    3 In A Row!

    They finished strong with two 9.95's on bars. It looked like Utah had the momentum, and the Gators took it back.

    UF pilfers FAU to hire Kerry Dixon II as WR coach

    Sometimes I feel like the Harry Potter curse against the "Defense against the Dark Arts teacher" transferred to our wide receiver coach. Maybe Billy Gonzales stopped by the bayou to put a hex on us on the way to Baton Rouge?

    First game you ever attended in The Swamp?

    My first game at Florida Field was sometime in October '77. We had a lot of away games to start the year, then my sport had some conflicts so I don't know if it was Pittsburg or Tennesssee. But I vaguely remember a tie game, so probably Pittsburg. Like the past few years, utterly forgettable...

    First game you ever attended in The Swamp?

    It's a sliding scale. If you're young enough, it's someone about 5 years (maybe 10) ahead of you in school. At my age, it's... well darn, what were we talking about again?.

    We waited 9 months for this? Game CANCELLED

    Great post. Wet is one thing, standing water is quite another (as I found out in a soccer game once). Plus, playing on it would have torn up the field to classic Citrus Bowl levels that would not have recovered for the next two games.

    ***OFFICIAL GAME THREAD: Florida vs Idaho***

    Still on the South endzone ramp looking at lightning bolts over Century Tower. Less rain though. Can't get on a weather site but Gatorchatter comes right up.

    Help....where is my Orange and Brew?

    I'll second that on the Schlitz dark. I think that was the first dark beer I'd ever seen much less tasted.

    Help....where is my Orange and Brew?

    This is from a week or so ago. It's not a hole in the ground anymore, but they haven't finished the bare steel either. No Orange and Brew this season.

    Open Practice #2 - Live Updates

    I'm pretty sure I saw Lane in a running back drill. He came up short on a ~20yd out that everyone else caught. He may have been nursing a slight pull, although I didn't notice any limp.

    Agreed. It was "who is 97 that keeps hitting the scissors lift?"

    For your game parking/tailgating information

    I've been a longtime lurker/rare poster on the former site. Similarly, I've lurked on this site since about day 2. (Found by a hint in GC and then looked for "Ox" "podcast"). I signed up today as I finally had something to say. I must have been member number 298? I've always loved watching...

    For your game parking/tailgating information

    Just in case we are good enough to sell out a few times this year I thought I'd pass the following along. A couple items came up in the local news that impact game day parking and some tailgating. The first one is that the University Corners development, although approved, is still delayed. I...
