Didn't see this coming until about midway through the 3rd Quarter as SC couldn't stop the Stanford Running Attack and Men of Troy QB Matt Barkley couldn't get his Weapons into the End Zone.

Crime Scene...Palo Alto California...Harvard of the West...PAC 12 BCS Juggernaut in the Bay...Stanford Stadium aka the FARM

The Stanford Cardinals make it an unprecedented 4 Games in a Row over the USC Trojans which means SC Senior QB and Heisman Leader Matt Barkley will leave SC having never beat the Stanford Cardinals or his Classmates. Stunning it was but the Trojans were absolutely manhandled Up Front by Stanford Red all game long.

The Cards go for 202 Yards on the Ground and muster some 400 Yards plus on the SC Trojans and Monte Kiffin led Defense. The fascinating part to all this non sense is that the Trojans lost both of their Running Back in the 1st Quarter and had 26 Yards Rushing on the Night.

Matt Barkley threw for 254 Yards on 20 for 41 and 2 Picks. SC WR Marquise Lee showed up with 100 Yards receiving an where was Robert Woods. He had 4 Grabs for 38 Yards and they have to get that Young Man the Pigskin somehow someway. He is way too explosive not to get Touches even as a Running Back.  

Stanford RB Stephan Taylor from Mansfield, Texas, right outside of Dallas, ran all over the Men of Troy with 159 Yards on 27 Totes and a long run of 59 Yards. He also put 1 in the Trojans End Zone.  Stanford QB Josh Nunes also dazzled with his Feet looking on a Few Runs like he was going out of bounds or sliding only to make Trojans miss and get more Yards. Yes Nunes threw Two INTs to the Trojans but he also put Two TDs in the Trojan End Zone including the Game-Winner and Pandemonium ensued on the Farm.

Stanford now goes to 3-0 and the Trojans move to 2-1 and they both have the Quack Attack on theri Menu. SC might have dashed their National Title Hopes but if your going to lose..lose in September or Early as they say.

The FARM never looked like that when I was growing up....absolutely going Chiquita Bananas Nuts after this one and Party Stanford Red like its 1999.
