DUH-DUH-DAAAAAHHH-DUH: HEY BAMA!

Congratulations. Good game.

i wouldn’t say UF beat the hell out of them

Good Game, Ugly fuckin jerseys.

I like the jerseys. The helmets are ass.

I like the helmets. Jerseys looked like generic advertisment jerseys, like in the old days when Schenider drank a “Beer” brand beer.

Flaps down, JPW, flaps down!

Yeah, that was quite a beating. You guys got your asses beat up and down the field until Bama got a little desperate and gave the game away. Doesn’t even compare to the skullcrushing you guys took in Tuscaloosa last year.

By the way, does UF have an exclusive deal with the SEC under which they can’t be called for delay of game? Three times today the playclock sat at zero before the snap without a flag. And nice work by the crew (replay official included) on the opening drive of the game, taking away a clear first down, without so much as a review.

That all said, Bama’s got some problems (LB being a major one).

I’m not sure ‘Bama fans can complain about officiating considering the Field Goal double standard that worked completely in the Tide’s favor

“We gave the game away” is the song of losers everywhere. Just as Johnelle Smith.

3 Questions:
1) Is Percy going to be ok for LSU?
2) Has anyone heard about Marcus Thomas’s appeal (I’ve read some Message board stuff about him coming back for LSU but I don’t know if thats solid)?
3)On what planet can an Offense which fails to score a Touchdown be siad to be dominate?

Whooo-Hooo!!!! Take that Arkansas! You can no longer say you are the only ones to beat Bama this year!!!!!

I dig the throwback unis. They kind of remind me of the old AFL Chargers . . . or the Fightin’ Forbushmen.

Does Alabama have an exclusive deal with the SEC under which they can’t be called for holding?

I have a feeling that Orson’s mancrush on Reggie Nelson may have just hit a new height. He probably had to change his shorts after the interception.

Coach Meyer impresses me more and more every week. HIs ability to learn and adjust in both the short term and the long term is really first rate. The Gators are much better than last year and they’ve really bought into his way of doing things. And I thought that Florida’s offense made some nice adjustments after a dismal first quarter and most of the second quarter. I’m really happy he’s our coach.

The one thing I don’t understand is why Florida would want to do throwback jerseys. Why recall an era of suck? On second thought, that may have explained UF’s first half.

And JPW did his best Erik Ainge impersonation but fell short there as well.

Pretty sad when Alabama’s unis look more traditional than Florida’s “throwback” unis from the 60’s. Ugliest jerseys I have ever seen in person. And Yes the rumors are true Florida fans LOVE JEAN SHORTS, LOVE them, I thought it was a stupid stereotype but it is def. true. And I also want to thank the 2 300 pound gator fans that actually pushed me 2 seats down by the end of the game.

From a Texas fan:

Nice game today Gators. This site has the best humor I have read in a long while. I’m always amazed at how much you guys in the SEC hate each other. I mean, we have our thing with the land thieves (see bob poops) but you guys are hard core. I mean does anyone like Auburn except Auburn?

Love the jorts
Love the Orgeron humor
Hate Arkansas…please make them bleed.

Put the mute on ESPN2 and loop the Coach O song. It ’s syncing up nicely now. Why do I feel like this song is a missing track from Southern Rock Opera?

Appears that [NAME REDACTED] won the [NAME REDACTED] bowl. [NAME REDACTED ALSO] now looks to be in more danger than the great pectoral Amato.

Oh yeah, there was a beating today in Blacksburg, VA. Pat Nix may have this football shit figured out after all.

Yeah, F-Troop. Yeah! F-TROOP!

YAWAYAWYAWYAWYAYAWYAWYAW

football

(orgeron song)

i met some bama chicks, they’d all been ridden hard and put up wet though

i enjoy the frequent discussions of national championships

I believe that was the ‘era of suck’ that saw Spurrier win a Heisman, not to mention the heroics of Jack Younglbood – that is to say, the career of two of the four inductees into the Ring of Honor ceremony held right before the game.

