Let me run this one by you Prof. Let's say UF gets that 2 point conversion. I think that would of been one of the classic over times of college football. Both defenses were gassed. UF couldn't stop the run and Grossman and the offense finally got the offense going in the 4th. I believe Spurrier figured out what Chavis was doing on the last 2 drives. I think that would of been some type of 78-76 type of offensive classic if that goes to overtime.
Totally agree. That game would've gone on forever. I don't know if Chavis would've adjusted or not -- he was having a game like Stephens. Hell if Chavis had been like that all the time he'd be an all time great DC.
Even as it stands, that was one of the greatest CFB games ever played. Two outstanding teams battling it out. It was total war (the way football ought to be). I honestly think it's a classic game that should be rated one of the best.
And rivalry aside, it really is too bad that someone had to lose that game. UT and UF played a lot of games like that but this one was probably the best all around football game we ever played against each other.

Yeah if that game goes to overtime, it comes down to which team had a better strength and conditioning program imo.
