To recall the smug Seminoles telling me, “You guys always have some excuse,” as we walked down the ramp of the North endzone nosebleeds, provides an appropriate context for my memory of the last 4 years.

FSU can and always will go fuck themselves. Thanks.

“Studebaker – Better than it has to be.” Their ad slogan – honestly.

The hell I say! Jobbed by ACC refs, not beaten by that F$U team on the field!

Florida should change that one to a “W” in their media guide. I hear that’s what the SOW did with that “Lane Fenner catch” game.

Also, etsuVol is just upset because his school failed at football so bad, they just stopped playing.

45 TO 12!!!

It delights me to no end to know that an entire class of SOW graduating seniors (last year) does not know what it feels like to beat Florida. And at the rate that they are going, expect that trend to continue.

And Orson, it’s not “going on” 5 times, we HAVE beat them 5 times in a row!!!

While it’s true their bad behavior happened before the actual #1 ranking, people were talking about them being ranked #1 during and right after bowl season.

As for having contempt for a team that get’s fired up and loses, well, I have a lot more contempt for a team that resigns to losing before playing the game. How can you hold it against Georgia, or any other team for that matter, for getting excited to win? I hate the Vols, but I don’t see the point in playing them if they don’t want to win. That’s not a contest. You shouldn’t expect any different from Georgia, even if Goff and Donnan couldn’t get it done.

If the actions that you are referring to are the off-season arrests, what on earth does that have to do with beating Florida and Hawaii? Or being ranked number 1 (the rankings took place after the arrests)?

While expert40 is undeniably an idiot, I’m not exactly sure what you’re doing injecting the Vols into this. I have also noticed that Georgia does beat Tenn on occasion (5-5 over the last 10, 5-3 over the last 8). I’m also wondering what you mean in suggesting that we “look how Georgia acts”, as though being ranked number 1 in the pre-season is all a matter of the way a program acts or that the way the Dawgs are acting somehow impacted the polling. Find me a quote from Coach Richt that suggests that Georgia is resting on it’s laurels. Please.

Finally, I don’t think that teams that schedule teams from C-USA (UAB, ‘07 record 2-10), the MWC (Wyoming, ‘07 record 5-7), and the MAC (N. Illnois, ‘07 record 2-10) have much room to throw stones at UGA for playing Southern. Just sayin’.

would this salary encourage him to take one more beating…for the sake of the institution?

And academic “standards” took a backseat to football when Bowden assumed the reigns of the administration when Sandy D’Alemberte was told that under no condition would Peter Warrick not play in their bowl game. Since then the reservation has been run by a community college president and hack politician who is intent on bringing the wrath of the NCAA down upon the narrow shoulders of the fourth-best team in Florida.

The tradition of kicking those beneath us runs deeply through our proud Gator veins…

FSU, Standards? Surely you jest sir. We are, after all, discussing an “academic” institution that, in the mid 80’s, elected a male homecoming queen.

Going 2-2 versus Florida constitutes “owning” them now, eh? My, how the FSU standards have fallen.
