A bed sheet and a door knob will do it in case the hardware store is closed.
Florida beat Miami. Are we allowed to enjoy it?

Lots of bad and some good. A win is a win, so while I wasn’t happy with much of what I saw, it sure beats the hell out of losing. Probably the brightest spot was the resiliency to keep fighting no matter what happened. That’s something we didn’t see under the previous regime.
I laughed loud and hard when Franks threw the late interception. Comical that we called a pass play and even more so that he hit the DB right in the numbers. Let’s hope we see major improvement between now and our next game. If we do, we could have another 10 win season and continue to build momentum within the program. If not, it’s gonna be a long year.
Either way...f*ck da u and all they stand for!

We should have blown Miami out. Outside of the 2 PI calls, everything seemed to go against us. I kept thinking, how in the hell does the ball keep bouncing their way? I don't recall many games going like that.
But to answer the question... I very much enjoyed this game. Only the 2nd time that I can remember beating Miami(I was born in '85). I'm convinced that whatever success we achieve this year, won't happen with Franks under center. He just Haven't improved. Or at least it wasn't apparent in game 1.

Yes. Strange how we seemed to keep causing fumbles and don't pick them up.
Even on our own fumbles, it would always miraculously end up in their hands.

Why should we have blown them out? We didn’t take care of the football, couldn’t generate any semblance of a run game and gave them countless opportunities with stupid penalties. We’re fortunate they missed that chip shot field goal or we’re 0-1 right now.

It's really hard to enjoy a win that you deserve to lose. This game reminded me of the 2016 ut game with all of the missed tackles. And let's stop pretending that Miami is now an ACC contender. You have to suck something awful to lose a game against a team that commits 4 turnovers, can't tackle, and commits the dumbest penalties at the worst times.
I don't think all hope is lost. I still think we win 10 this season. I'm just upset that this team completely embarrassed themselves in the premier game of college football. The entire nation was watching... and laughing at us.

Here’s my take. Chimp and Butters would’ve lost this game, plain and simple. Chimp would’ve lost in a squeaker. Butters would’ve been run out of the stadium. We already have evidence of Chimp against Miami. Miami have always given us fits in the past. They beat a Spurrier team in the Sugar, beat the Zooker twice, Urban beat em and don’t remember that much of a dominating performance, and the Chimp losing. I’ve only been watching Gator football since 1995-6. I have only enjoyed two wins over these clowns. Goddamn right, I’m going to enjoy it even if we did look like the Keystone cops

If we don't fumble like tards to start the game, it's likely 21-3 and the rout is on.

At least Franks was a strong, calming presence on the sideline. Didn't act like an idiot at all. That's the kind of leader these players need out there.
They had the turnover chain, and we had Franks. Not sure which is worse.

Yeah and IF we’re playing a decent team WE get blown out with all those self inflicted wounds. Works both ways, Ox. The good news is, like Mullen said, that stuff CAN be corrected. Will it? Time will tell.

I’m of the mindset that last night was the best thing that could have happened to the team. Make every mistake possible to lose the game yet still miraculously win. Those mistakes will foster growth with this team thankfully without having to take a loss to learn those lessons!

Why would that much stuff need fixing at this point? Why cant we tackle? What are we doing in practice?

Not sure what we’re doing in practice. One thing I’m fairly certain of is that we aren’t practicing fumble recovery.

I'm of the mindset that it's never good to embarrass yourself in front of the entire nation, and that these guys should've already learned all of those valuable lessons last year.

The chain is definitely worse. Franks is just an immature kid. The turnover chain is a stupid thing that is encouraged by a coaching staff that are supposedly grown men.

Don’t forget the TD rings. What an embarrassment to college football. Unfortunately, kids nowadays gravitate to stupid gimmicks like that.

NV was REALLY drunk last night.
Sort of reminded me the way he was after the Kentucky game last year. LOL
