2 years 19 weeks ago	Um, well.	Alabama 49, Michigan State 7. Mississippi State 52, Michigan 14. Florida 37, Penn State 24. I mean, we played the games.  It wasn't like we didn't have a chance to win them with 60:00 on the clock.  I'd say we deserve whatever they say about us.
2 years 19 weeks ago	What else was the kid going	What else was the kid going to say? I hope that if we have a new coach, we at least hire someone with the common sense to keep around this year's Big Ten Offensive POY and build his offense around him.  I'd wonder about anyone who didn't.
2 years 23 weeks ago	Coming up from Miami!	Most likely.  Probably will fool around with not getting tickets for a while. J'ville may not be so warm that time of year.  Brrr.
2 years 26 weeks ago	Usually I hear them, too,	but last night, sometime before halftime, my fiancé yelled "John Brantley, you suck!" at the TV and then fell silent for the rest of the game. Yeah, they're not taking it well.
2 years 26 weeks ago	Florida	I think most of the Gators fans I know (I live in SoFL; I know a lot) expected a season that wasn't as spectacular as the ones they've previously under Meyer, but I don't think they expected more than three losses.  They have two more tough games to go, too - I suppose it's possible that they could host The Horror: Swamp Edition, and FSU actually has a better record than UF right now. Why?  Addazio's playcalling isn't great; as the announcers noted, some of their more talented players were just hanging out on the sidelines for most of the game, like Demps and Rainey.  Brantley isn't that great, and he doesn't fit the system that the veterans are used to running besides.  If Burton had some kind of spark, like he did in that one game earlier this year, Meyer is certainly canny enough to play him, but I'm pretty sure that he's not the answer this season, at least not the way Tebow was during his freshman season. I also like to think that their hold on recruiting isn't as good as it once was, but I think that's a pipe dream.  The state, in particular the south, is so talent-rich that we can snap up some of the players, but there are lots more to go around for UF and FSU and UM, even if the latter two aren't the giants they used to be.
2 years 26 weeks ago	Re: kicking	At this point, I'm not sure why they don't at least let Hagerup try a kick or two.  In the beginning of the season, he was obviously jittery and it was a little much to ask, but he's handling punts quite well now, as well as kickoffs, and I know he kicked in HS ... I mean, I don't think it would make our kicking game any worse to try it.
2 years 26 weeks ago	Bielema	Yeah, I'm also from Sconnie, and I have also heard that rumor.

2 years 28 weeks ago	I abhor losing to Paterno	but let's not pretend that he's actually coaching this team.
2 years 29 weeks ago	Not only that, but	I think it was pretty obvious (at least to me) that Carr wasn't going to be JoePa.  The years leading up to 2007, there seemed to be indications that he didn't plan on staying the head coach of Michigan forever.
2 years 29 weeks ago	Heartbreaking.	May he rest in peace.
2 years 29 weeks ago	You forgot the part where the	You forgot the part where the team is divided in half and Alabama runs one half (with help from their SEC West allies Arkansas and Auburn) and Florida runs the other half.

2 years 29 weeks ago	Jay Cutler	makes me long for the return of Sexy Rexy.  I think the two are kindred spirits, but there's just something about Sexy Rexy ...
2 years 29 weeks ago	Florida's situation is	Florida's situation is similar to ours in previous years, actually.  (Minus the recent NCs, of course.) They have a system that works for a lot of their players and their coach ... just not their QB.  Which means it pretty much doesn't work.  They would be playing a bit differently if they had DRob or Cam Newton.  As it stands, it ain't pretty.
