This will make the 5th time in 6 years that Stanford has played U.SC either the 2nd or 3rd game of the season. I think we should just get used to early to mid September games vs. the T.rojans.
It's all about the TV ratings. If everyone played "warm-up" games in the first 3 weeks, then there would be less viewership those weeks. So you get games like Under Stanford Control (again)-Alabama in week one.

1996: Oregon State, with 15 straight Pac-10 losses in tow, sacked Hutchinson 11 times in Corvallis. The saddest, most inexplicable loss I ever saw in person.

2007, 41.5 point favorite, lost to team in red and white. Saddest loss I ever saw...for the other guys. ;D
