Well clearly that was proven to be lie as the Gators spanked that butt last night. We are number one and thats why they did'nt want us there in the first place we clearly showed them that (Ohio Stank) had'nt played anybody all season.

Being a Gator Fan from Baltimore I ran into all kinds of walls here and all you heard was Buckeyes total domination style of football. I preached to silent ears about the SEC and the Gators. Being the only person in Cleveland with a gator jersey I bought in 1997 with # 97 on it I showed up at work with this and a polo and t-shirt all stating Gators. When game time hit I was alla tingle with anticipation. After the 1st touchdown by the Gators I could see it in the palyers eyes the intensity while with the Buckeyes it was confidence. Well we know the outcome and today there are a lot of silent fans who say how can you say that was a good game. I know that Coach Meyers is humble about his win and am proud of his comments a true test of character is not just what you say before and during a game but also what you say after a game. So go Gators and keep making me look good. Wayne McDaniel After being transferred to Cleveland, Ohio all I hear about is Buckeyes.

My big difference is strength of schedule and quality opponents. I lived and worked in the Mid-west and Big Ten football is lame. The Gators won the most intense conference in the country and worked and proved themselves on the field. If they go to Glendale with confidence that they have earned the right by beating the best teams in the country, the statistics are unimportant. I doubt OSU would be #1 if they had played the great teams the Gators have vanquished. Great analysis, thanks for breaking it down like this.

With the 44-34 Louisville upset over West Virginia the Gators chances of moving to third in the BCS Poll next week are right on. The Gators need to win the rest of their games to insure a place in the BCS National Championship game. Ohio State and Michigan play each other in their final game. If the standings remain the same throughout the season then Gators have to end up number two. Its now time to CHEER for all the teams we beat to win their remaining games. It will also help if the teams we still have to play WIN (except when we play them). I never thought I would hear myself say it <b>"GO NOLES"!</b> until November 25th that is.

That was the most rediculous call I've ever seen. I do believe that we will still somehow make the National Championship. If you look at the teams ahead of us in the BCS, its really easy to see the pieces falling right for us to get to the second spot. Arkansas will lose to LSU and Tennessee, so that will give us our shot at Auburn, this time without the home cookin. Urban Meyer is a helluva coach, I think we will surely win a few rings with him, although I would like to see Tebow on the field a little more. GO GATORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not enough snaps for Tebow and pulling him out in the redzone. A typical leak-down (the 50/50 chance that Leak will meltdown and make a foolish mistake(s)) Having a pocket passer run the option. Foolish hold/take-down in the end zone resulting in a safety when the ball could have bene thrown away. Damn Punter. No Tebow power runs up the Tiger's weak middle to set up some misdirection and passing. So sad to simply hand the game to them.
