Actually the way to defend it is double team JJ down near the goal line.  Because he’s not gonna let anybody get inside his arms. He’s too good at keeping them on his back. Take your chances with the others.  Seriously, everybody knows Stanford gonna run that play. If they don’t they’re freaking idiots.  

And what are defenses supposed to do when Costello throws it to Parkinson in one-on-one coverage on the other side of the field instead?

I mean you are right; you bracket JJ and take your chances with the other receivers, but in the end, we will have a one on one match-up between one tall receiver and an undersized DB somewhere in the field, and as you point out, Costello throws those perfectly.
