Interesting how the #6 ranked team in America draws barely half their stadium's capacity- on a saturday, no less- and against defending champions, no less.
Thats some Gator pride for you
Look, I know my Tigers are out of the top 10 and on the verge of being swept for the second straight series, but at least we're not cutting two4one deals with the local community college's students and faculty

What's Baseball? When you learn most of the SEC has this same question, you want be so aggravated in the anal area.

Losing ground? I guess that is why they are broadcating regular season games on ESPN now?

Don't lump us with Vol fans. Alabama is top ten in attendance every year.

Baseball probably has a ceiling at the collegiate level, but I would like to see it emphasized more. At least with the ESPN contract the SEC has, we can see baseball games from time to time.

Which ceiling is higher, womens hoops or baseball? I think that if ESPN shoved baseball down everyones throat like they do for WCBB, baseball could flourish.

The problem is, only the SEC takes it serious enough (along with some of the Pac Ten and Big 12).

Then why are you bragging it, if you don't care? That's like telling everyone you have a 12 inch penis, but you're a monk.

ESPN also broadcasts SEC softball. Your point?

Florida fans have one love: Football.

Everything else is secondary.

But there is a small, devoted following in Gainesville. It'll grow as the team improves over the years with the good coaching staff that they have.

Reason being, even their fans don't want to watch the cheaters.

I think its safe to say every SEC school loves and supports their football team over their baseball team and would take a win over a school in football if it means losses in baseball. But the SEC, and many schools below the Mason Dixon line, love their baseball teams.

You can also throw the state of CA and AZ in there.
