Hail Mary Haiku: Florida Gators Edition

by Joel Hollingsworth on Sep 12, 2011 6:19 AM EDT in Tennessee Volunteer Football

It's time for the Hail Mary Haiku, Florida Gators edition.

Here's the concept for those new to RTT: You're behind by four at midfield. Only one second remains on the clock, and you have to heave the ball into a mass of players in the end zone and hope that by some miracle one of your guys comes down with it. Bonus points for actually observing the traditional 5-7-5 format for haikus, but free form haikus are allowed. This is, after all, a desperation play. Like most desperation plays, it will most often be quite ugly, but that's okay. Heave away.

I’m really looking forward to embracing some of the great traditions at the University of Tennessee, for instance the Vol Walk, running through the T, singing Rocky Top all night long after we beat Florida next year, it will be a blast!

"Next year" isnowhere!!!
