Games 11 and 12 last year (kal and SJSU) were puke-worthy and will live in in infamy. Back-to-back crap performance(s) against eminently beatable teams to wrap up the season--after the inspiration of upsetting Louisville. Pitiful.

IMO we have to be willing to admit that both the Syracuse game and the Louisville game were won with a lot of good fortune for Stanford and significant help from our opponent. Yes, we took advantage of the situation, and that is not a given. We could easily have lost anyway. BUT without our opponent making several atypical errors we could not have won. The Kal and SJSU games were more who we really were. Yes, neither team was a juggernaut, but they were, on average, better than we were. They played their "normal" game and that was enough. Our performance was not atypical of last year's team. If that is crap, well, that is what we were. What does that mean about TT, if anything? It means we must be significantly better next year or he will be gone.
