35 FOR 35: THE TEXAS BOWL PODCAST

The Texas Bowl will in effect be a Baylor home game, since people tend to get excited when you haven't been to a bowl since 1994 when Grant Teaff was the coach, Notre Dame was a national power, and the corpse of Crystal Pepsi was still warm to the touch. Holly and ourselves discuss the BIG VOICE GUY, how very excited the Illini players are about this game, about the Illini's amazing globe-trotting schedule, and Eddie McGee, master of robots and other semi-animate technologies. [NAME REDACTED] GONNA HEADBUTT HIS WAY TO VICTORY.
We also call Mikel Leshoure "LeMikel Shoure," but only because we're editing his name to something even more fabulous, and not because we just suffered a small stroke HEY IS THAT TOAST MMMM TOAST.
Listen here, or in the player below.

Re: The Illini faithful
They were out on the town here in Houston last night. I must say, that is one ugly, obnoxious bunch.

I am currently in the Houston Airport
I have already been alerted by the scads of cheap clothing that I should not, in fact, mess with TECKSUS. I also just saw a woman that looked like an extra from the early 90s TV show “Dinosaurs”.
Get it?

So did Greyshirt
stereotype a large group on the basis of limited interaction with a small percentage of them?
I'm sorry, is anyone arguing that he's wrong?
It’s Houston, y’all. They should own their shortcomings by this point.

Should go alcohol, cheese, alcohol, alcohol, snow, alcohol, cow, alcohol, lake, alcohol as the top 10.
And if we were to do Minnesota it'd be

I guess then we should add Hmong refugees to the Wisconsin one then
La Crosse has the largest percentage of Hmong people in the U.S.

Although, now that I think about it, sending mountain tribal refugees from Southeast Asia
to Alabama ought to get them above 48th in the union in literacy, tons of toilet paper used, and shoe ownership per capita.

It's actually worse than it sounds
I went to a Catholic school. Girls were not allowed into the dorm after midnight. This terrible rule lead to me living off campus after freshman year and in fairness, also to the greatest moment of my dorm life.
I live down the hall from a football player. One night when he was about to get busted for having a girl in his room, he threw her into the hallway. When she asked “what do you want me to do?” He simply replied “Run Bitch!” and slammed his door

In other football player + females related content, Lived across the hall from Travis Thomas one summer (well,a friend did, I just got hammered and passed out on a stolen mattress on his floor most nights).
Well he dated a 85ish pound asian girl. From the sounds of things he enjoyed slamming into holes he definitely couldn’t fit thru and losing the game in all aspects of life.

24 is a regular football score. I thought it was a surprisingly smart call.
Baylor has no interest in tackling Leshoure.
I see the point
but if Baylor can come back and get to 20, then a FG would give them the lead. I’ve never been a fan of going for two if you’re ahead just to get a ‘more traditional’ football score, because when you miss it seems teams that do that always end up losing by a point.
But hey, it worked. I’m just being a douchey stick in the mud.

Yeah, but the path to 20 is unlikely in less than a half of football. Happens all the time over a whole game, but four scoring drives has to be considered less likely than three.
Fair enough
And at this rate, Baylor looks like they’ll be lucky enough to score, much less get to 20.

From what I gather
So far the “do the opposite of what podcast says” betting strategy would be making me a rich man.
(Sorry fearless leader, Holly, et. all)
I have to be a bitch
and point out that of the 12 bowl games so far, maybe two of them have been as interesting as Mount Union/Whitewater VI.

Come to think of it
UMD/Delta State fits in the slot, too. The NAIA title game was a bit of a turd, but only because I find extremely low-scoring defensive football to be mind-numbing. It’s not that they played a shitty game, it’s just that it was boring.

Wao
“Baylor gets its initial first down of the game..”
Remember when I said it looked like they were doing fine?
That comment hereby Zooked
Not really.
Baylor IS capable of putting a ton of points on the board in a big hurry. If they can force some quick outs, this could become a ball game by the end of the quarter.

No
never underestimate the power of the Zooker to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. He lost to Minnesota at home, after all.

For some reason
the quick and dirty “is a number prime?” test has always stuck in my head.
Is it greater than one? Is it even? If you add the digits up and repeat until you reduce to a single digit, do you get 3, 6, or 9? Does it end in a 0 or 5? Is it a palindrome? If the answers to any of these questions are “yes”, it ain’t prime, GTFO.

If Baylor's receivers are so much better than the Illini defensive backs
why are they repeatedly called for offensive pass interference?

The play action pass was down right risky though
Even though it did exactly what it was supposed to.
Not if you set it up by piss pounding the rock between the tackles
Which is exactly what they did. I didn’t understand the previous series, but this was a good drive.
