Yet, we had 374 total yards in our offensive "explosion" against Georgia a week ago? I might be mistaken, but I would wager that we also had more possessions against Georgia due to the multiple INTs. Basically, 400 yards or so of offense is exceptional. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs help. As was mentioned in this forum, the big difference between this year and last year is not so much the offense, or the lack of Percy. It is the defensive scoring and field position. I remember a number of turnovers and big punt returns that set our team up inside the opponent's 10 yard line. That as much as anything, led to some of the big scores we put up last year. I think this stat is remarkable: Total Offense 375 yards - vs. Vanderbilt 374 yards - vs. Georgia 376 yards - vs. Miss. St. Could we be any more consistent? -Zeb --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
