So I’m not the only one who dreams about football? That’s good.

My team is 3-8 this year, FFS. You will have to pry last year’s Cap One Bowl away from my cold, dead grasp.

Hey scalz1,

All you needed was a “I’m not going to make excuses. but …” in front of all that whining and you would’ve earned the Charlies Weis Bitchass Merit Badge.

Remember, had Mike Hart not inexplicably fumbled twice within three yards of the endzone (the third and fourth fumbles of his career, I believe), that game would have been a full-on beatdown.

Highlights of the Gator beatdown of OSU with a soundtrack of The Rezillos? That beats the hell out of the crappy turn of the millenium cliche nu-metal bullshit so many people use. Good old fashioned punk rock will never get old.

PW@42:

He had his mediocre games, and some might argue that he never lived up to his #1 recruit reputation. But what no one can argue with is that he played a virtually flawless game in the desert in January of 2007 and led his team to a national championship in his last game as a college quarterback.

And that’s not something players like, say, Troy Smith or Todd Boeckman can claim.

#34 John (and Orson)

There is nothing untrue about Orson’s assessment of Chris Leak. We won the MNC that year despite him, not because of him. I was sitting in the stands behind the endzone in Knoxville in 2006 when he employed one of his trademark slides 2 yards short of one of the most critical 1st downs of the entire season and untested freshman Tim Tebow had to rescue us. And I completely agree with the off-field good citizen part too.

@38
After back to back Basketball Championships and being the only school in history to be Football and Basketball Champions at the same time….I’ll take a year of writing with crayons….after all we’re back in SECCG, possibly back in the NC game, and Gator Hoops appear to be back on track and very strong.

Tork @ 32-
I guess having a QB that was literally popping his shoulder back into place after every lay, the all time leading rusher unable to play, the #1 receiver being hurt, and the field condition had nothing to do with UM “managing ” a FG vs the mighty OSU. That’s one to hang your hat on.

Isn’t that a little like saying ‘well, I haven’t been laid in three years – but hey, my sister let me kiss her twice’?

@ #35:
Hey, that’s clever.
I bet it’s been pretty tough for the Gators to take their exams with #12 and #13 pencils in two of the last three years. At least #2 is in the top ten.

Barwis is suiting up at QB and the O-line will be replaced with his team of wolves. M will thus hang 72 on the tresses of Tressel’s girls, covering the spread… in the other direction.

I know this from the vision I had in my sweat lodge last night.

Sorry, Orson. I�ll never let you live that down.

That makes two of us.

My 9 yr old little girl’s FAVORITE joke, that she tells every person she sees wearing buckeye gear of any type:

What do Ohio State football and basketball players take their exams with?

#2 pencils

“He�s not that good, and never will be. There�s no anger in saying that, no resentment, and no bitterness. It�s just what he is, a statement made free of predjudice, irrational reasoning, and malice. Off the field, he�s everything you�d want a player to be: polite, a good citizen, and a dedicated member of the community. On the field, he�s Doug Johnson with slightly better wheels, and there�s three and a half years of game tape to prove it.”

Sorry, Orson. I’ll never let you live that down.

a couple months later.

0-9 vs. the SEC in football.
moment of silence?

hopefully Richt doesn’t lay an egg when he meets teh sweatervest in florida in the Capitoutback Bowl or whatever.
it would really suck to be the guy/team that lost to tOSU and embarrassed the conference….
lol
