Stanford was AWFUL last year. They were 4-8. Ohio was 6-6. Congrove had Ohio at 72 and Stanford at 90

I'd be willing to bet that was the across the board result.
OSU choked against Florida, but they were simply beaten by a better team last year. But they were also rebuilding last year, in anticipation of this year. They ALWAYS have one letdown game, and they had it early this year. For that I'm glad.
