With roughly 3:00 left on the clock, every single negative emotion the human species is capable of producing washed over me. Cameron Scarlett had just run for 6 yards on first down to take Stanford to the Cal 27 yard line. Stanford had already driven 38 yards in 7 plays, and I knew exactly what was going to happen. Stanford was going to run the ball on 2nd and four for three yards, and run off 40 seconds. Then Stanford was going to run the ball on 3rd and 1 for the first down, and run off another 40 seconds.
