In college football, credibility and perception are so important. Whenever David Shaw or a member of the Cardinal coaching staff steps into a recruit's living room, he will have credibility because of 2012...(assuming we don't completely collapse or something the rest of the year. Which, to be honest, unless the offensive play improves, can't entirely be written off as a possibility.)
From what I understand, the 2007 victory was the largest upset in modern college football history. We were more than 40 point underdogs that game. As bad as Nunes played at times today, he had brilliant spurts of play as well. Tavita Pritchard was plain awful.
