I hate to lose- to anyone- but I think the ugly Stanford loss will ultimately prove to be a unique teaching moment (read: blessing) for the team and help immensely in the quest for 10. Though he'd never admit it, I wouldn't be surprised if GA, however much disappointed in his team's performance, was deep-down okay with the loss, as it served as a reality check, a gut check, a wake up call to each and every Husky that this year's team ain't last year's team, and there is tons of work to do if another NC is to be won.
