Let’s Pump the Breaks on all the Love-McCaffrey Comparisons

Let’s not downplay Love’s performance this past weekend in Sydney: He finished with 180 yards rushing and one touchdown in Stanford’s blowout to Rice, 62-7. He looked very good in his first appearance for the year over a clearly outmatched Rice. For this game, Love was “the man”. However, in every article you’ve come across all during the offseason and since this win, we’ve already seen way too many phrases like, “ Love can replace McCaffrey” and “it looks like Stanford has found its replacement for McCaffrey with Love”. Google, “Bryce Love” and pick an article then hit “Ctrl + F” and start typing in “McCaffrey” and you’ll see his name show up at least once in almost every article you read.
