My recollection was that occurred in the 4th quarter when they were totally gassed and we kept running Power because we could. Man, those were some good times.

True. But it was true all game; Stanford ran 50 times and passed 22. In most passing situations, Stanford called run; by my count, 5 of the 6 passing situations the team saw that game.

The reason Stanford won that game had little to do with surprise, though I suppose individual play calls may have shocked. It was because:

1) Stanford ran a ton
2) Was really successful at it
3) And therefore never saw too many passing situations.

It was the apotheosis of the exact opposite approach teejers imagines.
