Well this is interesting. AVCA and Volleytalk rate Stanford over Washington. Pablo, however, says Washington is the favorite even playing at Stanford.
I guess we'll see what happens.

I guess we'll see what happens. after Stanford got quacked, I was leaning towards Washington, and then I saw everyone in PTW pick Stanford, so I doubled down on my Washington pick. we’ll see what happens. honestly there’s not a single result that would surprise me. even sweeps.

All comes down to *if*...and it seems to be a rather big if....Sami Francis can play. Otherwise UW 3-1. I thought she was "a go" for that Oregon match. Would have been way tighter had she been available.

I like Washington here
also, Stanford is winless at home this season and has only won one set in two home matches, though those two losses have been to the current top two teams in the country

Would have been way tighter had she been available. I think this misses the mark. Francis doesn't change the margin for a team like Stanford. All Stanford really needs is to serve in, and for two of Kipp/Baird/Rubin to have solid hitting nights.

I think this match largely depends on the quality of play on Stanford's side of the net. They need to limit their service errors and have 2 of 3 pins hitting .250 or better. They do that, and they will win most matches, including this one. Unlike Oregon, Washington isn't a particularly strong backcourt defense team. Stanford needs to keep the ball in and make the Huskies play the ball.

I'm curious to see how the Huskies do against the Cardinal block. Guessing that they haven't seen a block this good all season (having Francis would help the Cardinal here).

Stanford needs to keep the ball in and make the Huskies play the ball. I'm thinking along the same lines. We've got two teams that don't exactly have the greatest floor D. Both teams put an emphasis on tough serving to force their opponent into OOS attacks. Stanford will almost certainly have more SEs, but they tend to be a little more efficient at home (knock on wood). Stanford can win without Francis, but the Francis block is really helpful whenever the opposing team is OOS. If I'm forced to pick a score, I'd say U-Dub wins it 3-1 because they'll be a little more trustworthy in those tight sets where one or two plays at the end make the difference. Stanford is still making too many of those stupid little mistakes like barely hitting out, serving into the net or long almost every time out of a TO, passing free balls over the net, letting an obvious tip fall, trying to hit a tight set through a well-formed block, etc. I know U-Dub is prone to some of the same errors, but I think their magnitude will be less than the Card's.

The team profiles are useful and I appreciate it, but unless they are confined to Pac 12 play (in which case we are talking about a very small sample size), then I'm not sure they are super-useful given that Stanford's schedule has been so much tougher than UW's.
