Hyperbole? Maybe? All I know is watching that felt like I was watching the swamp of old. They just dominated a #7 team that the media adored, and made the announcers hate them all the way through the game. And..say what you will about Mullen. He is a Gator, and wants to be a Gator. He was the best hire we could have made, and its not close.

Its the biggest in terms of keeping this ship moving forward. That's what matters most.

Most people, me included, didn't think it would happen.

The main constant this year to last is our ability to persevere and overcome the odds again and again. It's a perfectly imperfect mosaic. I love it.

Yes this or really good bowl win last year over Michigan. But I can see how you chose this because this is in the SEC against a quality SEC West team that was undefeated coming into today.

The key for Mullen will be to see in the next year or two if he can get a quarterback who can throw 30-plus touchdowns and only throw about 10 interceptions and run a little bit when needed.

The staff is doing a good job. They all want to be here and they are coaching like it.

Theres no excuses for this game though. Michigan fans will tout their missing players. I think that game meant more to UF than Mich

Feels so different from the fool’s gold of the ole miss game in 2015. The program feels so much more solid - to go with a stirring win.

It was huge. Even program defining. Let's hope we look back a year or two from now and point to this weekend as the beginning of the snowball that turned into an avalanche!

Meatchkin or Clowntown last year.

Barn? Or LSU? or Ugly this year? Depends.

Punking Ugly will change the trajectory of both programs.

Last year's LSU and Michigan wins were pretty big too, but given this is year 2 and we are starting to re-enter the national stage, I think you are correct. :)

I went in with low expectations but high hopes. Most I’ve been into a game in years. I’m still in shock over what I saw our team do defensively. What a game!

Other than some seriously questionable play calls and all the turn-overs, we dominated the game. If we hadn't had those turn-overs, it would've been a worse blowout than what they gave to MSU last week.

Yeah, but I gotta say they forced those turnovers. Most of theirs were given to us. 3 terrible passes and a muffed punt that bounced 10 yards before the dumbass imitated Bill Buckner! :lol:
