Stanford had a 12-yard advantage (per possession) in field position, stayed above 80 percent in leverage rate, and finished every scoring opportunity with seven points. It is almost impossible to lose doing that. That's just a staggeringly high level of execution, even if you give up some big plays along the way (and Stanford did). But a lot of UCLA's yards came when the Bruins were well behind, so aside from a few plays in the first half, it's hard to fault the defense much, either.

That thin defense is still a bit of a concern, but good gracious, this offense is just a killing machine at the moment...

I like that characterization.
