This was an exciting game but Florida was down. I also knew this would be the biggest win of the year since you could tell there wasn't much talent out there. We played about 4 or 5 hands that came up aces but this team was really a 6-7 win team at best.

Also, it was early 4th qtr if I recall. A couple years before we had Arkie down 31-10 to start the 4th and lost. TOday, yea we take out the starters. Back then we couldn't ever believe we had a big enough lead. Shula took a lot of heat but Florida had moved the ball and as Arkie proved no lead was insurmountable against us. What if he takes the starters out and Florida scores 2 td's in the next 5 minutes. It's 31-17 with 6 minutes to play and our Offense has mailed it in. We had to get one more. I would have done the same that day.

Maybe not on offense but that defense had some incredibly talented guys on it. Heck, 3 of them are still starting in the NFL when healthy.
