I thought it was a bad call and really didn't understand it. Had a big impact on the game too. I'm one that would prefer the refs only make the obvious calls. Otherwise I thought the calls pretty much went both ways, but that one call really stained the game. You guys are in the Big Dance though and that's really all that matters at this point.

I had a hard time following it and I read The Hobbit, all the LOTR books, The Silmarillion and the Unfinished Tales. Maybe knowing too much created the issue since Jackson took so many liberties with the original story. Regardless my 9 year old son really liked it. He was not caught up in the plot so much as the action and the screenplay and the effects.

If most of those highly rated players were actually still on the team then I might agree with Cobb. And I'd be much more confident in the Gators' chances. But the attrition in the Florida program has been at epic proportions, which is evident on the field. Dooley is in his 3rd year. He's supposed to be turning the corner with your program. Muschamp will be in the same position next year, which will be his 3rd year, and I expect us to be turning the corner at that point.
It is starting to feel like a Tennessee-Florida game again. The heat is as high as I can remember in a long time. That's a good thing. Hopefully next season it will be a clash of top 10 teams.

Vol fan confidence against UF is nothing new, even at the level I'm seeing it this year. I've seen that many times in the past, sometimes warranted and sometimes not. The big difference to me is that my Gators just aren't very good. In 2010 Gator fans were coming off the Tebow years and had a false sense of security related to that, me included. We thought we were much better than we were and we were confident we'd win. Now it is obvious to a lot of Gator fans that we aren't very good and it makes us nervous, whether it is admitted or not. Winning at Texas A&M gave the sunshine pumpers a shot in the arm, but it remains to be seen how good A&M is. Just as it remains to be seen how good Florida is, and Tennessee for that matter. When UF plays LSU and Tennessee plays Bama we'll both have a much better idea of how good we really are and how we stack up against the best. This is a very important game, don't get me wrong. But those games will be the litmus tests of how much we have improved. And I think both teams have improved.
Crazy Eddie? Really? The name says it all. He's funny, but he really is crazy. He is not representative of Gator fans, although I appreciate his optimism.
Cordarelle is amazing. Looks like a taller Percy Harvin and I'm not just playing nice. That kid is electric. Enjoy the one season you'll have him, because that guy is going to be a high first round NFL pick in a few months. He keeps the safety out of the box which helps your running game. If Florida can't get a pass rush with the front four then we're doomed. And I haven't see Florida get pressure with just the front four since 2009, even against teams like Bowling Green.
Looking forward to another great game with the Vols.
