Stanford really really has a harsh schedule.
Well -- yeah -- being a fan of their WVB team since 1994 (just before their second of eight titles overall) -- plus, being a grad-alum -- I did not want to seem too 'homer-istic', myself, vis a' vis just focusing upon them. But MAN, what an OOC schedule: 6 out of 8 preseason matches against Top-ten opposition. The two matches that I previously mentioned are the first real tests for MINN, SU, TX and FL. SU's (Stanford's) lineup is: FL, TX, Penn St., MINN, NEB, & Brigham Young!