And I’ve got to admire Rainmaker, talking smack like a grad of the U even after consecutive losses. Too bad their big non-conference bout with Duke next week will break the run, and prevent us from seeing what heights he can achieve with three consecutive losses…

peachy,

just calling ’em like i see ’em. what took place today was hardly a beating.

as for chris’s allusion to holds that weren’t called, what an absolute joke. if Gilberry is missing the letters from the back of his jersey, i’ve got a pretty good idea where he can find them.

and what was the “field goal double standard?” oh, you mean the one that Hetland missed and the one that Christiansen made? please don’t pretend those two kicks were equally questionable—that’s absolutely absurd. hell, Hetland’s may have been good (although I thought it was pretty clear that at least half the ball was not inside the upright plane), but Christiansen’s was, without question, good.

Texas Fan,

No, No one likes Auburn. Although they do have the nations best “trucker’s skool”. So, they got that going for them.

Thank god those Bama fans are leaving Gainesville.

What a nasty bunch of rednecks!!! Now the Hotel owners can burn the mattresses they slept on since the slime of Bama won’t come off.

Did anyone notice how many truely hick fans they have?

I think it must be requirement to be a Bama fan that you have to have an ugly mustache, be obnoxious, be married to a 250 lb bleach blonde dumbass of a woman, and to be missing several teeth. The smell of Bama fans will linger inside the Swamp for weeks.

And their Ramma Jamma song? I think it’s a tribute to their gay fantasies. Truely, Bama is the worst of the SEC and wish that they could be Auburn.

You know Bama fans are totally dillusional. You don’t beat them.

They either beat themselves or they give it to the other team.

They absolutely deserve to be mediocre.

Bama fans never put an L on the results of a game, they put a G for a gift to the other team.

To hell with Bama and all their fans.

2 of the 4 players in the ring of honor (which is only 2) is probably not an “era of suck” by Florida’s historical standards, but for teams in the historical top 20, it is an era of suck.

Delays of game were missed, but BAMA’s TD came straight from poor officiating. On third down, the referees felt a need to suddenly stop play to explain the game of football to Shula. That totally disrupted the rhythm, resulting in the false start and subsequent fumble/TD as the 3rd down was no longer. There was a point latr in the game when he though he could run on the field and throw a tantrum to get play halted. That’s what timeouts are for (well, that and stupid challenges of clear TDs).

Texas Fan, lay off of Stoops. Although we can all agree that his team did not belong in the national championship a couple seasons back when Auburn (the school we all hate) was CLEARLY the best team in the nation, he did earn his first national Championship ring in Gainesville, and he and Steve Spurrier Jr. won their second together in Norman.

Keep up the smack talk Bama fans. Maybe your offense will score 3 field goals next week. You’ve had plenty of practice.

Rammer Jammer, We dropped the hammer.
We just beat the Hell out of YOU!

Ok, nice game Gators.
I thought there were an awful lot of Tide fans there for the game. A win is a win but that was not a beating.
The game was in question for three quarters.
Really enjoyed Gainesville for the first time, I’ve been to many games there but never really had a good time outside the game. Damn shame we don’t play more often. Nice collection of the females there in G’ville but if I see another jean skirt I may throw up.

GatorSeoul, thanks for think. Fascinating stuff, actually.

T’was a good game. For those of us not at the game it was unbelievable how many times “Verne” called The Gators, “alabama”, and vice versa. Absolutely pathetic announcing, and as usual, very biased against Florida. I hate CBS almost as much as auburn. :P

It was a fun three quarters, but I’m not real fond of the 3:30 kickoff time. I felt like a pan-fried egg way up there in the eastern stands. Oh well, can’t beat the student price!

Man, how did FL drop that last pick, was he looking to the endzone already? My buddy had money on FL -15.5, with four minutes left he goes, “If florida picks two and returns them for TD’s, I’ll run naked to my house while doing the gator chomp”. that woulda been funny.

