Florida is probably the best team in the nation (for now until Texas plays tonight) in my opinion. They are just taking the Dawgs to the woodshed and not letting up. Curious to see if Florida puts in another TD before the game is over, but I feel Florida should keep their starters out now. Call off the dogs. (See what I did there?)

Also, the Mizzou game confuses me. Been watching it on gamecast.

GaTech beating Florida State btw

Good shit.

[Drex]

Another INT for florida

Baylor is actually the best they've been in a long long time this year, their only wtf loss is @Nebraska, if that can possibly be a wtf loss for Baylor.


I'd be more inclined to agree about Florida if Bama hadn't gotten up 31-0 before coasting.

[Colm]

But 'Bama let up. Florida is going to continue to pound the shit out of Georgia.

[Kyo]

And their going to continue, after the bullshit they pulled last year with the all team gator stomp, not to mention they need to for BCS reasons.

Georgia cant even get a play in lol.

42-3, why percy harvin wa sthat wide open ill never know.

[Drex]

Fish in a barrel

Harvin is my hero, man. He was literally the only person in the entire endzone

[Akiyama]

God ND fucking sucks.

[Plow]

Anyone else notice Georgia has more passing yards than Florida has total offense? >.>

[Akiyama]

Because they've had to throw all day since Knowshon can't move the ball to save his life? Lol.

As far as pick em goes.. FSU inside the 5, fumbles. Oregon sucks shit. ND up 17-7 at one point... about to lose now. Illinois up comfortably... tied. Fuck CFB =(

[Lordender]

Die in a fire. UGA proved they've got it tonight. LSU was favoried by 2.5, in a game where the hat had himself backed into a wall. UGA responded by clearing out quite possibly the most hostile SEC away environment by the midpoint of the 4th...EMPTIED! UGA is never about style points, but they had this won by halftime. Florida was kept close and again needed Tebow (and some LSU mistakes) to save themselves from letting LSU creep back in the 2nd half. UGA played a full 60 minutes and comes out with a dominant win on the road.

Also, If LSU is so lolLSU then Floridas win actually means less than UGA's win. UGA beat LSU at home, Florida had them in the Swamp. Road Wins > Home wins. But thats a moot point, LSU is still a good team for running 2 green quarterbacks in the SEC. They just happened to run into the 2 best teams in the east back to back and got romped rightfully so.

I'm disappointed our rush defense didn't have an answer to Scott, but knowing Richt I think we gameplanned for Holiday. So im not TOO worried. Stafford, Moreno, and Green all had another breakout game. And to me what gives us the edge over Florida next week is Stafford hands down. Game control will be vital with 2 potent running offenses, and Stafford can control flow and time so much better than Tebow can.

Why we wore red away though, fuck if I know. But at this point, I want us to wear it in Jax now.

Though not to take away anything from what was a stunning Florida performance, 2 touchdowns with only having to move the ball 4 yards is silly. Also account for all the players Kentucky is down right now, and Florida is peaking right now too. If this had been Florida against Vandy or South Carolina, id expect it to be much closer.

Alabama finally played a full 60 minutes, and i think they *might* take a few first place voters from Texas this week. It is now obvious Tennessee just doesn't have anything in their tank, though both the LSU and Auburn games are now especially dangerous for Bama. LSU will be out for blood and Auburn relishes playing the spoiler role when they know they're done.

Penn State, im unsure if they just didn't show up or Ohio State has just decided they're done for the year. Both teams just looked meh on offense, which made the defenses look amazing but im not so sure. Penn State obviously better defensively, but Penn State looked to be head and shoulders above even the entirety of the Big 10. I wonder if they've peaked too early now. They should have been able to put more on Ohio State.

USC can suck it. Arizona, we got one gnat off the BCS's back this week (Ohio State), why couldn't you just play offense for a meager 2 minutes and knock another off? You were given short fields how many times?

Texas Tech might be the only team capable of outscoring Texas. Texas and Oklahoma State remain, in my opinion,are the only Big XII teams that even bothers with defense anymore. Though if TT can put 40+ on Texas, I would be curious if Texas could keep up.

As for Bradford v McCoy for heisman, Bradford only going 13/32 is not keeping him at #2 anymore. Next.

The Cocktail Party:

Not as epic as it was proposed to be pre-season, but really only taking a half step down in that both teams have a dumb loss. Obviously, Florida wants revenge for last years embarassment. Both teams are coming in red hot, and it might even be better than last years game. But as I stated before, if both teams bust out with rushing focused games, Staffords clock control is going to be superior even though Florida is capable of putting more points up tit for tat. UGA is superior in the air. Florida has a much more consistant defense coach, Richt is a better tactician than Meyer. Both teams get creative on playcalling when they need it, but sometimes Florida can get carried away unnecessarily.

Georgia is just starting to peak I think, and still has room to improve, the LSU game was a HUGE measuring stick. Florida might have peaked against Kentucky to be honest. 3 blocked kicks isn't something that happens as standard by any measure of a good defense. Hard to call it score wise, but to base it on body of work UGA has lived through more this season than Florida has.

Post is getting hella long, its late, im both baked and blitzed, and Athens is on fire after demolshing LSU in front of a stadium with only red+black left. Florida better be ready.

lol face it, UGA got their fucking ass kicked by florida and UGA beat a bad LSU team who has serious qb and defensive issues.

As stated florida and bama in sec title game.

[Akiyama]

He was right about one thing. "Georgia is just starting to peak." They did peak; last week. Florida took that peak, and shoved it right back up their Bulldog asses, lol.

[Drex]

Did Georgia just take a knee with 6 minutes left? No one said anything about it, did I miss something?

[Mizango]

lolDawgz!


Joe Cox is in, Go DAWGZ!! Big I baby!

Confusing I know.

[Akiyama]

Did Georgia just take a knee with 6 minutes left? No one said anything about it, did I miss something?

Wait. UGA played today?

[Mizango]

Because Miz is a hating honkey.

Pump your brakes kid, that mans a national treasure.

[Mizango]

Wait. UGA played today?

No but the loldawgz did.

Why do you have to be such a hater? I believe in Kyle Orton. =(

I can only give you 50% of my heart.


JOE COX TD!!!! YEAH BABY!

[Byrd]

God ND fucking sucks.

Second team in my Pick Em today that had a TD-plus lead late in the fourth quarter, then managed to lose in OT. >.<

[Plow]

I haven't been watching anymore but is it me or did both teams just put in their backup QB's and drive down for touchdowns lol...

[Akiyama]

"Well Georgia needs all the Florida fans to applaud because all of the Georgia fans are gone."

LOL. Awesome.

And yeah. Clearly those second/third string defenses don't care.

I feel ya Byrd. At least Illinois pulled it out. Whenever I go high on them, they stink it up. When I go low, they pull it out. ._. ND screwed me though. I had them as my 7 before last night, but went with a 10 spot after what Rutgers did with them. God.. Charlie Weis had some horrid play calling though.
