W_Is_For_Will 4 Pac-12 Champ implications in destroying U$C.
311polo 5 Convincing win over two good teams in SDSU and USC.  I don't think they are better than Bama, but based purely on the first two games of the season, they deserve to be ranked ahead of them.

moistats_ 5 As expected, Stanford steals the short-lived projection of USC winning the Pac-12. In fact, the wins against USC and San Diego State are much better than West Virginia's (although the neutral site against Tennessee is strong).

T-Thugs 6 Stanford manhandled USC this weekend and looks like the team to beat in the PAC.
VerySeriousBanana 6 Stanford's iffy first week versus their second - major improvements. USC wasn't a pushover but they sure looked like it. Stanford moves up one spot for me.

TheFlyingBoat 7 Oh god I love watching the Cardinal this year. After a shaky start to the first game of the season, they came out and stymied a great QB in a very interesting match where USC was able to put up yards but the Stanford defense would not allow them to put up anywhere near a commensurate number of points. Couple that with Bryce Love leading the ground attack and you have a solid Rose Bowl winner over Wisconsin and a Stanford Heisman.

A-Stu-Ute 8 I'm conflicted here. On the one hand Stanford won against USC, but it wasn't all that pretty or telling of a win. USC has looked very vulnerable the last 2 games and I dropped them out of my top 25 altogether. Bryce Love did look somewhat like himself again, but his Heisman campaign is off to a rocky start. On the other hand holding USC to 3 points was impressive, and defeating a conference foe in week 2 is pretty darn good. So... for now they're here, but I'm not expecting them to stay here.
