IS THE DOOR OPEN?
Cause we’re bringing friends.

Tebow. Capital One Bowl. Incoherent, angry, blood covered blood updates blood. NOW NOW BLOOD NOW.
1:22: Rich Rodriguez gave ‘em the playbook. Florida’s defense looks like they studied for a Latin test and got the Cuneiform. Michigan 7-0, thanks to Chad Henne’s sudden excellence and Florida’s continuing inability to pressure the passer.
1:38 p.m.: A holding penalty is Florida’s best defensive play thus far: a three and out and suddenly we remember that Florida’s traditionally a slow starter under Meyer. Panic level: three coffees.
2:00 p.m.: Updates will be slow and spastic thanks to anger, emotion, and periodic reassurances to TCOAN that we’re not about to spear the television with the MacBook.
2:18 p.m.: Manningham is a damn beast, and Henne makes a brilliant call on the audible to a run. Florida’s defense is an atrocity as it’s been most of the season. We’re on a huge cup of coffee and a fruit tart and thinking about the champagne, not because we want to celebrate, but because we need the booze. Holy smoking hell.
2:22 p.m.: Don’t look now, but the surefire blowout of Virginia by Texas Tech is now a 16-7 Cav lead.
2:28 p.m.: Like Ladanian Tomlinson doesn’t have some lame shit on his system? Play artist Silkk The Shocker! Suck on that, Mr. Famous-I’ll-make-fun-of-a-bust-ass-broke-teenager!
2:39: Thank you, Mike Hart.
3:00: 
3:31: Rain of frogs. Bloody seas. Anything else? This is an astonishingly ill-prepared team. It’s as if, in addition to our existing problems in pass coverage, we’ve sprouted a new lack of discipline and special teams problems! Dead in the water and taking it on below the waterline. No idea what can be done here.
4:04: Much broken furniture later, Florida has taken trash-talking dwarf Mike Hart’s fumble back for a tying TD. Now on Henne to destroy the secondary again. Someone steal Hart’s fish!

4:38: We’ve been through all the stages today. All of them. And there’s still five minutes left in this goddamned cardiac event of a game. Pills. A hammer. Something. There is no balm in Gilead for what this game is doing to the soul.
END: Well played. Michigan is the better team today. It’s hard to complain when you can’t defend a post route, can’t protect your quarterback, can’t kick a field goal, can’t…can’t win. Salut, monsieur Carr. We raise a glass of bubbly to you. Now go fishing and leave our team alone, because you were 2-0 against Florida.
ps. Michigan looked fast. Like, Big Ten fast.

Perhaps Florida should have taken notes from Appy State.
And why aren’t more teams doing this “Sunshine Kick” thing?

bnb,
You’re right, Arkansas lost. They lost to a really good Mizzou team. In fact, they got killed and that puts the SEC’s record at 5-1 in bowls.
Last I checked, Bama and Colorado were both 6-6 before the bowl and Tenn and Wisc had 4 and 3 losses respectively and the SEC won both of those games. Were they blow outs? No, but we won.
If Florida continues to piss this game away, you can talk, but until then we have the 07 champs, a team in this year’s BCS championship game and the best bowl record this year, so shut the hell up!

Mike Hart has never won a bowl game or beat Ohio State.
In my book, that makes him a bitch.

Not just fumbles, but fumbles on the 1 yard line -this is horrible (or great depending on who you’re rooting for).

PUNT FAKE!!!!
Way to deke ‘em out….and Percy Harvin is all the way down to the Wolverine 13 two plays later.

Brilliant fake punt! With this kind of momentum, they’re bound to fumble it on the two.

Until Harvin just busted that run, Michigan’s defense and Ron English were doing a pretty good job on Florida.

i just want him out of here so we can get some real talent behind center….i mean he is basically a fullback that cant throw

Wow, what a game. That is all for now. Hopefully my heart survives–I though for sure Urban had killed it with that fake punt.

What’s with all the vitriol?
Comment by PW — January 1, 2008 @ 3:32 pm
Ooh touchy. Someone criticizes your mythical vaunted league and it is vitriol. SEC fans do it to others and it is “humor.”
Florida can still win if the crackpots from the Tebow Cult pray harder.

If you average Manningham and Hart’s 40s you get about a 5.4.

Judging by the self-rocking Zookbus, the next bowl may actually be entertaining.
