CRY, LITTLE BOY. CRY.

We’d stop doing this, but we just can’t. The hangover’s just too sweet to relinquish.

Your tears…they bring us joy. We drink them from your Heisman-winning skull.

This is going getting into Cartman vs. Scott Tenorman sadism:

“Yes! Yesss! Oh, let me taste your tears, Scott! Mmm, your tears are so yummy and sweet! Oh, the tears of unfathomable sadness! My-yummy! “

84 yards. Even Shula was able to put up more than that on Florida Field.

You only get to do this so many times, Tzubear. And when you’ve been beaten 62-24 on national television, you gotta enjoy being on the handle end of the sword.

Oh, we’ll get ours again undoubtedly. But the sun feels so gooooooooood right now. Why not enjoy it? Especially when you know letdown tweener year is bound to follow.

considering this is the first time that the dual championship has ever occurred, i think florida fans deserve a little bragging. especially with the realistic chance that we could have a football championship sandwiched by bball ones.

Meyer recruits too well for the tweener year to be much of a let down.

Keep in mind I think I’m (much) sicker than you. I have no ‘dog in the race’ and I keep watching and laughing at that clip.

That is a great piece of work, though I held out hope until the end that someone had a shot of Herbstreit balling his eyes out in the fetal position under the ESPN desk.

Oh well, Saturday is sure to be a huge, kickass party in Ben Hill Griffin. Actually, this whole week has been a kickass party.

So is it safe to say that ND did a whole lot better in its bowl game than OSU did? I mean christ, we put up more than 84 yards of offense at least.

Comment by Wooderson — January 11, 2026 @ 4:53 pm

Damn right we deserve it! Two national championships in one year? And hell, after all the smack we were getting about THE Ohio State University impending ass-pounding they were to give us… a little payback is in order.

Only one thing missing from that video…the shot of OSU’s Defensive End breathing so hard in the fourth quarter that his eyes nearly bulged out of his head…and then later puking his guts out on the sideline (or so I am told).

The tweaner year will depend on decisions from Siler, Nelson, Moss, Smith and, to a lesser extent because we have some depth, Caldwell. If we lose all early, it will be tough.

Moss and Nelson would hurt, but arnt there good young LB’s in the wings?

That was one of the most gratuitously cruel things I’ve ever seen . . . and yet since it was at the expense of the Buckeyes, I strangely don’t care.

That said, I’d wreck that blond chick they showed after the Troy Smith fumble.

Comment by Doug — January 11, 2026 @ 5:27 pm

Our LBs in the wings were true freshmen this year. So who knows how they’ll be. And behind them will be true freshmen. Zook recruited alot of athletes, but not always according to the most pressing needs.

“especially with the realistic chance that we could have a football championship sandwiched by bball ones. ”

As good as Billy the Kid’s squad is, I’m fairly certain the College Sports Gods won’t allow such gluttony.

Plus, this year’s Gator hoops squad won’t have the luxury of skipping through the first three rounds or so of the tourney in relative obscurity, but will have to win six straight on neutral courts with a gigantic target on their backs… there’s a reason only one team has done that since the tournament expanded to 64 teams…(the Grant Hill/Laettner/Hurley Duke squad, and even they needed one of the all-time miracle buzzer-beaters to get it done)… it’s freakin’ hard to do twice, even when a team is great.

RE #14

Doug, that blond chick appears to have been the only OSU chick I’d consider hitting.

Orson, I know you were upset about being #11 in the SEC for hot chicks, but seriously, Ohio State has to be around #110.

That recruitment video we’ve all seen on YouTube notwithstanding, of course.

I love the part near the beginning when the white guy sits down to cry and the brother just looks at him and shakes his head.

#7..

Uhh.. no it isn’t. Kentucky was recognized in a few polls as the #1 team after the 1950 football season. Remember that some polls were taken then before the bowls, and UK did lose their bowl game but it didn’t matter.

Their mens basketball team won the tournament in March of 1951.

Just sayin..

Comment by Hobnail_Boot — January 11, 2026 @ 7:25 pm

Edit: They lost their regular season finale to Tennessee and won the Sugar Bowl. Still finished #1 in the Libby and Sagarin polls.

