I guess he's banking on being able to show potential recruits the score to show that they are "that close" to UF.
I heard that some of the hotshot recruits that were in attendance at the game thought it was a stupid strategy to not try and give your players a chance to win. I hope that as recruiting heats up, someone will remind them of that! :) zeb wrote: It was clear that UT preferred the certainty of a close loss to the chance of a blowout, even if it had to abandon all hope of win. The presumed strategy would relate to recruiting, and showing how much "closer" UT has come to UF. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
