Yeah this week seems a little off. Between yall wanting to fire Boom and us bitching about the Gurley situation, everybody seems distracted.



I won't be upset with an upset win over UG but a loss just may get rid of Boom immediately so it's really a win-win for us.

Yeah, I honestly think if Florida can manage to not frick up on offense, then they have a chance to make it a game. If they don't turn the ball over I think it can look alot like the Florida-LSU game looked a couple of weeks ago. I can see Florida coming out pissed from hearing how they were going to get shite on for 2 weeks. But hey, Muschamp is the best at screwing shite up for us. So it'll probably be something like 34-24, if not worse than that.

How do Florida fans plan their weekend? Obviously Georgia fans start showing up in the coastal islands of Georgia on Tuesday and Wednesday and party through the weekend. Do Florida fans just drive up day of? I've always been kinda curious.


It depends. Most students go up Friday so they can be in the Landing Friday night. I've driven up on both a Friday and Saturday and it seems Friday is the busier travel day.

CBS has to show everybody at some point. Might as well show the #1 team when they have to show UK

CBS has a contract with both schools that is set years and years in advance. It will always be on CBS at 3:30 and there's nothing you can do about it.


Except for that time it wasn't.

Florida may beat UGA, but it will be because the players are playing for Treon Harris, not because all of a sudden Muschamp solved the riddle on how to be a semi-competant head coach of one of the best programs in the nation

Not really. They simply pick games that the public cares about.

Crap! First you dominate the series for 13 or so years, now when we start to win Florida STILL gets a win-win! I HATE that!

Gator fans who think like that are the worst. As a Gator myself, I don't care how bad the team is, how likely it is that our coach will be fired, or anything else, I want to beat Georgia. Bad. I hate UGA, and living in Atlanta I am in enemy territory. And I know Georgia fans have the same line of thinking when it comes to Florida. So anybody who claims to be a Gator fan that turns around and admittedly roots against their team because of a coach needs to turn in their fan card and go root for FSU or Alabama. If Florida loses to Georgia, it will be 4 years in a row of the same crap. There is no win in that, nor is there any moral victories.

12 years ago.

ESPN did some finagling and paid CBS a bunch of money to show it at 7:45. UGA, UF, and the City of Jacksonville all agreed afterwards that would not happen again.
