A Pox On SDSU
Our beloved Tigers play once again this Saturday at 6:00, hosting the San Diego State University Aztecs. We’ll be tailgating no later than 2:00 with various folks bringing various sides. Mike & Sarah Messer are bringing the meat and the heat for the meat, buy your home through Flat Branch and insure your junk through Mike Messer Shelter Insurance. Well, maybe your stuff isn’t junk. Anyway.
San Diego State has a statistically outstanding offensive team, throwing for a bunch of yards, lots of passes down field, and a couple of good running backs. Their coach is Brady Hoke, which is a miserable name. Defensive coordinator is Rocky Long, a much better name, and formerly head coach at New Mexico. Both have faced the Tigers previously so should be well versed in our offensive razzle dazzle. Blah blah blah.
In a weird but fortuitous coincidence, though, “Aldon Smith” happens to be the Aztec phrase for “we will tackle your guys in the backfield and injure their spirit.” Even stranger, “Carl Gettis” is evidently Aztec slang for “smallpox”, which wiped out their population like he will their down field passes.
With that kind of linguistic luck going for us, along with the actual small pox infested towels we’ll put in their locker room, victory is assured. 48-17 is my prediction. See you at the tailgate in the land of the tall flagpoles.
As an aside, razzle dazzle makes me think of Stripes. Which makes me laugh. That’s the fact, Jack. on a side note, screw ku.
