Week in Review
(Week ending 9/30/01)
Our publishing week began last Monday with ME-97's Report
Card-inal from the ASU victory. As expected, high marks were
earned across the board although the defensive secondary needs to
provide better deep coverage, especially when protecting a lead.
Gail Tate's Showtime!
article got us all emotionally charged for the U$C game as she
urged everyone to road-trip to the Southland for this key
matchup.
ME-97 also authored a lengthy
interview with Josh Childress, our incoming hoops phenom
recruit. This interview provides some insight into how Josh ended
up on The Farm and how he sees his role on the basketball squad.
On Tuesday, Tree Boy's BootPowerRatings
was released. In the "Shocker of the Week" category,
the BootComputer is still high on the Cardinal and down on the
Evil Empire in the East Bay.
Chad and Hulk released their updated Stanford
Football Recruiting Table. This should be a mandatory
bookmark for any true Cardinalmaniacâ„¢.
Terry looked at all the records that
some of our football heroes are currently chasing. Randy
Fasani, Brian Allen, Kerry Carter, Mike Biselli, Ryan Wells and
Luke Powell are all gunning for various Stanford season and
career marks.
Mark DeVaughn provided another in-depth preview with his Yesterday U.
Revisited story. His final score prediction was not too far
off, by the way!
We went deep into The Bootleg's archives and
re-published U$C Song Girl
Research, a story that initially appeared in our 10/15/94
issue. Boy we had some tough assignments back then!
More
updates on the recruiting front was provided by ME-97 on
Thursday. He even got some inside scoop from one of our recruits'
mother!
A
Little Trojan History is another re-published story from a
1994 issue. And yes, thank you very much, we were a little
"out there" back then!

Posts of the Week this time featured strong posts from Gerald
McGowin, irishguru, ME-97 and Emeritus.
The
Road Warrior is a behind-the-scenes look at road game-day
preparations for Stanford football players. Ex-player Guru
provides the insight.
Emeritus provided another look back at a classic Stanford
football game from years past with his 1979 U$C
Pigskin Flashback.
On Friday, Tree Boy kept at it with another Kibbles &
Bits piece. Did you know that Stanford was #1 in the Pac-10
in rushing offense and U$C was #10?
On Saturday night, YCF provided the recap of
Stanford's 21-16 victory.
On Sunday, the updated
BootPool standings were released. Our own Chad tied for first
this past week while Tree Boy is tied for first in the cumulative
standings.
Also on Sunday, TheInsiders.com
Top 25 College Football Poll was released. After feeling
severe pressure from the entire Bootleg
staff, the pollsters finally moved Stanford
into the Top 25.
Finally, ME-97 published his Report
Card-inal from the victory over Troy. Only the "Special
Teams" squad received a poor grade.
Yes, that's 18 articles from TheBootleg.com
in the past week. We need the bye-week as much as our undefeated
team!
