Stanford wins.  I don't care what score.  Just win the bloody game.  (And suffer no injuries.)


Sidenote: As is recent somewhat-consistent tradition, we're hosting our local watch parties in the same bar (but not the same seating area, there's a wall) as the U$C alumni club.  Part of this is because every bar in town will be focused on the Texas-kal game, and getting a bar to show a Pac-12 matchup can be tough (also, parking, seating, etc. works at this bar).  Out of the blue comes a snarky post from a recent grad who hasn't shown up in at least a year first asking if we'd be sharing the bar with U$C, and then declaring that s/he/it won't be coming to the watch party because of the likely game result and co-location.

Way to publicly crap on an event hosted by volunteer alumni when you never even show up to any events.  And I guess upsets never happen.  Siiiiigh.

Also, I'm cordial with a couple of the $C alumni young alum poobahs.  Their fanbase here isn't that insufferable (maybe because we're far removed from the safety of California numbers). 

Stanford can still win!
