Stanford enters Thursday night’s game at 10-8 overall with a 2-4 conference record. They play an Oregon State team that is absolutely terrible and that is about as respectful as it gets. They are 4-14 with their best win coming against Prairie View A&M or Kent State and their last win was before Christmas. They are pretty good at being bad but this isn’t about tonight’s game as much as it is for the rest of the season for the Cardinal.
Mediocrity has summed up Stanford for the better portion of this decade and while a new coach needs time to adjust, this year feels no different than most have for the better part of the 2010’s.
