Bits & Pieces: Florida vs. South Florida

[Bait'n Gator]

We worry about AR being a head case now but what happens when he actually has someone looking over his shoulder? Hell AR and Miller are the only QB's on the roster who had power 5 offers. AR knows he doesn't have to worry about Kitna or the walk on taking his spot. I'm worried about how he handles the pressure once Miller is healthy along with whatever the hell is wrong with him now.

Big dez has improved and is bringing some heat

One of a few, increasing, bright spots.

You're worried once miller is available? Hell, I can't wait.

Watson is awesome and his ass-crack peeking out of his ill-fitting pants just adds to his manimal aura.

You must not have watched the spring game.

This is the brutal truth

Rapid Reaction: No. 18 Florida survives USF upset bid in The Swamp

Florida escapes with a narrow win over USF.

USF was supposed to be a breezy get-right, bounce-back game for Florida with its talent advantage and home-field advantage over a Bulls team that entered the game with noted defensive struggles and a 4-19 record under its current head coach.

From start to finish, the Florida defense was unable to stop the run. For the second game in a row, the Gators saw a double-digit lead evaporate in the second half. In all 3 games so far, the Gators have been held scoreless in the third quarter.

Yall missing the point about Miller...he sucks but if he can suck just a little less and not lose us games, we have a better chance at winning

Notable is the evaporating leads part. We have done this in every game. Saw a 9 point lead turn into a 10 point deficit last week, and a 14 point lead turn into a temporary 4 point deficit last night. Hard to say anything positive about “adjustments” when our Q3’s have looked like this.

Then we all sing about not backing down, led by a guy who OD’d on heroin. Think we’ve lost 9 home games since we started that cool new tradition. But hey, let’s keep it going. I’m psyched.

But was it the thumb that made him look bad or is he just bad?

Yeah, damn near 2 pick 6s will do that. 1 all the way, the other inside the 10.

led by a guy who OD’d on heroin

Or a combination of fentanyl, oxycodone, acetylfentanyl and despropionyl fentanyl (all opioids); temazepam and alprazolam (both sedatives); and citalopram (an antidepressant).

Feel like I read something about Bartles and Jaymes in there as well. I may be thinking of Joplin though.

Agree. The Tom Petty thing is a joke and we can't say "Gator Bait" on campus anymore without being sentenced to life in prison. How is anyone supposed to be intimidated. If only Gators get out alive from a swamp, then technically all else would be "Bait". so therefore, i.e., ergo, e.g., for example, etc., Fookes will not allow the term Swamp.

I hate that “tradition”. Hate the song, hate Tom Petty, hate that everyone thinks it’s cool. It’s lame as fuchs

I liked it for the ONE game, that's it.

I blame corch for starting the terrible AR thread a few hours before the game

I blame my bitmoji :(

I’m quite tired of having to defend the decisions and choices of paid professionals that everyone can see but themselves. That more than anything else has been our theme since 2010. Just make smart decisions and stop insisting you know better. Again, my mantra. Stop paying people generational wealth to be stubborn and fail. People in financial services are accused of playing with other people’s money. How exactly is this any different?

Agree on AR. I’m a world removed from where I was yesterday morning and am about 80% sure he isn’t the QB we all thought he could turn out to be. Last night was inexcusable and outside of a miracle, he’ll be replaced by seasons end.

All of this... and if AR is still playing this same way when Miller is 100% and a viable option to at least try, but he doesn't, then I'm off the Napier bandwagon altogether.
