Yeah, but they went into the game as the underdog. Had they been 10 pt favorites and then choked in the 4th I would agree. They were beaten by a better team.

Rollie, you are way wrong on this one.

Bama is not nearly as talented as Fla, overachieved all year, won some close games where they held on for dear life(UGA, Ky, UM) after playing their usual show up early and lay the wood for huge early leads. Went to OT with a mediocre LSU team that didn't even play a super-crisp game,etc..

That they were unbeaten as young, and mostly returning mediocrity-era players, is the story.

Sure, Bama wilted a tad down the stretch, but that is what Fla does to everyone, sooner or later they have you tired, and keep rotating in and out all those WRs and TEs, Tebow's scampers and will-power takes over, they hit a back-breaker or two.

How Florida ever lost a game is equally surprising, they sleptwalked that morning vs Ole Miss, and got bit down the stretch, I watched it.

Once UF beats OU 47-34, folks will be wondering how is it they ever lost a game.
