208 - Stanford's offense managed just 259 yards. That is 208 yards shy of its season average and its lowest output of the season. My biggest concern was that I had so many guys trying to protect me that they got in the way. I just saw a hole and I ran through it. And I just ran.
Some people kick old habits on New Year's Day.
The Badgers kick Pac-10 champions. They did it again Saturday, before 93,731 fans and a national television audience, beating Stanford, 17-9. Ron Dayne, the incomparable Heisman Trophy winner, added another trophy to his collection, grinding out 200 yards to earn Rose Bowl player of the game honors for the second consecutive year. And the band played on. Wisconsin may lack a long tradition of football excellence.
