    Lot's of problems with LSU's team right now. But, I gotta admit. Florida was simply ON. Everything they touched turned to gold. 9/10 times that 70 yard pass is not tipped directly into the hands of the receiver. That was the crux of the demoralization. I mean, Florida lost to Ole Miss. Just one of those unexplainable games. Florida couldn't do things wrong evne when they tried to. The Gators have not looked this good all season.:huh: They found it with us. I would say congrats, but Meyer is probably busy patting himself on his own back.

    I have a similar feeling, myself.

    My dad was a football coach for over 30 years, and there were simply nights like this for his teams from time to time. There was one game in particular that we always remember.

    He and the other coach were interviewed on radio programs the whole week before the game, they were on the local news every night. My dad prepared his team, and they went out...and laid the biggest egg ever, lost by 20 some-odd points.

    After the game, his All-American RB, who became an All-American DB @ UCLA put it this way, "No matter what we did tonight, we were always a step too late. I felt like we were playing in slow motion, and they were playing in fast forward."

    This game reminded me of that night.

    I under-estimated how tough it would be to defend our NC.

    Thus far, we've gotten every team's "A Game", and it's obvious that opponents are using things our coaches have not seen before, which has made game planning very difficult.
