Congratulations on the entirely accurate score prediction. You almost got the Big 12 game too.

The computers are a travesty. The problem is they can't see that we scored 45 points in an absolute downpour against our hated rivals. The computers just see a victory (no scores allowed). So dumb. Roll the Tide!!

Post Game quotes from Bobby Bowden:

Head Coach Bobby Bowden:

(Opening statement)

“That game surprised me because I didn’t think they would beat us like that here.

The last time we had a beating like that was last year against them. I don’t think

anybody else has beaten us like that. They beat us good last year and they did the

same thing today, on our field, that surprised me, I thought we’d make it closer. I

don’t know what part the weather played, it wasn’t to anybody’s advantage, wasn’t

to their advantage, wasn’t to our advantage. I don’t know what that meant, I didn’t

like it and I don’t think Urban (Meyer) probably liked it either. But that was just a

real good whipping. If you asked me what happened, I don’t have to say we fumbled

or I don’t have to say we threw an interception, I don’t have to say we did…I was a

good tail whipping; just like last year.”

Bobby...you're right, it was a real good whipping. Your team took it like the little bitches they are!

all right, finally back in the game that has been owned by the florida gators since its creation. the gators make their 9th appearance and bama their 6th and again they are both one and two. it is a sore subject for the tide to mention how they havent dominated all aspects of SEC/all football and quickly invokes the 12 championship routine of one for every month. impressive but .... not in todays what have you done lately culture.

word from alabama (a gator in alabama) was that there was a consensus that the gators are going to win but that was before the shutout blowout of hated auburn.

as a gator im disappointed that so many faithful picked a close game versus FSU. glad to see you had a beat-down predicted Mr. report, just like me. my 20.5 point spread bet from october was as correct as i knew it would be. it was frustrating to read though that the gainesville sun beat writer picked a 31-28 gator victory (R. Andreu) over a team that relies on the jump ball pass. talk about hedging your bets!! i want to know how the man who can reach all of gainesville with his opinions and gives insight to football can a call a score as terrible as that. first of all it would mean FSU could score 4 touchdowns and it forgets that the MVP of the Noles is the FG kicker and one of the best in the country. combine that with the stingy and young gator D and you almost have to give the noles a few three pointers if you think they would score at all. not impressed with jimbo fisher yet. maybe bowden is in his way. i hope there are no coaching moves there for a while.

maybe i have seen more Noles this year than in the past 10, but they are not good as we all know. funny too to look back on the season and think the the Gators lost to perhaps the best team they played this year. if we beat bama i think we are in but what is impressive about our resume except for the way we have manhandled teams lately? thats a stat the computers dont look at which explains how in the 7 comp rankings we are 6th and 7th in 4 of them. no way there are 5 better teams, maybe not even one..

BCS is B.S. i am even in favor of dropping one non conference game a year (citadel) and playing an SEC semi-final game at the home of the #1 team. UF v. 3rd best SEC team in swamp and bama v. 4th best SEC team in Tusk town (is that the reason they choose elephants). winners meet in Atl. like normal. it is a rematch but better team should win and its a lot easier to leave out a 5th best school than a potential #1. if all conferences did this it would save the stupid bowl system and solve some major problems. rose bowl is the biggest problem. we may never face So. Cal. (sigh).
I think texas is the better defense and therefore better team in the BIG 12...
its always fun to beat the noles. Roll the tide.
