If you are looking for positives you could look at the boxscore.  For people who only care about winning--well, it will be little consolation.  But it has some remarkable highlights.  Andrew was 27/31.  Time of possession was Stanford 42 minutes to OSU 18.  We had 590 yards of offense.  We held OSU a touchdown under its average.  OSU was forced to punt 5 times--a rarity for them.  Terrence Brown had his first interception.  Stepfan Taylor had a career best 177 yards.  Ty Montgomery had 7 receptions for 120 yards--a breakout game. 

Frankly, anyone looking at those stats without knowing the score would say that Stanford appeared to have played very well.  By comparison, I felt much, much worse after the Oregon loss.