Am I the only one who noticed the Buckeye in the blue and white striped shirt and said to himself: “what would motivate someone to wear an FC Porto jersey to a national title game? And he’s two years removed from being European champion, so why so glum?”

Yes? Ok.

Yeah, the LB position is going to take a hit. Crum and Everett are both seniors, and there’s a good chance that Siler is gone. However, Doe, Spikes and Stamper are all quality LB’s. Hopefully we get some added depth from the incoming class.

I didn’t ID it as a Porto shirt, but I had the same reaction otherwise. Still, turned out to be a good decision for post-game exit.

#27, #30 - There was some jackass sitting in front of us (and next to 4 UF fans - who were cool, BTW) with a Michigan hat & sweatshirt. I’m not really sure if that was in support of the Big 10 or against tOSU. I’m inclined to believe the latter. Either way, it’s like wearing a Ravens jersey to the Chargers/Eagles Super Bowl.

This is also my 3rd post since the a$$ beating we took. I’ve now moved well into acceptance. But I have to say this: the Gator Chomp has now moved up the list to #2 between #1 “Hail to the Victors” and #3 “The Tomahawk Chop” of CFB traditions I can’t stand. I don’t know where it was before that.

If college football alone doesn’t already have a roman gladiator thing going for it, the gator chomp definitely seems like something from that era. It’s like the hoi polloi are screaming “FEED THOSE LOUSY CHRISTIANS TO THOSE IMPORTED EGYPTIAN GATORS!”

To the victor goes the spoils…. and with that beatdown,, er, victory went a lot of spoils. Congrats.

Alas, if you’re going to talk about tears, one can’t help but think of the Urban Legend bawling after DeMeco Ryans and Mark Anderson made the entire Florida Offensive line thier bitch on or about October 1, 2005.

“We play defense at Alabama.” DeMeco Ryans 2005.

Only 10 more championships to go until you catch UA gators.

Hey Alex Hamilton….has anyone told you yet that the Bear is dead? Don’t you think you ought to win more than one national championship without him before you go back to living in the seventies?

And I believe that Urban cried after the LSU game, not the ‘Bama game. Hell, he just won a national championship — I don’t care if he cried when he saw “Beaches”. (Note that UF has been able to sustain success with more than one coach)

Anyway, enjoy your two years with Saban. I’m sure it will be a fun ride until he finds a better job.

To paraphrase Andy Garcia from his best film…

Boat drinks for everyone in orange and blue!!!

Now, get the hell over yourselves and admit that the road back seems more difficult than it is to get there in the first place. Let’s see… list of coaches who somehow find it hard to find their way back to the top:

- B. Stoops
- P. Fulmer
- P. Carroll
- B. Tressel
- N. Saben
- B. Bowden
- L. Coker
- M. Brown (TX)
- J. Paterno

Let’s see…did I leave anyone (worth talking about) out?….. ohhhhh yeahhh….one more

- S. Spurrier

Hope that new circular design (with dot in middle) on the back of your jerseys doesn’t clash with the school colors!!

Re: #39,

Didn’t a couple of the coaches you named actually win multiple national championships (though one of Pete Carroll’s is questionable)? That being the case, I’d say they didn’t have too much trouble finding their way back to the top.

Also, couldn’t we just make that new bullseye design orange and blue so it doesn’t clash?

Comment by PW — January 12, 2026 @ 7:48 am

I may incur the wrath of the email army known as Kentucky fans, but to claim the 1950 national championship based on a retroactive Sagarin poll is pretty retarded. Maybe in ten years UF can get a sagarin ranking for “on-campus women of 2006″ so the 10th place finish will be wiped from the books. Just think what you will be able to claim-BCS championship and made-up hottness list in the same year!

I think Saban’s going to have more problems recruiting than the ‘Bama fans seem to believe. After they gave him all the booster money in salary, what’s going to be left over to spend on players?

