If you come to Gainesville with this attitude, you will probably end up with a fat lip at a minimum. Fair warning.

Due to our FG kicker out for the game, and the fact that we couldn't've kicked a fieldgoal from the 3 ydln if we wanted to, odds favored LSU in OT. However, something tells me that UF would've pulled it out in OT. Don't ask me why.

Then you don't visit Miami and FSU fan sites very often, do you? :lol:

Les wouldn't have made it back to BR alive had he not kicked it on 4th down and it failed.

Not so sure Aubie doesn't get you at home, but I agree otherwise.

I would've kicked it.
I thought with our kicker out we wouldn't have been able to count on the FG.
I believe he's out 4-6 weeks to to a gym injury, or am I wrong about that?

Sure, UF has a "youngbuck" at QB. Anyone on here or on our sites that say/said UF isn't/shouldn't have severe growing pains when he left is delusional.
We are replacing what many arguably consider the best player to ever play the game (or at least the last 25 years), with a Junior, yes, but one with little or no true gametime experience.
So you can "GTFO" all you want, but we're struggling because we lost Tebow. Just as we did when we lost Dannyboy after '96.
Not to mention many NFL'ers from our excellent defense we had last year.
So this is an absolute rebuilding year. Don't expect this trend to continue out of Florida. We may not compete for anything this year, but players grow up, and we will compete in the very near future for the NC. I'm thinking as soon as '12.

I totally agree. I KNEW it was a fake. I was like, NO WAY he kicks it. It's GOT to be a fake.
Another call I disagree with was I would've taken a safety and kicked the ball to LSU right before the half. Sure, they get two points, but we take a lead into halftime with us getting the ball to start the 2nd half.
Turns out, if they would have done that, UF wins this game. (Provided LSU doesn't score with under a minute to go in the 1st half.)

re: Who goes to SEC CG this year ?
Posted by SwampySteve on 10/11/10 at 4:28 pm
Honestly, I see us getting there. This is the total reverse from when the East was superior to the west back in the day.
I sure hope that Saban gets the itch and leaves or else, let's face it, he could equal the Bear there. I'm dead serious. If he stays there to end his career, I could see that happening.

re: If Miles coached BAMA...
Posted by SwampySteve on 10/11/10 at 4:26 pm
I agree Bama would've won, but not for the reasons you might think.
He would have sacrificed virgins, chickens and put a hex on Spurrier and landed him in the hospital. That would've done it.
And I guess he probably would have had a Garcia doll made and had someone poking pins into it. :lol:
Damn lucky bastard!

I'm not so sure you can jump to the conclusion that Les is better than Urban just because he won the 6th meeting between the two.
Urban has more wins AND more championships.
What is hurting Florida the most right now (and is rarely mentioned) is that the head coach of the opposing team in the next home game for Florida isn't wearing Orange and Blue. It's IMO one of the reasons we're not 3 for 4 in NC's over the last 4 years.

yeah, Miss State is gonna be a good one, unfortunately.
Urban's record vs. the West is really not very impressive. Now, the East is something stellar. Only lost 2 games. (USC and UGA)

What's funny is that UF still controls its own destiny in a WEAK SEC East.
I see us taking care of business up until USC(e). Schedule is Miss State, Vandy and UGA. We "should" win those.
History doesn't bode well for USC(e). They've never won in the Swamp and only beaten the Gators once in about 80 years. But this looks to be a huge game.
I was at the game on Saturday and was telling my friends that we DO NOT deserve this one if we win it. Without LSU's special teams and offensive blunders, it wouldn't have been remotely close.
Our offense is just BAD, end of story. If we get to Atlanta, it'll be more because we're the last one left standing and less because of our talent and gameplay.

Don't know if you have Sonny's BBQ in Louisiana, but it's been sliding here in SOFLA for years. I rarely go down here. But when I get to gainesville, it's one of the first places I go. It originated there, and the one on Archer is the best Sonny's out there. I think it was the second store.
Also, Newberry BBQ (in Newberry, like 15 miles west of Gainesville) is good. They used to serve it in the stadium.
As far as in-stadium fare, you MUST, MUST, MUST get the lemonade. Not the one they sell in the stands, though. Go to the lemonade stand and ask for one with extra sugar. I think it's 5 bucks, but it's the best lemonade on earth. And I don't even like lemonade that much.

I liked to get a double meat, double cheese burger with everything and a large fry for breakfast.
