It KNOCKED the rose colored glasses off our collective heads with an axe handle. Is it even POSSIBLE that the coaches don't know how fans feel right now?)

It's not even about not showing up for that one game.

It's about not showing up for SC this year. It's about not showing up for Boise last year.
It's about not showing up for UCF. It's about Spurrier owning MR. It's about seeing the SEC winning the BCS title 8 times since 99 and having not one of those times being UGA.
It's about the decisions our coaching staff made last year against Mich State..
It's about running onto the field and celebrating like a bunch of never been there ass-clown D-1AA FCS school athletes might do when they upset a D-1 school all because
we scored on Florida.
It's about a leader who never admits he or his staff is ever at fault for anything..

I could go on and on listing what it's about, and I can guarantee anyone it's not about
1, 2, or even 3 things... it's about a LOT of things.

No disagreement from me on THAT point! Rather than correcting me, you EXPANDED, and did so CORRECTLY! Do you think there is ANY chance the coaches are unaware of the fan base on this?

I will say this and may eat these words come Saturday night but will say it again anyhoo.......

We outscore the gaytor offense and win in spite of our coaching. I think the weather will be a factor and slow down the gaytor running game and thier defensive front giving AM a little more time to throw the ball. Driskel is not known for his throwing ability and the wind will hamper him more than it will AM. Wet field will hamper both teams but will be more of an advantage to us then the gaytors. IMHO.

Hard for me to get stoked for the game and our OIC is a big gaytor fan and asked me today about my black Ga. polo, and I said I wore black today because I am in mourning.

I WANT to believe . . . I WANT to . . . TRYING . . .




Nope. Can't do it. I'm so GLAD you can. My glimmer of hope is gone.

They are totally unaware..

I am sure they think we are in an uproar about losing one game this season, and that's why they so easily dismiss
the sentiment we are expressing.

Most are posting the way I've felt for the last few years about UGA football. I'm not at all excited about the game this weekend. I'll be watching and pulling for the dawgs, but pretty much emotion-less.
I've become numb to college football, thanks to richt. If we win, hooray, if we lose, who cares.
Thanks, richt.

Imo, I think the weather (wind/rain) favors UF bigtime. Wind/rain effects the passing game much more than the running game.......and I just don't think we can run on them AT ALL unless we can be successful throwing the ball to SET UP the running game.

Spread the field and pass/run. I pray the weather moves on and it is dry and calm so AM can throw the ball because we won't run it down their throats like last year......again, just my opinion.

Just very difficult to throw the ball in wind/rain. UF won't care, their game plan won't change a bit....run, run, run with a few short throws.

My dear friends it’s been years since I visited but hey my username still works. Haha. Your original Gator in Georgia member here. The others are all imposters.
I came back to this site this morning to get a glimpse at what the enemy’s fans think about the upcoming game. It’s the kind of thing we all do when we are nervous. The week leading up to the Cocktail Party is always stressful for me and I am not as confident in the Gators inevitable domination of your beloved Dawgs. On paper? Sure. But this is a rivalry and anything can happen. A we all know the weather can be the great equalizer. I am surprised so many of you foresee such pending doom.
I am most surprised about the attitude towards a 6-1 team. Yes, the loss to the Cocks was ugly but hey it happens to the best of them. My Gators were BLOWN OUT by Nebraska in the championship game after going undefeated in ’95 and putting up tons of points all season. It happens.
Yes, some of the Dawgs victories seemed way too difficult than they should have. ’06 Gators were the same way and won the Championship. Now if the Gators stomp the Dawgs tomorrow then I’ll see your point but rest assured, if the Dawgs win, I can guarantee there will be a total flip-flop on this forum come Monday.
Good luck and may the deserving team win. I mean that.