Comment by DevilGrad — January 12, 2026 @ 8:58 am

If Tebow really ignites the spread option next year Urban Meyer will be in serious danger of becoming the Yankee (pleather jacket, no visor) 2nd Coming of Spurrier; e.g. a snarky, sarcastic, dude who puts up millions of points on you by with a crazy offense (passing short and getting tricksy instead of bombing away a la OBC) led by mayonnaise white, devoutly Christian QB and gloats about afterward causing deadly hatred by all UF rivals. Hopefully the scenario can be completed by the Redskins drafting Chris Leak in the later rounds and setting on the bench for 2-3 years, at which team Joe Gibbs will totter off into senility and Dan Snyder can haul in the Urbinator to run Leak off the bench and lead the Skins’ to a couple season of mediocrity before splitting to go coach at whatever SEC school Saban has recently vacated.

The only way this game could have been better is if the Gators had forced OSU to kneel before them and admit their evil and errant ways.

Now, as long as my team can beat the $hit out of the Gators next year…

I actually felt bad for that little kid. Been there. This game probably felt like his whole life, and he’s too young to really remember/appreciate their last MNC. From me he gets a “Buck up, kid. Just wait until you like girls more than football. The pain is much worse then.”

The two consenting adults with red and gray face paint, who spent who knows how much of their own cash and vacation time to be there, and who certainly are old enough to appreciate a recent MNC… not so much. They get the Nelson laugh from me.

I tivo’d this game and as I was rewatching it I found my favorite parts were when they showed the sad faces of the Ohio St fans. Even during the game me and my friends would start laughing everytime we saw them looking like they’d been punched in the stomach. I have a friend who’s an Ohio St fan (he’s in hiding right now) - they all thought we didn’t stand a chance. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Let the schaudenfreude begin!

Harvey Wireman: The only thing more deranged than an Alabama fan is an Alabama fan that thinks they have a chance of winning anytime soon.

There’s a distinction?

A woman married three times walked into a bridal shop one day and told the sales clerk that she was looking for a wedding gown for her fourth wedding.
“Of course, madam,” replied the sales clerk, “exactly what type and color dress are you looking for?”
The bride to be said: “A long frilly white dress with a veil.”

The sales clerk hesitated a bit, then said, “Please don’t take this the wrong way, but gowns of that nature are considered more appropriate for brides who are being married the first time - for those who are a bit more innocent, if you know what I mean? Perhaps ivory or sky blue would be nice?”

“Well,” replied the customer, a little peeved at the clerk’s directness, “I can assure you that a white gown would be quite appropriate. Believe it or not, despite all my marriages, I remain as innocent as any first-time bride. You see, my first husband was so excited about our wedding; he died as we were checking into our hotel. My second husband and I got into such a terrible fight in the Limo on our way to our honeymoon that we had that wedding annulled immediately and never spoke to each other again.”

“What about your third husband?” asked the sales clerk.

“Oh”, she said, “He was a bama fan and all he did for five years was sit on the side of the bed and tell me how good it was going to be”.

A floridian thinking that people in Alabama need to learn class. You’re way out of touch with reality Harvey. You were probably one of the millions of “classy” gaytors laughing as Prothro was carted off the field.

And another thought for Baconboy. We don’t live in the 70’s at Alabama, no more than UF fans live in the ’90’s,, well, I will pretend that UF fans don’t live in the ’90’s. Alabama fans simply laugh to ourselves when we think that if Florida won the SEC for another 14 consecutive years that maybe they might over take Alabama in 2022 for the most SEC championships. That’s a really funny thought.

Congratulations on winning the national championship. I hope for your sakes that the momentum continues. Just in case, I went ahead and purchased the domain name “fireurbanmeyer.com”, as l’m certain some classy Florida fan would want it once you loose to FSU next season and when Alabama takes over the SEC.

Enjoy this time. Because, you’re all on notice as of last week. Hell is coming, and Alabama is coming with it.

“What I would like for every football team to do that we play is to sit there and say, â€˜I hate playing against these guys. I hate playing them. Their effort, their toughness, relentless resiliency, go out every play and focus, play the next day, compete for 60 minutes in the game, I can’t handle that.’”
