I have mixed emotions for this game. Part of me wants Stanford to lose so the Ducks can play for the Pac-12 championship but if we win out that means another Rose Bowl. Nothing wrong with the Rose Bowl but for some reason the Orange Bowl sounds more fun and I think we'd have a better match up. Also if we don't play in the Pac-12 championship Mariota would have more time off to heal up.
I thought the football gods had it in for me this year. Anyone notice that the Trojan that intercepted the pass cut inside for some weird reason? I didn't get a view downfield but it looked like he had no one to beat but Hogan and could have easily had a pic 6 if he went to the sidelines. Then how they lost yardage running to get FG position.... It was nice to see Stanford go down though after all the gloating they did last week. But Mariota better get healthy in time for our Pac12 championship game, and the Rose Bowl if we win it.

My buddies & I noticed the same thing. If Dion Bailey runs up the sideline after that INT, I don't know if he scores, but he would have gotten a lot further up the field. It did look like a pick 6 when he jumped the route. I'm glad it all worked out, but SC almost blew all of the chances that Stanford game them. How about on the game winning FG drive? SC drives down to Stanford 21 yard line (easy FG range). All they need to do is milk the cock a little. First Down = Minus 3 yard rush. Ouch. Okay, no more negative plays. 2nd Down = Minus 6 yards. What? All of the sudden it's a 46 yard FG attempt. That was horrid execution! Fortunately, SC somehow got out of there with the win.
