I think you'd have to allow for the Spurrier factor in the first half. He said he would handle the play calling for this game. That's what made me so nervous before kickoff.
But, our defense certainly rose to the occasion in the 4th quarter.

Also, we had a hard time getting Garcia on the ground, especially in the first half. JAFO Randy Platt aka "PCGator" aka "The Armchair Quarterback" aka "The Other Randy" Later Gators!

I hope this doesn't give Alabama any clues as to how to scheme against us. I hope we can come up with some defensive looks that Alabama will not have seen from us. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

I just wish people would stop talking about the Gators being 19 - 0, now 20 - 0. This team is 10 - 0. Those other wins belong to the 2008 team. I want our guys to play loose, and have fun, not like they are trying to preserve or maintain something, or be perfect, or play up to the expectations of others. A few weeks ago, although I certainly didn't want us to lose a game, I was thinking that dropping one might actually be liberating for the team, and give them some motivation (as did the loss to 'Ole Miss last year). It could also have helped with the fans' expectations, and we might not have been so critical after close wins. Anyway, it's way too late for that now. We have three games in front of us, and if we win out, we are the SEC Champions and are playing for the National Championship. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

Tennessee, LSU and Miss St... dont forget we played first... so we could have easily exposed to Bama how to handle them.

Looking at "big play" production on offense, it would appear that Alabama did better tonight versus Mississippi State than we did against them. Or maybe I am justed spooked by my fears of Julio Jones and Mark Ingraham running through our secondary. Go Gators!!!! Ken B.

We score more, get more total yards and give up less yards and points than them. Yet, they have the more complete team? I know, we've got to get past FIU and the semis first. Heh heh heh. So, anyway, about Alabama...
