Sour, Zook has to learn these kids play for pride so they NEVER QUIT, whereas the NFL'ers play for a big check and QUIT when they are behind. He would have popped out a lot of the nails in his coffin had he won that game like he should have, this Miamiesque performance hurt his job stability somewhat. bono, Bua's dirty tactics "possibly" lost that game for them, not the refs.
Soviet, you guys look really good. It scares the shit out of me how young you are...I need to look at how everyone else did, but I am not ready to put you guys in the top 25 yet...You looked great though the past two weeks..
Dallas, Every season there are teams that don't belong in the Top 25. But we beat undefeated #6 LSU at home and a one loss #11 Arkansas team at home. I think that shows we are worthy of the #25 spot atleast. If we beat a highly ranked UGA team in 2 weeks we certainly deserve atleast a #15 ranking.
I can't stand UF and wish that they would lose every remaining game of the season. However, putting that aside, UF should be in the top 25 around #23. It does not matter that we didn't show up to play against them. UF out scored and out played us. I will be pulling for UF against GA in hopes that we can take care of business and make it to Atlanta and face UF to avenge that loss.
I agree they should not have called that, but Bua needs to settle down after bad calls. Can you see him being that undisciplined under Saban.
Look who's back, back AGAIN...Gators are back, back again, look who's back, look who's back... Saban, That was meant tongue in cheek. :dis: We almost blew that game yesterday ala Miami. We are far removed from playing at or near our potential. Horrible coaching does that to you. I am not a fairweather fan, I have been down on our coaching staff, not the players. I have every right to be critical of the coaches, I help pay their salary. We have a young talented team that is poorly coached, when it is properly coached by another staff it will be back to dominating. UF's players deserve a Top 25 ranking, the coaches however do not. It is UF's raw talent that has gotten them where they are under Zook, not Zook's horrible coaching. I know LSU's players had a "down game" and Saban and staff had a major brainfart week before last against UF, but it's not as if UF was playing at their full potential in that game either. I will gladly take a rematch in Atlanta (Wishful thinking) because I am sure LSU would be playing that much better at seasons end, as would UF and Leak. Oh yeah, we're all fairweather fans to an extent, none of us are perfect. I know the LSU players looked up into the stands week before last and were glad to see all the LSU fans hadn't vacated their seats in droves and hence, turned their backs on them. :dis:
Every time the flag was thrown against Arkansas yesterday for roughing the passer, I had flashbacks of the Florida Linebacker who took three steps, after the ball was thrown, and went helment to helment with Herb Tyler a few years ago. Tyler was standing watching th flight of the ball when the linbacker tried to take his head off. The official was standing watching the entire episode but no flag was thrown. None of the infractions yesterday were vicious yet Arkansas was was penalized. The last one was a killer and probably save Florida's day.
roy, No doubt it saved us, we couldn't stop Arkansas to save our lives. We, or Zook I shoud say, should have lost that game.
