"What about the quarterback?" Blake asked, and then saw Adam roll his eyes, which made Blake chuckle, "I know, I know, there are too many quarterbacks worth watching this year. Yes, but the two starting quarterbacks are not included."
This year is generally considered to be a great year for quarterbacks, including Stanford University's Andrew Luck, Texas Christian University's Andy Dalton, and Auburn University's Cam Newton. , University of Washington's Jack Locker, Florida State University's Christian Ponder, etc... These are all quarterbacks with first-round pick potential, even the No. 1 pick. It is not unusual for Xiu to be born among them.
Badgers quarterback Scott Tolzien and Bruins quarterback Kevin Price are both fifth-round picks. The outstanding performance of the two teams on the offensive end relied entirely on the excellent performance of the offensive line and tactical coordination. Compared to quarterbacks, the observation value of offensive linemen and receivers is much higher.
"I'm not talking about the starting quarterback, but the Chinese quarterback." Black said enthusiastically, "Didn't you hear? In the last quarter of the last game of the league, the Bruins' starting quarterback was injured. …”
Before he finished speaking, Adam waved his hand, interrupting Blake's follow-up words, "I know, I know, it's so miraculous, I've said it countless times, even if I want to ignore it, it's impossible." Adam's expression was calm, Unmoved at all, he glanced at Blake sideways, "Tell me, you have been in the league for so many years. How many times have you seen similar situations? Occasionally, in a game, you have a flash of inspiration and perform bravely, but in fact, ability Ordinary, fleeting.”
Blake chuckled, "You mean, that guy doesn't pay attention to value?"
"In the league, the most indispensable thing is genius, and the least valuable thing is genius." Adam did not answer directly, but said in a nonsensical way, "The point is, that backup quarterback is not even a genius."
In the past three weeks, there has been endless discussion about the game between the Bruins and the Trojans. The Chinese-American quarterback almost appeared out of nowhere and attracted countless attention. But the problem is that this quarterback is obviously a senior, but he has no information or history. He seems to have popped out of thin air overnight.
Even if scouts were interested in an evaluation, there's no way to start.
"So you're saying that you're not curious at all about how that quarterback did it?" Blake crossed his hands on his chest and looked at Adam with an inquiring look on his face, seeming to be very interested in Adam's understatement.
No matter how real the quarterback is, what is certain is that he was indeed a topic of conversation and became the savior of the Bruins out of nowhere; and there was no game information before that game. , the mysterious color becomes even more intense, as if a veil has been covered, making it difficult for people to see through.
The scouts Black knows are all more or less curious. Even if they are looking at good shows and jokes, they are still curious. But Adam didn't care at all?
Adam shrugged nonchalantly, looking relaxed, content, calm and steady. After being in the league for so many years and seeing countless ups and downs, the most important thing he has learned is: don't believe in one hit. "Should I be curious?" A rhetorical question with profound meaning. "If I remember correctly, the starting quarterback for the Bruins today was not the guy who jumped out of a rock."
Not only Black, but also several other scouts nearby laughed at this sarcastic joke, with a hint of disdain in their expressions: Yes, the four who can't even compete for starting qualifications Shooting guard, even if he becomes a blockbuster, so what?
The conversation ended here, and both Adam and Blake turned their heads and looked straight ahead, because the game was about to start.
"Everyone come around, with me as the center, come around." Rick Neuhesse shouted, calling for the players to gather around. Everyone gathered around Rick, kneeling on one knee, with glaring eyes. Rick took a deep breath, "Why don't you put your right hands on the knees of your teammates? Be quiet, listen to each other's heartbeats, feel the temperature of this moment, and hear the shouts outside. ? Today is today!"
Rick's voice was slightly hoarse, and you could feel his tension. He looked around and landed on everyone, "The Bruins have been waiting for this day for eleven years, and now, we are finally here. We're here. But we're not here to get here, we're here to win and take our Rose Bowl home! I will never accept a defeat, and neither will the fans outside the locker room. Won't!"
Simple words, but as heavy as a thousand stones, they hit every player's chest impassionedly. "You all know the next process. I don't want to repeat it again. It's best that I don't need to repeat it! Remember, no one, I mean anyone, no one can act wild on our home court! This is our ’s territory! We are the masters!”