Orson, and the rest of the Gator Nation-

Good game. We had a great time in Gainesville. It was my first time, and the town was a lot of fun. Most of the fans were great after the game. A lot of them got us pretty sloshed at the Salty Dog after the game, and for that, I salute you.

Go Gators!

Rainmaker – You’re right. Give Bama three more yards in the opening drive and the game probably ends up Bama by 20. Thank God the refs hate you guys.

Way to pull out the win, Gators. Even though your uni’s looked worse than Prothro’s leg after last years game.
Also, Urban: Yes, Leak had an amazing run to set up our first TD, but running the QB draw 4 times in a game, just with Leak, is completely unacceptable. I hear that Dallas Baker felow is a pretty good receiver, same with Cornelius. A couple deep throws down the field wouldnt be so bad, would they?

I couldn’t believe the “no calls” on blocks in the back by Alabama. Then on the replay the next morning I saw we got away with one on the Nelson TD return.

And now that we can’t leave the stands during halftime, and I actually watch the bands; I don’t know which was more disturbing: that our band completely sucked compared to Alabama’s or that we have a male flag twirler.

‘Beating’ is a special SEC term referring to a win greater than a field goal e.g. Auburn laid a ‘beating’ on LSU 7-3.

Congratulations Gators…I can honestly say the majority of gator fans in G-ville were hospitable and I really enjoyed the weekend

That said…thanks Joe Kines for switching to the 3-3-5 when Fla was 95 yards away from scoring at the end of the first half…pathetic

EDSBS Gators,
Congratulations, well fought game. Just a case of the better team winning a game. And yes, I am a Bama fan that can admit defeat without blaming a ref.

Hi.

I had no dog in this fight, so my mind did wander quite a bit while watching the fourth quarter…

The unis that the Gators wore…were they custom helmets, jerseys, and pants ordered for this game, or did they just order jerseys and pants and paint the usual helmets? If custom ordered, how much would something like that cost (figure at least 100 helmets), along with the custom jerseys and pants? I imagine it ain’t cheap, and for only one game….

I’m not being critical at all, so please don’t read anything into my asking. It would just seem like a lot of cash outlay for a one-game deal.

Congrats to the Gators, and condolences for Bama…..good luck with rest of your seasons….

JGB

Congrats on your win at home against an unranked team….that had already lost to Arkansas….

Sorry, but you guys deserve that for all the chest thumping….

BTW, love the unis, but lose those helmets ASAP…

it was custom ordered, and the game used helmets were all auctioned off at a fundraiser the night before. CBS says the fundraiser raised about 6 million all in all.

The ‘bama fan in front of me was wearing jorts. Shouldn’t this cause a rip in the space-time continuum?

JGB, I can’t answer all of your questions, but I did hear (I think on the SunTV pre-game show) that the helmets were special orders, and that they are going to be given to certain boosters after the game. There was a major fundrasing gala the night before the Bama game (raised $6.1M), and the 1966-style helmets were going to those folks who bought tables (100 tables at $50K per). [I may have any number of details wrong here but I think I’m close.]

That was a game to remember.

ChompEm types faster than I do!

JGB,

The helmets were just for this game only, throwbacks to the 60’s. They were auctioned off at the 100 year celebration booster event the night before. I think the gala raised like 6.1 million and while I’m sure the helmets didn’t raise a large percentage of that total I’d guess they more then paid for themselves.

Thanks for the info….I didn’t catch CBS’ s info about the fundraiser…I was switching around between 3-4 games quite a bit, so much of the TV commentary didn’t really register…..

Just to reiterate, my question was not a criticism, just more of a “what would all this cost and is it worth it?” kinda thing. If UF was able to use them to raise all that scratch, then it could safely be deduced that it was worth the effort.

Again, good luck on both your seasons….

