35 FOR 35: THE POINSETTIA BOWL

In the sixth installment of 35 for 35, Adam Jacobi is our special guest because he went to Los Angeles once, and that is more than enough of a resume to discuss the city of San Diego in depth. Topics discussed:
- Wondering how Jack Hanna got his hands on the rare rapemonkey they keep at the San Diego Zoo
- A note on a resemblance between Brady Hoke and an actor on a popular HBO show. That's right! It's Deborah Ann Woll!
- A discussion on Craig James fondness for grilled poop, which we just made up.
- Pouring one out for the Ricky Dobbs for Heisman campaign.
Listen here, or listen below in the player. If nothing else you get the most aintgiveafuck Neil Young song ever as intro and only 14:46 seconds of perfectly wasted time. Adam's cat gets the final word, appropriately enough.

Here's the full quote:
“I don’t want to put a square peg into a round hole,” he said. “I want to have balance on the field on offense, defense and special teams. … We want to run the football and be aggressive. Play with a relentless mindset.”
To anyone who watched Florida football this year, it’s astounding.
Well, his offense was pretty relentless.

This is suddenly looking like a different game. Reminds me of last night. Seriously, the bowl layoff is too long.
The weirdest thing
usually if you’re doing well against the triple option in the beginning, you are generally adequately prepared for it and will do pretty well against it throughout the game. Usually the only time it starts to get more effective is at the end of games when the defenses are tired.
did he say "inner ears pinned back"?

ESPN just did a 30 for 30 show about the SMU death penalty, and he was actually kind of bragging about how cool it was to get all the shit he got, without coming out and saying he got a lot of money and bennies.

In his book, he briefly mentions it
and claims he went to SMU to be with his girlfriend and was unaware the other players were getting paid.
He is a special kind of idiot. He’s the moron that thinks he’s smart and likable, so he doesn’t even think it’s possible you could have a negative opinion of him

I really was all in last year, and to see how it all fell apart this year pretty much sucked. Time to move on the whatever bag of ass the Vikes put in at QB. Yay.

This argument gets so tiresome
If the SEC team wins the game, it’s because they were the superior team. If the SEC team loses it’s because of some factor other than the fact that the other team beat them.
LSU is a power run based offense that should have thrived in less than ideal conditions. PSU ran the Spread HD and should have been more negatively effected by bad turf.
LSU lost because Penn State beat them, plain and simple
