I don't really have a bad thing to say about the team/coaches/season. I think they exceeded most people's preseason realistic expecitations given the huge defensive turnover/cluster that happened in the off season.
That being said, the UF loss is what I'm hung up on. It was a baffling embarrassing and inexcusable loss to an inferior opponent. That game derailed our season and put our destiny in another teams hands. It was one of the most poorly played and poorly coached games I've ever watched. Because we decided to not show up to play Florida (how is that even an option given the intensity of that rivalry) we are stuck with the ole "woulda coulda shoulda" and "next year, man, next year is gonna be different" but that is what we say every year.

For the life of me I can't understand how we do not come out fired up to play Florida that just baffles me

I understand what you are saying, but I have to disagree. Yes, it was a bad loss. Yes, we should have beaten them. However, fo me, the South Carolina loss was worse on several levels. The main level is that had it not been for a bad holding call negating Gurley's TD run we would have won the game and we would be playing for the SECCG. The Florida game was a bad loss. We came out flat and they jumped on us and we got beat. Shouldn't have happened. We SHOULD be undefeated. but, Missouri lost to Indiana, and Alabama lost to Ole Miss and UCLA lost to Stanford. Sometimes losses like that
happen to everybody. Georgia fans tend to fixate on those losses and make it seem as if Georgia is the only team that this happens to. It happens to everybody.
