I pray your sig is prophetic
"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."

I fear that this is where our lack of depth shows up
It could still be a blowout. But even if it is, the first half shows that we’ll be fine in a year or two.

Although fortunately
the TOP has been relatively even. So exhaustion shouldn’t be as big of a problem as it otherwise could be.

That's not the worst spot for an interception ever
Like a bad punt. Just a great defensive play. Sucks that Cromp didn’t get a little more air under it. We’d be sitting pretty.

Absolutely right
But no one can really blame him, no matter how much of a Crompton fan they might be
Yeah
And I think he’s playing it the only way he can. Trying to keep his confidence up, but walking the line between that and being too risky, which he learned last week. Guessing.

Guys, this is how good we can play
when our QB doesn’t give the game away
Its clear that this year we have to scheme around our own QB
It is what is is. But I like this staff. I feel confident for the future.
OOOOhhhh
And a touchback!

"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."
First down!

If they get it, should they go for the field goal quickly and hope for the onsides?
or risk the time for the TD, then the onsides?
still harping on the no-call, hahah
not your place, announcers
Well
Did we expect Crompton to do anything else? =\
STILL!! I do LOVE the call. Florida was supposed to stomp our faces.

That's an INT we can live with. That's where you force it.

not a bad play call though....
with such little time left….
but crompton needs to throw that to the outside shoulder
i agree
I am glad to see our guys ready to play in big games, come out focused, and he’s upgrading the talent. plus no tebow td pass
happiest ever after a loss?

I want to post on Doyl's Gator CBS article from earlier this week
Something about Meyer teaching “Lame” a lesson
feel pretty good
but cant help but wonder what if we get that td instead of the fg, and stop tebow on that 3rd down play

Yeah
You know what I hadn’t thought about until now? We’re back where we usually are, hoping FL will lose and us win out to take the East. Last week, that statement would have been ridiculous. How’s it sound tonight?
It might sound silly Monday again, but tonight, I like it.

1 of 3 SEC QBs
to go undefeated against the Vols 4 times. That’s impressive
He don't get credit for the 1st one.
Leak was the starter. He was the 4th and 1 bumrusher.

I'd really like him if he was not a Gator.
But he made that choice. He turned his back on our friendship.

he;s sitting at 1-2 and getting heat. How much love would Aubrn have for mild mannered Gene CHizzik if hes sitting at 1-2 now?
I shouldn't be
but I’m not furious after this loss
For those left,
does Fulmer walk off into obscurity now?
no
we could still go 5-7 this year…we need to win seven or so to prove that there’s a tangible difference beyond a shadow of a doubt
