True, Changing that culture down there is almost equal to Trump's current task!But tell him to dump the BLING...very Gang Bang... Classless
Thanks for the congrats. Hard fight on both sides by two teams that forgot how to play good football. Neither deserved to win, glad we squeeked it out after trying so hard to give the game away.
Our D's are more spectacular than Miami's D'sIts not how good your A game is, its how good is your D game? Our D game was better than Miami's D game.
I will be very surprised if they are only a one loss team in a few months. I agree with your talent assessment, but that O-line will be the death of them. I’d be very worried about it getting their QB hurt and them having to trot out the tater tot. You have to also imagine their O-line depth is non existent. Any injuries to that group and they could get exponentially worse. They also won’t be able to count on so many fumbles bouncing their way every time. The good news for them is we may be their toughest opponent in the regular season.After rewatching the game, it was sloppy, but not as bad as we made it out to be immediately afterwards. There were definitely areas that need improvement (tackling, run blocking, clock management/play calling), but there were a lot of positives for the Gators (big play capability, pass rush, resilience, conditioning). It will be a blessing in disguise that we are able to correct these things after a hard fought rivalry game.
Franks may be what he is, but he will improve as the season goes along. It was good to see him throw that bomb to Hammond after the interception. That fearlessness will pay dividends down the line. He will manage the game better as the season progresses.
Miami is much better than many are willing to admit and their young QB surprised me. They will be a decent squad if they build around him and continue to recruit/play well defensively. Diaz will prove to be a solid hire. I won’t be surprised if Miami is still only a 1 loss team in a few months with a favorable schedule.
Thanks for the classy post, DaytonaCane. Good luck the rest of the season.

This!.... and no run game. Don't try to tell me P2 averaged 4.2 yards per carry. He had some long runs in passing situations where it was given by the defense, like on our last drive of the 1st half with 30 seconds. We couldn't run when it mattered and it changes the complexion of the offense. It's unbelievable we still won.Four turnovers and a W. Not sure how many more games like that we will have.

Don’t worry about Virginia. It’s my home state and one thing I know. UVA will never really be a serious football team. Hell, they’ve lost like 15 in a row to Va Tech.GBM, I agree with your assessment and feel this game is going to prove to be the toughest of our season. Other team I am concerned about is VA who won 10 games last year and who have a really good coach. In the old days we had great OL's and heavily recruited in the coal mine area of PA for big, fast players. Hope Diaz can find some at least average OL players/
....and if pigs could fly.We go up 14-3 and there was a good chance the game becomes a rout
