Stanford Thoughts

Topic

I watched a bunch of highlights and looked at their stats.

Mills is a good passer but limited in and out of the pocket.

OL seems decent but not great.

WRs are strength of the team. RB’s decent, should improve over time.

They pass a lot.

Defensively they are really bad against the run, nor are they good against the pass. They are capable of getting some pressure but don’t appear to have any real playmakers.

Their two best guys (CB Adebo & OL Little) opted out.

They will complete some passes on us but if we get anything from our safeties we should be fine.

We should run all over these guys. If we cant, then our RBs are Jags, which sans Davis they might be.

I would really enjoy it if John Donovan called some more outside runs like stretch plays against Stanford to take advantage of Otton and our WR blocking.

YES! And did that with Cam Davis in the game a lot more!

I think Shaw will try and run early he likes to run and see’s a weakness. They passed alot last year and when they played us they went run heavy because they were gashing every first down. He will make UW stop the run but if we contain not stop the run get in 3 & 3-4 our pressure will break their QB and receivers and will get turnovers. Defensively this is not the same Stanford we should be able to run and pass. If we come out aggressive we shoulod win 34-17.
