Personally I'm glad we're taking on UGA and not UF this Sat. The Gators have gotten better as the season progressed and will give anyone fits right now.
And in other news, Jesse Palmer has entered drug rehab.Jesse was just on SportsCenter. He said Florida was the best team in the country... PERIOD. His reasoning was that UF beat Texas A&M, who beat Alabama. They beat LSU and their only loss was to UGA. In that game, the offense has their "E" effort and turned the ball over numerous times. Couldn't we play this game too? Thoughts?
Thanks for that JCA but I'm pretty sure we would get hammered by Bama right now. Bama is hands down the most complete and competitive team in college football right now. I'm REALLY looking forward to this Saturday's SECCG against UGA. You gotta know that Gators everywhere will be living vicariously through the Crimson Tide.Personally I'm glad we're taking on UGA and not UF this Sat.

Jesse Palmer's hair gel has been seeping into his brain for years. Take any and all commentary by him with a grain of salt. He can barely speak intelligibly half the time.
Wow, a former Florida Player thinks Florida is the best team in the nation!! I'm so surprised!!
Ok, sarcasm is done.
Florida is good, yes, but they did loose a game. Their SOS is also very good. But, this year we have the BCS who says #1 plays #2. The BCS puts together polls, computers, etc, and the BCS says #1 is Notre Dame and #2 is 'Bama.
Florida is not even in the discussion.
So, who really cares what Jesse Palmer thinks?
Yeah, I like word games also. Jesse Palmer probably has connections to Kevin Bacon too...Florida lost to Georgia, who was blown out by South Carolina, who was dismantled by LSU, who lost to.... Alabama.
You're alright in my book, Bazza. Course, round here, that ain't saying a whole lot.And thanks for all who appreciate us here. We are not perfect by a long shot but are working on getting better.
Thanks again and roll tide!
Georgia gradDoes Mark Schlabah dislike Bama?! It's really beginning to seem like it.
Ha! Thanks Riz - I enjoy this forum because of the football savvy discussions so give yourself (yourselves) a pat on the back....this is a great community and I feel fortunate to have found it.You're alright in my book, Bazza. Course, round here, that ain't saying a whole lot.
that is very true. you can pick apart any team pretty much this year and there is no dominant team, but for jesse to say florida is #1 shows he is just being a homer. florida has a nice resume, but they got to face an a&m team early in the year before they played their first game and you see a lot of improvement for most teams from game 1 to game 2. If a&m had a game before they played florida that is a loss on their schedule. the night a&m beat alabama they would have beaten most teams in the country with how they played imo. uf beat usce and lsu and those are impressive wins, but then they come into jacksonville and they lose. the reason uf's offense was that bad had a lot to do with our defense and how we played them. if you look at the turnovers they had one which was a giveaway, the rest were taken from them. that is just great defensive plays. if uf had taken care of their business in jacksonville they would be in the dome, but they didn't and uga did. time for florida to stop whining and start getting ready for the sugar bowl.I think the truth (according to Buzzard :biggrin is that there's no real clear cut dominant or "best" team this season. Whether you're talking about Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Oregon, Notre Dame, Kstate etc. The common fan can watch several games of each of these teams throughout the regular season and begin picking out flaws.
they would be more deserving if they had beaten uga head to head, but they didn't. they are very fortunate james franklin can't hit wide open receivers and the ragin cajun's got a punt block so they could be them. that offense is challenged, but that defense is great. no team with what was at one time a 120th ranked offense needs to be talking about being the #1 team in the country. also their preseason ranking and eye test mean nothing because they couldn't beat uga.Honestly I feel bad for Florida not getting a shot they have had a great year. To me they are way more deserving of being in the SEC champ game than Georgia.
They are suffering from a lower preseason ranking and the eye test but their results speak for themselves.
Me too. I think he thinks they are about to return to Meyer/Tebow era and got excited. Kinda confusing possible future with present. I want to see what he says once we soundly dismantle UGA. RTRI wonder what his logic will be if Alabama beats Georgia (which I expect to happen as most of us here do) the team that beat his beloved Gators?
I totally agree with this. Even though both teams have the same won-loss record - they are miles apart in substance this seasonMy brother the Gator fan, who sees things in his analysis that I miss said Alabama would roll this year's Gator team fwiw.