Good game Gators. Final score didn’t indicate how close the game was, but Florida was the better team. I think Orson’s love for Nelson is matched by Gary Danielson’s affection for Tebow. Geez, I got physically ill listening to it.

Congrats to the Gators. They clearly were the better team.

Best of luck the rest of the way.

i find it comical that bama fans take consolation in the fact that they beat us worse last year than we beat them this year. typical of them to always be living in the past. i guess they will always have the nostalgia of that 2005 win and their “magical” 10-2 season which, by their math, brought them their 13th national championship.

They mocked the chomp after Hetland’s “missed” FG, thereby ensuring another Gator victory!

hard fought game on both sides. I think Baker is the Calvin Johnson of the SEC. That guy is sick. Robinson played a great game against him and he still made huge plays. Congrats Gators, I have had better memories from the swamp than that.

Bammers will yell that chant after a one pt squeeker win, so enough of the garbage from you.

we had the biggest bama 60 year old asswipes sitting in our section (in the alumni section surrounded by 10,000 hardcore bull gators. we were polite until they got obnoxious – I guess ‘bama hasn’t lead in a game yet this year?? They kept talking about how great they were in 1954 or some crap.

If I went to Tuscaloosa and scalped 2 tix in the middle of the alumni section, I would have had a slightly more laid back attitude about things.

Rest of ’Bama fans in and out of the stadium were cool though.

I would have been here sooner…but the drugs just wore off. Congratulations and best of luck as the season plays on. The fact our beating did not objectively compare to the festivities last year does little to reduce my consternation. That may not give ya’ll the warm and fuzzy feeling you were looking for, but it will have to do. As an aside, I will be surprised if either team in Atlanta is undefeated.

By the way, ten bucks says that bamah8trgtr guy is really an aubrun fan…..

bamableg – well said. last year was cool. UF was in diapers. but (as much as bamans hate to admit) its all about who’s star is RISING and who is the aging star never to be heard from again. Mike Shula? Betty Davis? Urban Meyer? Simon Cowell? whatever.

I agree 100% about your Atlanta comment for ’ 06 but not ‘07 or ’08 or ’09. SEC rules!!!!! however, UF (if you didn’t notice) plays 10-14 freshman each game – RIGHT NOW THIS YEAR – in crunch time!! unbelieveable!!. Let’s see, that means the core of the team will be sophomores next year……………..

I think Bama may be up and coming also.

Young talent on both O and D lines, two very good, but not great, junior wideouts, soph QB and the possibility of Prothro coming back next year.

Defense hasn’t dropped off as badly as feared, even with 3 guys from last years D starting in the NFL as rookies.

Jaybuzz – I hope so for alabama. there’s hope – then there is overwhelming evidence and reality and expectations..

not trying to be homer here – but my god – if you sit in the stands in person and watch what these UF freshmen are doing with literally months of college under their belts. not talking about a line – for as much is made about lines – and yes you need a solid line – its the skill positions after the lines cancel each other out.

tellin you – you heard it hear first – just watch UF skill positions for the next 2-4 years…

worthless factoid – coached a lot of years myself at many levels……linemen can hurt you if they are subpar – but at the mediocre level they are just fluff in the marshmallow.. good luck with your great linemen making TDs for you.. no disrespect – just experienced opinion…….we’ll have to see – that’s what makes it fun!

“Bammers will yell that chant after a one pt squeeker win, so enough of the garbage from you. "

Hey, Vandy!
Hey, Vandy!
Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah………………

"

Moral victories abound. They’re claiming one because South Carolina played a close game w/ Auburn. Pitiful and sad little people.

rggator…your thoughts regarding the importance of lineman might be true for pop warner…probably explains why you’re not coaching anymore

rg gator…did the neb/fla line “cancel each other out” in the ’96 Fiesta Bowl…“then skill positions take over”…you poor dumb fuck

What’s up with Gary Danielson? Is it me or is he an idiot?
