I think what he was originally getting at is that Mac will help TH improve, noting that KY held Grier to 14 points and Grier continued to improve. The implication that seemed obvious was that Mac will do the same with TH.

leave me alone Ox Im on a roll. Btw I am venting in return. The reason it exists is for you to get that Vette museum and for us to SUPPORT the GATORS not tear them down, especially while they are now R E L E V A N T again and showing great skill character and team work. You know my MO ,,,,,,if you trash my team/players I am trashing you. Go back to bed, Only old people wake up early on the wkend. ;)

Mean things get said after losses on sports message boards. On every single one on the internet, in every sport. It's okay, people usually feel a lot better in a day or two.stephenPE;n299315 said:

Yes, and you should be ashamed.GatorStud;n299322 said:
I'm thrilled with the direction of the program. Absolutely thrilled. A team in disarray would have gotten completely killed last night, like we did against Alabama last year. We have so many things working against us and still had a chance at victory in Death Valley at night. This team is going to be very, very good in the coming years, and I think the rest of the SEC (and perhaps the nation) knows it.

All I can say is that I am enjoying watching our team play again. Hate to lose; but the way this team is coached there is confidence we have a chance to win whenever we step on the field. That feeling has not been around for a while. Nobody on this board thought this was a W at the start of the season. I am also looking forward to seeing how Coach Mac handles his first loss with the team.

We are good enough right now where we could beat any team in the country on a given night in the Swamp. Any team. There will never be enough separation between the best team in the country and the other top teams in any given year for the number one team to be guaranteed a victory. It is hard for any team these days to go undefeated in a single season.
In the mid 1950s Oklahoma went on a 47 game winning streak that lasted from 1953 until towards the end of 1957 when Notre Dame beat them 7 - 0. Oklahoma played in the Big Eight Conference which was then known as Oklahoma and the Seven Sisters because of the weak competition. But still no team in this day and age can win 47 games in a row. No way that is going to happen for an SEC team.
Great game by the Gators in Baton Rouge on a Saturday night. Not a moral victory. Gators don't play for moral victories. It was a loss to a good team and we were in it right to the end. No way to be ashamed. Be proud you're a Gator cause Florida's gonna rise again.

All I can say is this board has turned on its damn head when Law is the one talking people down from the ledge.

You could have also mentioned the role of the Florida Brigade in their victories at Antietam, Cold Harbor, and when they ran those damned yankees all the way to Georgia at the Battle of Olustee.Okeechobee Joe;n299340 said:

I imagine Mac standing on the sidelines last night and wondering how it might be in the same situation a year or two from now, after he's added a few solid recruiting classes. The players love this guy. I feel good about the future.

Aww man, relax. My team lost too. It wasn't a post born of ridicule or criticism and it wasn't personal, just some sarcasm. I flipping hate losing games that we should win and moral victories are for UT. Yes, my post count is low but I've been lurking for years, so no trolling here, just pissed at losing.
(Is this where we go head to head and compare what Level Gator Fan we are?)

It was really frustrating watching the 1st half. We were really good in the 2nd half; sans that fake FG for a TD.
Our O line was pretty bad in this game but I though Treon was really good. I think the moment overtook him a bit toward the end and led to those balls being short armed. I don't think there's that big of a difference between the he and Will in moving our offense. BUT, Will does have ice water in his veins and locks in on critical drives.

To me this is the biggest difference between the two QBs. Treon is crazy athletic and makes insane heroic plays here and there but seems to fold when the pressure is on to score. The only exception to this I've seen is last year's game against UT. Grier on the other hand, is a bit off and on throughout the game, but when the pressure is on and we need him to win the game for us, the light turns on for him and he thrives.
late edit: Folds is probably a harsh way to put it with Treon. It's more like the moment just gets too big for him and his accuracy goes to crap.
