It would be hard for one or the other to lead to a defense giving up 6.85 yards per rush against FBS opponents (sacks adjusted). Note from Douglas: That is former Notre Dame commit Paulson Adebo, the Irish finishing as runner-ups to the Cardinal for the Texas product, a two-time first-team All-Pac 12 cornerback who could have, in theory, helped keep Notre Dame a bit more competitive in two Playoff appearances where its defensive backs were exposed. But in the last few years, the recruiting has dropped off rather significantly, and it’s starting to show on the field. Stanford has always found specific niches where they were successful, and longtime defensive backs coach Duane Akina has been a bright spot - current Saints corner Paulson Adebo was just drafted after 2020. But even more than the scheme, there’s just a talent difference for the Cardinal right now. It’s definitely more player-based in terms of the breakdown on that play. Would you put the onus on the scheme or on players just getting beat? ![]() I don’t say that solely because of that disaster of a losing play including that tackling catastrophe, Stanford has given up 10 explosive scores this season. My primary takeaway was that the Cardinal is prone to giving up big plays. I missed most of the broadcast shots of fans sleeping through Stanford’s first chance at an FBS win in a long while. More precisely, I saw the final six or seven minutes from a stool at a blackjack table in the Excalibur in Las Vegas, only a short walk from Allegiant Stadium. And the game ended up being quite worthwhile! But as someone who is typically still working on Saturday nights, the one Saturday night I had free was this one ( after I covered David Shaw’s son catching a game-winning touchdown pass, no less ), and the chance to show a friend the underrated Stanford tailgate scene. The Irish host the Cardinal on Saturday at 7:30 ET on NBC.ĭF: Wait, you were at Stanford’s 28-27 loss to Oregon State as a fan? You chose to go to that game? I ask this only somewhat in jest, why?ĪS: The simple answer: it’s college football! I also love the Stanford band, which was their usual incorrigible delight. He deserves one for turning around these answers on shorter notice than usual, given the effects of Las Vegas delayed much work around here. The only regret is both games are in South Bend, so a San Francisco beer cannot be personally bought for Alex Simon of The Mercury News.
