Stanford's loss to Northwestern was bad, but it could be the catalyst the team needs.
Clayton Thorson scrambling for a 42-yard touchdown on a 3rd and 7. Kevin Hogan throwing a game-ending interception into the hands of Kyle Queiro. Stanford's offense converting only 20% of its third-downs.
Spencer Hall of EDSBS summed it up best:
Like, the only team I've seen so far that should feel really, really bad about themselves is Stanford.

I am not here though to talk about what Stanford did wrong or how they can improve.
