Via Cosby Sweaters:
Stanford’s senior RB, Jeremy Stewart was very adamant about teammate Ty Montgomery not taking the Oklahoma State kickoff return out of the end zone. In fact, he was so serious about it that he took matters into his own hands and turned into a defender. Stewart took Montgomery down with a tackle at the goal line, thus stopping any chance of a return past the 20-yard line. I’m not sure how this will go over in the locker room, but Stewart should be moved to covering kickoffs in the future.

Stanford sophomore kicker Jordan Williamson will be remembered as the goat of the Fiesta Bowl after missing three field goals in a 41-38 loss to Oklahoma State Monday. Though he went 1-for-4 on field goal attempts, including misses at the end of regulation and in the first overtime, he can always roll with the Ray Finkle excuse for the field goal missed in overtime. The laces were...

When a young kick returner feels like the world is his and he can easily go +105 yards on a kickoff return TD, the second return man sometimes needs to jump in and save the day. Usually it is by holding their hands out and saying, "no, no, no," but sometimes it takes more than just vocals. As in this case when a Stanford Cardinals play tackles his own to make sure they...

It's easy to blame it on kicker Jordan Williamson, but should we blame it on the holder instead? I mean what kind of rookie puts the laces in right? Stanford went on to lose the game 41-38 after this field goal miss.
