Relax.
UofA did not look that great. I doubt the team is looking ahead. This is life as a top 10 team. Some schools will fall apart before the kickoff. Others will bring their A+ game for a half and then wilt. Only the lucky few play it close the whole game, and very few pull off the upset. And at this point it is clear that Stanford will be favored in every single game they play until they get upset. So either an upset will happen or they will be BCS champs.
So there is no real need to get frustrated by the emerging upset because that is the ONLY way this team will lose.
As far as this game goes, I suspect the final score will be 38-14 or 38-7.
Defense has not allowed a single point, and the team is up by 17. Yet the worries remain. This IS how top 5 teams play.
