If this happens, I’ll shite in a red solo cup and make you eat it.

Of course it was a money grab. And if all things remained constant, I would have preferred it go home/home. But the chorus of retards that want it moved from Jax would only get worse. ESPECIALLY if we went 2-0 in Athens and Gainesville.

The Hugo Bowl.

I’m glad it’s going ATL/Tampa. The WLOCP needs to stay in Jacksonville. If that requires two years in those locales instead of home and home, so be it.

I’ve been a member here since the Great Migration and this is the first time I’ve had to look up the meaning of a word. Bravo sir.
Florida football shows remarkable consistency to turn that much talent, money, and sunshine into an annual rebuilding project.

Beck is likely the only individual that will throw the last interception of the college football season and the first interception of the NFL season.

And for all our sakes, you better hope I’m right.
quote:
Mike Bobo holds a career collegiate head coaching record of 28-38 across 6 seasons. He spent five years as the head coach at Colorado State (28-35) and served as the interim head coach at South Carolina for 3 games (0-3).” That quote is from the Google machine. But, lucky for him, he’s buddies with Kirbs.
A good coordinator doesn’t always make a good head coach. Just look at Muschamp.
If Mike sucks as bad as you think he does, please explain to me why a sitting NFL Offensive Coordinator would allow his son to commit to play quarterback for said sucky offensive coordinator. I’ll await your detailed answer with bated breath.
re: Why Erk Russell never had the job
Posted by TLA on 7/6/26 at 10:19 am to Violent Hip Swivel
Erk was absolutely offered the job. He was a friend of the family. Actually him and my dad won the member-guest tennis tournament on Amelia Island. My family’s condo was a couple floors below Vince and Barbara’s. Erk said he “couldn’t make a four year commitment to Georgia, Georgia Southern, or anybody else.
I’ve been to probably all of Georgia’s biggest games since about 1990 or so. I’ve seen some great wins and soul crushing losses. 2nd and 26 hurt but you could tell Kirby was building something and we would be back. The most painful loss is the 2012 SEC Championship game against Alabama. We’d blocked a kick that we returned for a touchdown but you could tell the defense was gassed in the 4th and we couldn’t anything to stop Bama’s offense. And then for Murray’s pass to get tipped and caught as time expired just made it feel like we would forever be the bridesmaid and never the bride. We would have skullfricked ND had we won that game.

All of my childhood heroes are dying. And I don't feel so good myself.
Appreciate the subtle nod to Lewis. You’re a great American.
I knew exactly what you meant. But I wanted to see how far you would stoop to avoid playing somebody just because it’s a little harder. But there’s also something to be said in recruiting for someone wanting to play for a culture that will play anybody, anywhere. frick it. let’s play FSU in the parking lot and kick their arse.
quote:
Personally I couldn't hate this anymore if I tried. I was glad that we "canceled" originally, because in the days of a 9 game SEC schedule, plus our auto-P4 game against tech, plus an SECCG (for now anyways before it goes extinct), plus multiple games against top 10 teams in a playoff....it makes ZERO logical sense to make your schedule even harder on yourself by choice.
By this train of thought, why don’t we just get out of the SEC altogether?
quote:
Munson is revered because of calling numerous pivotal moments in UGA lore, but otherwise, he was no better than Scott Howard. I want to hear formations, down and distance, time, etc, and neither did any of that.
Munson literally starts the Belue to Scott call with, “Florida in a stand up five, they may or may not blitz, they don’t. Buck back, third down on the eight, in trouble, got a block behind him, gonna throw on the run, complete to the 25, to the 30, Lindsay Scott! 35-40!” Etc.
The full call is not always played. I think you’re misremembering how Larry set the stage.
And God knows how many times he would count the clock down. To say he didn’t give the time is factually inaccurate.

I’d call you a functioning retard but that would actually be an improvement.
Gladly. Per your linked article, “For decades, Florida’s growth recipe was simple. It combined low taxes, including no personal income tax, with comparatively affordable housing and warm weather.” At no point does YOUR OWN LINKED ARTICLE reference air conditioning as a reason for population boom.
However, I did take it upon myself to do a little research on air conditioning in Florida. I used Google and per your own words “if you have a problem with Google, take it up with them.”
A quick Google search states, “Air conditioning became common in Florida homes during the 1950’s and 1960’s following the post World War II boom in affordable window units, with central air becoming widespread in the 1970’s”
As I stated in an earlier post, Florida was the most populous SEC state by 1960. UF didn’t win their first SEC title until 1991. That’s a full THREE DECADES after Florida was the most populous state in the South and the advent of air conditioning becoming common.
So in short, you are “very, very dumb.” And 120 years of Florida football has sucked outside a window of about 18 years.

This AC excuse is by far the most retarded, beta male excuse I’ve ever read on this site and that’s saying something.
By 1960, Florida had the highest population count of any SEC state BY MORE THAN ONE MILLION PEOPLE of the next highest, which was Georgia. Additionally FSU only started playing football in the late 40’s and sucked until Bowden and Miami started in the 1920’s but was mediocre at best until Schellenberger. In 1960, Alabama had almost two million less people and two major schools winning conference championships. in 1960, Mississippi had almost three million less people than the state of Florida and two major programs with Ole Miss winning five SEC titles between 1947 to 1963.
In short, Florida has sucked for the better part of their history. This past decade has been a mere regression to the mean for that program. Go to your room.

As a Savannahian, I feel I should step in here. I can’t speak for other venues, but tickets at Historic Grayson Stadium (home of the Bananas) are $35 each and are all-you-can-eat. There’s a huge waiting list for season tickets so tickets can be hard to come by but the team actively cancels tickets found on the secondary market and have a face value resale website with no fees.
While the product is entertaining on tv, it’s nothing like being there live an in person. It’s like going to a carnival and a baseball game breaks out. There is real talent out there too. A couple former Bananas have made it to the Bigs.
EVERYTHING Jesse Cole (Bananas owner) does is FAN FIRST. From pep bands in the stands to players taking pictures and signing autographs two hours before first pitch to two hours after the last out is what has created this cult following. I go to a handful of games a year and get my fix, but my nine year old son is obsessed. Yeah it can be a little cheesy at times but it’s cheap family fun that the kids will remember for a lifetime.

Granted, there were times that Munson failed in that task. "Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott!" may be iconic in Dawg history, but if you weren't watching that game along with him, you might not have had any idea as to what was going on. Did he get tackled? Did he fall down? Did he keep going through the endzone and ran to the nearest grocery store for bread?
In no way did Munson fail. That was the beauty of his broadcast. You know he lived and died with the Dawgs just like all of us. Some of his most iconic calls didn’t mention what happened until well after. But it didn’t matter. We all knew what happened.
For instance:
“Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott!
“Watch it! Watch it! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah”
“Gonna try to kick it sixty yards…plus a foot and a half.. BUTLER KICKED A LONG ONE (voice intensifying) OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD!”
“We hand it off to Herschel. There’s a hole! 5! 10-12! He’s running over people! Oh you Herschel Walker! My godalmighty he ran right through two men! Herschel ran right over two men they had him dead away inside the nine! Herschel Walker went 16 yards! He drove right over orange shirts just driving and running with those big thighs! My God a Freshman!”
Just to name a few.

Gross. Was hoping for an earlier tip. Game probably won't actually start until 10 or so.
God, you are so old.

Early on March 3rd, or 3/3, at precisely 3:33 AM, the moon turned….blood red. That very evening Georgia beat Alabama to become a stone cold lock for the NCAA Tournament. There are no coincidences.
