Contrarian BCS championship game pick

[No coincidences]

Their road schedule is admittedly brutal, but if they somehow get through the next two weeks, I actually like their chances. Sub-par league, no conference championship game, outstanding coach, arguably the best coach in the nation no one really knows about yet....

Stanford.

Thoughts?

@ Notre Dame
@ Oregon
@ Washington
@ Arizona State
@ Cal

Probably won't win 'em all, but like I said, if they get these next two, you never know....

IMO, they have one of, if not, the best quarterbacks in the nation as well; in terms of an N.F.L. future: The best. Right now, Kellen Moore is the better clutch QB, but Luck's awareness, form, command, technique and release are redunkulously good.

The Cardinal have arguably the best O-line in the Pac-10, and if Black Leuders can get into a good rotation with Thomas Keiser, their defense is going to surprise.

Stanford looks good, but nobody's going into Autzen and coming out with a W this year. At least they get Arizona at home though.
