March 19, Stanford University Football Arena.

It's early spring, but the temperature in San Francisco is high enough for players to play in short sleeves. The Mediterranean climate is like this, coupled with the high humidity in the Bay Area, since March, the grass and trees are budding, and the spring is full of life.

In the home stadium of the red and white team, hundreds of students and some die-hard fans with front-row season tickets were taking their seats one after another, and Bill Ferrari, who was in charge of arranging student support and cheerleading halftime performances, rushed to the center of the stadium after telling the students of the sports department all the matters.

Last year, a month after the start of his sophomore year, he was elected chairman of the Ministry of Culture and Sports, so there are many things that cannot be shirked, and in order to successfully run for president of the student government in his junior year, he must also ensure that the Ministry of Culture and Sports does a good job.

Today's game is a popular friendly in the off-season, and the away team is USC Troy from Los Angeles.

There are generally two reasons for holding friendly matches, one is that the coaching staff feels that the offensive and defensive drills within the team are not enough to make a breakthrough in the offensive and defensive groups, so they find a strong team to lose a big game and play a role in the lead; The second is that the two teams exchange experiences with each other, which plays a role in running in and maintaining the feeling of play.

The cause of this game was a little different, the Trojans were purely for the captain of the Red and White team, John Wilt.

The top quarterback in the college league has become the favorite to win the draft after finishing second on the three-man list for the Heizman Award and the Walter Camp Award.

As early as the beginning of January, the TV media led by ABC Sports and CBS Sports have begun to predict the NFL draft market this year, although John Wilt failed to win the Heizman Award, but the vast majority of commentators and commentators believe that his strength is worthy of the Hezman Award, and it is even easier to win the NFL champion, while Mike Rozier, who won the Heizman Award, has a much lower voice.

The new NFL league year often starts in mid-to-late March, and then there is intense preparation for the draft camp, and John Wirt, who is the favorite for the top pick, may not be able to devote himself to any training and games of the college team in the future, so the USC coaching staff, who wanted to sharpen their team, flew to San Francisco with all the members to play such a friendly game.

There's a reason why Stanford University football stadiums were chosen to play the game, as the campuses of Los Angeles' two Park Ten Leagues, UCLA and USC are notoriously insecure, while Stanford, although it doesn't have a gate, has pretty good security nearby.

Thanks to the fact that the Stanford football team has always been a top team, it was the top six in the country at its peak, and the perennial high income has made the football field better than that of USC, and even has the NFL championship game and the record of the Super Bowl held here, so the team managers will start playing on the home court of the red and white team as soon as they sum up.

Naturally, there was no TV station to broadcast the non-regular games and playoff invitational tournaments, and even the audience was only a few students and season ticket owners who called to inform them, but Bill was very interested in playing. The reason is very simple, with the blessing of John Wirther, the strength of the two teams is much worse, and the red and white team can easily play Nangar.

"You're the close-end forward Joe Montana said, and you look average, isn't superstar Joe looking away?"

As the two teams shook hands, the Trojan team's left tackle suddenly made a sarcastic remark about the number 88 he was passing by.

After Bill shook hands with his previous player, his right hand snapped into the man's right hand like a pincer, "And you, my friend, don't even have a chance to be looked away by the superstar, because you can't even get his eyes in." ”

Normally, it is not possible for the attacking players of both teams to be on the pitch at the same time, so this activity before and after the game is the moment when the two are closer.

It seems that Joe Montana has a good effect on the show mentioning the new generation of players, and even the members of the USC varsity team remember their names.

The left tackler had no intention of letting go, and seemed to be ready to teach No. 88 a lesson at the handshake stage.

But Mr. Ferrari is not a vegetarian either, and his strength is well known throughout the team, and the two men competed against each other.

Originally, the two team members formed a long line, and the home team stood to shake hands with the visiting players, and the two did this, and the players behind the Trojan team had to stop, and several assistant coaches from both sides even came out to see what was going on, and then reported back to their respective coaches.

The friendly was originally relaxed, and the two players did not violate the rules of the court, so everyone waited for the result for a while, hoping that their own players would win the match, and some players even cheered for their teammates.

"Separate, separate! If you don't separate me again, I'll give you a yellow card. ”

After three minutes passed, the referee who couldn't wait ran over and asked the red and white team's No. 88 to finish shaking hands with the Trojan team's No. 63.

By this time, Bill's hand had turned purple red, and several finger prints appeared on the back of his hand, and the left interceptor was not much better, probably because his skin was already dark, and his right hand looked even more miserable.

"My teammates will teach you a lesson and let you know that it's not good to be famous."

Before the man took a step, he let out another trash talk.

If it weren't for the fact that the referee hadn't gone far, Beal would have been convinced that the left tackle would have been able to spit out words like Bichi and F*** out of his mouth.

"Maybe I'll learn a lesson, but you won't even be famous."

It seems that this man has a grudge against him for being famous, so Bill pokes him in the sore spot again.

After the handshake, the captains of both sides guessed the coin and fought for the ball, and the Trojan team got the ball, and the special service teams of both sides kicked off and began to attack and defend at the 37-yard line in the enemy half.

The members of the offensive group are moving in small increments at this time to keep themselves warm. John Velt walked into Eighty-Eight, "What did that fat dead man tell you?" ”

"He said he wanted me to look good and asked my teammates to teach me a lesson."

Bill replied truthfully.

"You didn't have any conflicts before, did you? Why would he target you? "The captain wants to figure this out.

Mr. Ferrari pointed to the opposing left volley on the field, "I played a regular season game with him before, we haven't played at the same time, I can't even remember his face when I take off my shirt and protective gear." It could have been that he was jealous that I was selected to the best team of the Parker Ten, and that Joe Montana mentioned my name on several shows. ”

John patted his teammate's trunk-like stiff and thick arms, "Then let's cooperate well this time and give them a lesson that they will never forget in their lives." ”

Not making it to the Rose Bowl this year made him feel like he was missing something, and he hadn't played a serious game since January, just in time to end his college experience with the USC fiasco.

"I'll go straight to their end zone and let them know what a macho is." With the captain's promise, Bill's morale has increased even more, and he can't wait to see the B face that the left tackler is carrying.

The Red and White team's defensive team was very good, allowing the Trojans' first three blocks to not advance ten yards in their own half, and after executing the punt tactic, the two sides restarted the offensive line at 22 yards from the red and white half.

As he ran past the captain, John gave a high-five to his teammate who had been provoked by the enemy. If nothing else, the close end will be his main target for passing in the next attack.

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket and ask for a monthly pass.
