You resort to more or less this phrase quite often, which I guess is part of the problem of the "eyeball test". If two people's eyeballs tell them different things, where do you go?
One place I have an impression that would agree with you (or at least agree with what I think you have been stating) is that Stanford under Shaw runs out of run formations and passes out of pass formations more often than under Harbaugh. That's formations - not a down and distance issue.
I haven't yet had the patience and time to check if that's really true or more based in my own changing expectations. Back in 2009 (season of this video) I was so ecstatic for Stanford to have an offense that could ever drive the length of the field that everything seemed quite wondrous. But if I am ever laid up sick at home I might start chomping through game tapes to see if that impression holds any water.
