You've owned us I admit that but you ain't winning this year and you know it. You won't put your money where your mouth is. If your confident you'll agree to the ban bet but you're scared.

WHO in the HELL did y'all beat last year????? Nobody! A down UGA and USC and Mizzou team that were softas marshmellows, then Vandy & UK ...you know damn well (or maybe you dumbasses dont know)that you didnt beat a team with a pulse.

So all of a sudden you are the 1960s Green Bay Packers?? I think y'all drinking too much of uncle Charlies XXX moonshine. Stop drinking and chasing your first cousin around the single wide trying to get those panties off.

You will meet reality soon enough and air escaping Neyland could fill up 2,000 hot air balloons...cause guess what? All the damn hype has done nothing but fire up a bunch of angry reptiles. Jalen Tabor will wave one finger as he crosses the goal line after taking the cheese away from Dobbsy. Antonio Callaway will be waving too after a 60+ yd catch and run to the house. Neyland will be half empty by early 4th qt.

Gators Maintain Title Claim Despite Missing Sec Trophy


September 3, 1985|By Sharon Robb, Staff Writer
GAINESVILLE — The 1984 Southeastern Conference football trophy in a glass case outside the University of Florida football offices disappeared over the holiday weekend.

``It`s somewhere around here, collecting cobwebs,`` said Florida assistant athletic director Norm Carlson. ``I went up to Florida coach) Galen Hall and asked him if he knew where it was and he said, `No, do you?` ``

Carlson said the consensus around the athletic offices Monday was the cleaning crew locked it away someplace safe because of the three-day holiday weekend.

``Maybe the SEC rep came to get it when no one was here,`` joked a Gator official.

Even though the Gators were stripped of their first SEC title last year after being placed on NCAA probation for recruiting violations, the trophy remained in their possession -- until this weekend.

SEC Commissioner Boyd McWhorter said from Birmingham, Ala., unless he hears otherwise, the conference won`t be asking for it back.

``The trophy to me, as I`ve said all along, is symbolic,`` McWhorter said. ``The official records show we have no conference champion for 1984, that the title was vacated. Any trophy to the contrary, notwithstanding, doesn`t mean anything.``

But to the Gators it means everything. ``SEC Champs,`` is posted on T-shirts, cups, mugs, license plate frames and posters in the campus bookstore and around town. The trophy is pictured on the cover of the Gators` 1985 media guide. In the Gator Bait 1985 Football Yearbook, several references are made to the ``1984 SEC title,`` the Gators` ``first-ever league championship`` and ``last year`s title-winning season.``

``According to the strict tenets of journalistic accuracy, we probably should have gone back and stripped those references from the copy,`` said Gator Bait Publisher David Stirt. ``But we didn`t. And with good reason.

Bad losers and bad winners.

That is a Gator distinction as is being the sole member in a club of SEC programs to be stripped of an SEC title.

"Teez" will probably be suspended because he's a tool. Gator fans are riled up because you know you're getting beat. And angry reptiles? Our guys will be more angry because you figs have been running your mouth all off season.

Funny, there is still a National Championship trophy from 1984 in the trophy case.

More trivial trivia, who is the first SEC champion to lose to another SEC team in a bowl game at the end of the season. You guessed it, the 1969 Vo12s.

What is not funny is that you think that cheating is perfectly fine.

2 losses on that UF UGA A&M BAMA stretch (most likely the bookends) and probably one more they don't expect.
