Just a few thoughts on UF v USU Game........
1. THE Ohio school got 82 total yards. Eighty-two total yards in a 60 minute football game! Wonder how many years that record will stand in a Championship Game.

2. THE Heisman trophy winner was 4-14 for 35 yards with one Int. and one fumble. He also had 10 rushes for MINUS 29 yards. If there was any integrity in Columbus, Ohio someone would ship that Heisman Trophy to it's rightful owner, that kid from Arkansas. Maybe it was all the pressure of being The Heisman winner,according to Eddie George. Let me tell you about pressure in a Championship Game. In '96 Florida played it's blood and guts, arch rival for the championship. So in the event of a loss it's not like you lose to a foe halfway across the country like in Nebraska or Ohio or someplace. A loss means your hated rivals wins the championship. Heisman winner, Danny Wuerffel went ...........get this...... 20-35 for 401 yards with 6 TD's against FSU to administer the worst loss by a #1 team in a bowl game since the AP Poll was founded back in the 1930's.

3. THE Ohio school's opening kick-off TD should have been called back. Florida's Reggie Nelson was held twice just has he was approaching Ginn for the probable tackle. In spite of the TV guys showing that play about 5 times the media boys NEVER mentioned the blatant holding on that play.

3. Ted Ginn hurt his foot after the Kick-off return TD on his CELEBRATION. What a jack ass. He's jumping around taunting Gator fans with the "Shhh" sign with his finger over his lips and breaks his foot.

4. THE Ohio school's strength? Florida controlled the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. On that stupid play when Tressel went for that 4th and one, The Gator nose guard shoved the Ohio center 3 yards back into the back field. On a dive play the center can't even hold his own much let get any forward push. The Ohio school..... not just slow but weak, as well.

5. And regarding integrity in Columbus, Ohio......... if their was any they'd send their National champ trophy from '03 or '04 or whenever they played Miami back to Coral Gables. The bogus pass interference call that allowed them to "win" was outrageous.

6. No. Getting unmitigated sh*t put on you because you, "didn't belong," first by Meat-chicken and their loser coach, LLLLLoyd Carr and then by THE Ohio school fans doesn't make one bitter at all.

7. Crow tastes great with mango salsa, I'm told.

1. What really got me about this game was the pre-game crap
The endless hype about how great Ohio State was and how Florida did not deserve to be playing them. Heck, to listen to the talking heads, no team in the country deserved to play Ohio State because Ohio State was just so wonderful and blah, blah, blah.

I'm glad that Flordia won. I'm a SEC fan and it was good to see most of the "experts" proven wrong.

2. 7 Buckeye points in 59 minutes and 40 seconds
against a mediocre team from a mediocre conference. I guess OSU will just have to keep trying. Maybe the 10th will be the charm since they are ZERO and nine against SEC teams in bowl games.

As per Ginn, I refer him to John Riggins who said you should act like you are going to get back into the end zone another time after you score a touchdown.

And to think how the Gators floundered through the pitiful SEC.

Maybe Michigan did deserve to be in the championship game after all.

And that silly southern round robin. Arkansas beats Auburn, Auburn beats Florida, Florida beats Arkansas. Too bad the SEC isn't as totally fucking awesome as the Big Ten.

Oh those wacky Hogs, kept awesome Wisconsin to MINUS FIVE YARDS RUSHING in the Capital One bowl and yet the Badgers won by going offsides when Arkansas blocked a punt, thereby giving the "penalized" team plus 60 yards on the "penalty" after their second shot at a punt. Go Big Ten. Just fucking awesome.

But I digress.