Rick clenched his fist and smashed it down hard, "This is your game, young people! For senior players..." After a pause, Rick took a serious look at the youthful pictures. The faces, especially those senior students, said, "This is the last game! So, don't regret, don't regret, don't hesitate, let us do our best! Because, you will never forget this game!" "
His fists were raised high, "Let us defeat them!" Rick shouted excitedly, and all the players stood up in unison, shouting, roaring, and roaring crazily. The entire locker room was like a furious sea fighting. The waves are turbulent and continuous.
"Ahhh!" Deafening roars raged in the locker room. Lu Ke felt that the blood all over his body was boiling. The shouts were tearing at his throat, hot and intense, as if the sleeping lion in his body was waking up, thirsting for blood. Eager to fight, eager to kill! Every cell in the body is responding to the call and can’t wait!
This is true indoors as well as outdoors.
The drumbeats became more and more passionate, the shouts became more and more crazy, and the air became more and more boiling. As the visiting team, the Badgers were the first to take the stage, and all the spectators cheered in unison, welcoming the contestants of the two teams for tonight's game with the most enthusiasm.
The entire Rose Bowl was packed. As the home court of the Bruins, more than 60,000 supporters came to the scene to express their support for the home team and look forward to the team winning the championship again since 1986. As the visiting team, the Badgers had nearly 30,000 supporters. Famous fans traveled thousands of miles to Los Angeles, hoping to witness their team's feat of winning the championship on their opponent's territory; in addition, there were about 10,000 neutral fans cheering, celebrating, and partying. Looking forward to an exciting showdown.
But at this moment, the audience, regardless of the home team or the away team, applauded, whistled, and shouted, igniting the enthusiasm of the entire Rose Bowl, and welcomed the warriors' debut with the most enthusiastic applause and shouts.
"It's really the last game." John felt like he was about to suffocate, gasping for air, but his lungs still couldn't capture oxygen. The nervous look made Lu Ke couldn't help but laugh, and said, "Don't worry, you will adapt after you play! Enjoy every second of this game, this is your stage!"
"This is your game too." John patted Lu Ke's chest and said sincerely.
Lu Ke nodded in affirmation, and his smile became brighter, "Of course, I know. So, are you ready? Let's score some touchdowns." Those cheerful words seemed like he was the starting quarterback. , and John was like a starting wide receiver; as if the touchdown was just a grab... The two exchanged glances and laughed at the same time.
"Bambi? Bambi!" A voice came from the front. Lu Ke and John looked up, and then saw the gazes of their teammates, "Bambi, go to the front, John, you too."
"What's wrong?" Lu Ke didn't know why. He passed through his teammates and came to the front. Then he saw Kevin Price standing at the front. However, at this time, Kevin also gave up his position. He ignored Lu Ke and John with a stiff look on his face, and looked elsewhere with stiff eyes, exuding high morale all over his body.
Glancing at Kevin from the corner of his eyes, Lu Ke didn't pay too much attention. He and John walked to the front one after another. Not only them, but Logan, Marcus and others also stood at the front. Logan Waving with joy on his face, he kept jumping on the spot like an active flea, "Bambi, come here quickly, the senior players will lead the team into the stadium today."
In rugby matches, players rush onto the field in large numbers. This is a traditional custom. However, there is no hard requirement for who leads the team. It is decided by the team itself.
Just now the Badgers were led by an offensive team that led them all the way to the Rose Bowl; when it was the Bruins' turn, they chose seniors.
Lu Ke's mood couldn't help but surge, not because he was lamenting the last game, but because of the overwhelming shouts from the Rose Bowl, which made his blood boil. It seemed that he could hear the call from the stadium in his ears: Fight! fighting! fighting! The impassioned emotions are like a stormy wave, bursting out energy that can penetrate clouds and crack rocks!
Standing at the front of the team, the seniors hit each other with fists, exchanged glances, and yelled at each other. The light in their eyes intertwined, and their emotions reached their peak, and no one could control it. The ground began to jump in place, like a boxer preparing to appear, fully mobilizing the enthusiasm of the body.
Suddenly, the coach's command came across the sky, "Play!" The cheerleaders and team mascots standing in the front began to swarm out, and the players also rushed forward in a swarm, rushing towards the bright ball. Halo, rush to the roaring cheers, rush to the boiling arena!
Shout, burst!
