I figured I'd bring this up in advance of the zoo this place is going to be this weekend. Sasquatch made a comment in the chatterbox recently in which he was correct. He said that this game has been penciled in as a loss for well over a year now by just about every Gator fan. Yet, if/when we lose, there's going to be the usual post-loss meltdowns, screaming for firings, burning couches, etc.
So is it going to depend on HOW we lose? Let's say it's a tight game and we lose by a last-minute field goal. As a Gator fan, how would you feel about that? Would you take it as a positive sign we're headed in the right direction? Or is a loss a loss? How do we view moral victories these days? If you already feel now that we're going to lose, is it going to alter your usual post-loss attitude?
Let's face it, there's no shame in losing at Alabama, because pretty much everyone does. Outside of a win, what would satisfy you, if anything?
Discuss.
P.S. - Let's discuss this like adults, and try to avoid poo-slinging at each other.
