Then Will better fix that shite - he's has a ton of talent on that team. He will continue to bring in more NFL caliber talent. He's gotta find a way to keep them focused on the task at hand, and worry about their NFL careers AFTER they're done with their college career.

The commentators were a UF hater's best friend. It was tough to watch and even tougher to listen to.



Really? I didnt get to hear very much of them talking to be honest, I just caught that particular comment. I was playing Black Ops 2 on my other big screen next to it with my headset on and watching yalls game out of the corner of my eye. Same thing I did all day New Years Day.

It really is the perfect set up

42" LED with Black ops going sitting next to an old 57" HD Projection that still has a fantastic picture playing football. That's up in my office. The 53" LED is in the living room but the only station is seems to pick up is the fricking Disney Channel.

UF players doing the discount double check while down two scores is funny.

It was bad for a UF fan and lovely for the haters. REally bad. The post game show was worse. ESPN has some hate built up from the Tim years it seems.

Oh and...

Florida looked like they were more interested in trash talking and making big hits than they were playing good football and winning the game. Plus 1000

Discipline, Execution, Skill, and Motivation win football games. Florida had one of these last night.

They wanted to be there to jaw at Louisville and make obscene gestures, but play, maybe not....

I agree with the OP. They didn't have much energy and were out hustled, out played and out coached. Embarrassing sums it up pretty good. Gator fans were out yelled, out numbered. Our band was better, though. Yeah! Silver lining.

FYI - Those lily white, chubby chicks (Majorette's???) in front of the band were not better than UL's chicks. With all of UF's stellar facilities, y'all don't have a few tanning beds & stair-masters for those poor girls?

I find it funny folks trying to flex about a tv size that more than likely does not exist in led.

Lots of truth in this thread. Unfortunately, if I were calling (analyst) the game, I would have probably been put off by the Florida players too. Acting like idiots when you are gettting your arse handed to you is no bueno. Thought Muschamp had this under control after it was created by Meyer. We never used to be like this. Florida fans won't support it either, and we tend to be the fickle type.

In all, still a good season, just hate to see it end on such a sour note.

The thing is we were a 2 pt conversion and onside away from making it intersting (no chance in hell we pull it off and win but at least make it a game) and all the announcers are talking about is "The greatest vegas odds upset in bowl histroy!" We lost by 10 pts.. did we get 'stomped'? yes (they could move the ball all day and we couldn't). Did we get blown out... I wouldn't call it that.

Lol, SEC fans are painful. Louisville treated Florida like some rented concubine.

Vintage Bama '08? Utah pushed your shite in like an 800 lb Gorilla with a chainsaw for a penis. You clowns act like that game was a fluke. They beat your brains in and physically dominated you.

eta: yes i am a state fan. We aren't talking about us right now.


It's called being too loose. I think Florida is going to be scary good next season.

You could say that we fell off the...Driskel cliff.

They should be pretty good along both lines which will make them competitive with anyone. Their lack of playmaking ability at the skill positions, however, is still staggeringly lacking. I also don't know if I trust Driskel. On top of that, their secondary was exposed last night, and it loses its best player in Elam.
