I’m exhausted watching that. It’s time for a week off and heal up more. Now it’s time to turn to CBS and watch the Dawgs against the Tigers. BTW, UTn beat Auburn.
I'm happy that Tenn beat Auburn. Reinforces some of our recruiting against them.

Lol, got too much to do. Getting married in a week. These noon starts stretch the limits of fandom.

You need to lighten up Francis. You’re the one going overboard. You make a statement that we’re back, I’m checking your over exuberance with reality. Go sober up.

Come on, man. Let’s not check our exuberance. Let’s go crazy. We’re making another beer run and watching the game all over again.

The reality has not changed. We’ve been told this is our worst roster in 40 years. We didn’t get any new players. So here we are....6-1. That is reason enough to go crazy with excitement.

Has anyone pointed out that we are now officially bowl eligible?

Honestly no. Because as much as that looked like a long shot in week 2, it really shouldn’t have ever been our mindset in the first place. We’ve been beaten down with the past two regimes into thinking that’s a real goal. I bet Mullen would scoff at someone if they told him, and rightly so. Those days are over.

Kill two birds with one stone? They have TVs at most gyms.
I had to have them turn off the Tennessee game and flip to ESPN when I got here. Clueless chick at the front desk. Who the eff cares about Tennessee?

I know we have weaknesses. Every team not named Bama does. The point was about living in the moment. We've had precious few opps over the past decade.

As for being back, it's undeniable at this point.

We all know that this team is still a work in progress, and will be for a while to come. But the key words here are "progress" and "team." It's been so long since we've seen either one that I for one feel like being pretty damn exuberant myself. Excuse the hell out of me.

In spite of some fan’s expectations, this is still a team that won all of 4 fuking games last year. I’ll celebrate the progress rather than let my fanaticism get in the way

This team reminds me the ‘94 basketball team whose slogan was “Find a Way.” This team each week finds a way to come away with a win. Go Gators!

Well, the game started great by forcing a 3 & out followed by a solid drive until the INT. Thought it would be a relaxing game and then it got ugly for multiple reasons. Then, the Gators regained composure and did a great job working their way back and controlling the game late.

This was a gut check after coming out a bit flat after last week’s big win. Lots of work left to do, but for now... Great job, Gators!!!



Meanwhile, big red just lost to Northwestern and frost is still winless.
