Dashawn probably won't enjoy that Florida atmosphere

1 epic visit against ND

1 Bama blowout with a lame atmosphere

1 Florida struggle vs Vandy

Their defense is way, way too good to allow that many points to pretty much any team, let alone Vandy, to say otherwise. Shame, I think Muschamp is a good coach. But when players give up on the program...

I agree that Florida wasn't a real player anyhow, but if you're going to offer their struggle against Vandy as a reason he won't be impressed, it's fortunate he wasn't at the Akron, UConn, or MSU games.

the only thing is what Da'shawn thinks about the visit and how he can fit in there because he did tweet that he was "feeling like gator right now" earlier today. So if he likes the weather and can see himself fitting in there who knows it may stick in his head for his decision on thursday.

The thing about Florida that I think a lot of people not from around there don't realize is that they think they're Michigan. They think they're a college football blue blood and a public ivy. I actually knew students there who told me that the university was equal to Michigan and to be considered by the Ivy League when they tried to expand south (LOL). So I don't know why you'd rather go there if both teams are down. Sure it's warmer, but it's in a swamp.

Well, actually I have no idea how he enjoyed it.  But after 5 football seasons in Gainesville, this was my first game.  So if he saw what I saw, Florida dropped flat out. 

This was a game that should have been a 34-10 score (luckily at 34-17 on a lucky pass reflected off the foot of the DB that blocked it).  I especially liked how the crowd was yelling at the field throughout the game, worse after halftime.  Begging for Muschamp to be fired.  Defense was horrible, offense was actually not as bad as it seemed (offensive line was slightly worse than ours).  Horrible penalties on both sides of the ball.  The only bright side to this for Hand would be offering him IMMEDIATE playing time.

Maybe it was that the stadium was only about 90% full.  Maybe it was how teh crowd started leaving at the end of the 3rd quarter.  Maybe it was how the stadium was about 50% full with 10 minutes left in the game.  And for a homecoming game, the atmosphere was terrible.  Should be much more of a Michigan vs Bama battle.  I don't see how any of the recruits could have enjoyed that game. 

And for all those complaining about ticket prices at Michigan, suffer through it.  Prices may be cheaper at the advertising schools, but the commercials, the crap on the billboards and during breaks.  The players (surprisingly UF only) kept watching the commercials and had no focus at all.

But I thoroughly enjoyed the game.
