What a week for Tennessee! Volunteers coach Lane Kiffin coached the team in the ugly orange uniforms to yet another moral victory, beating Alabama 10-12 when the Tide’s gargantuan defensive tackle Terrence Cody (6-foot-5, 354 pounds) busted through for his second blocked kick of the game on a potential game-winning field goal by Tennessee kicker Daniel Lincoln. Who needs actual wins when you can get moral victories over the top two BCS teams? If there is one thing Kiffin has proved at Tennessee, it’s that nepotism can work. The Vols have played some very good teams close this year. The biggest reason? He was smart (or related) enough to get his father Monte Kiffin to join his staff. The elder Kiffin, the defensive mastermind behind the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ famed Cover 2 defense, has the Volunteers playing some stifling D this year. After the loss to Alabama, Lane Kiffin shockingly opened his mouth in regard to perceived bias by SEC officials, who failed to penalize Cody for removing his helmet after the final blocked kick ended the game. He also pointed out that the officiating crew called eight penalties for a total of 68 yards on Tennessee, while Alabama was flagged just once for 10 yards. SEC commissioner Mike Slive responded by reprimanding the first-year Volunteers coach, and warning him of a possible suspension if he is disciplined again this year. So in honor of Kiffin’s latest reprimand, I’m using a picture of Lane Kiffin doing what he does best: talking. This week’s Caption Planet selection has the Vols coach giving some important advice to Tennessee quarterback Jonathan Crompton on the sideline. Man, I heard the Big Ten was supposed to be a cakewalk. On to this week’s winners.

Yes, Dustin Doe did a bad thing. But, I have to wonder why all this anger about it. Are we really as bad as Miami because Doe took two steps in a showboating style? Have we really become the manifestation of evil because of it? Where was all this anger last season when Brandon Spikes kicked the ball into the stands? Or, where was it a couple of years ago when Travis McGriff threw the ball in the stands. Doe made a boo boo. So, let's get over it. I would remind everyone that was the first defensive touchdown of the year. Leon, you were there, didn't you get sick of the cowbells? Well, the whole team was. Urban Meyer even mentioned it later in some post-game interview. Have we forgotten this was the first time the Gators have won in Starkeville since 1985? Wasn't that the Charlie Pell era? Randy, I'm not just trying to pick on you here, but your email seemed like a good place to bring it up. No, we don't need to have any repeats of it. But, yes, Urban Meyer will deal with it.

I am grateful to the football gods for allowing the Gators this good fortune. I believe Doe's antics are indeed reminders of SCUM teams of the past and it makes my skin crawl to see one of my beloved Gators behave in this manner. Shane is not the only member of the old school philosophy, unfortunately I, too, am an analog man living a digital world when it comes to the proper decorum on a football field. I am also reminded that you can't always get what you want. And while I certainly think that Doe should and will be punished for his behavior, I truly believe that my opinion would not be greeted with universal acceptance anymore than anyone else's would.

What a week for Tennessee! Volunteers coach Lane Kiffin coached the team in the ugly orange uniforms to yet another moral victory, beating Alabama 10-12 when the Tide’s gargantuan defensive tackle Terrence Cody (6-foot-5, 354 pounds) busted through for his second blocked kick of the game on a potential game-winning field goal by Tennessee kicker Daniel Lincoln. Who needs actual wins when you can get moral victories over the top two BCS teams? If there is one thing Kiffin has proved at Tennessee, it’s that nepotism can work. The Vols have played some very good teams close this year. The biggest reason? He was smart (or related) enough to get his father Monte Kiffin to join his staff. The elder Kiffin, the defensive mastermind behind the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ famed Cover 2 defense, has the Volunteers playing some stifling D this year. After the loss to Alabama, Lane Kiffin shockingly opened his mouth in regard to perceived bias by SEC officials, who failed to penalize Cody for removing his helmet after the final blocked kick ended the game. He also pointed out that the officiating crew called eight penalties for a total of 68 yards on Tennessee, while Alabama was flagged just once for 10 yards. SEC commissioner Mike Slive responded by reprimanding the first-year Volunteers coach, and warning him of a possible suspension if he is disciplined again this year. So in honor of Kiffin’s latest reprimand, I’m using a picture of Lane Kiffin doing what he does best: talking. This week’s Caption Planet selection has the Vols coach giving some important advice to Tennessee quarterback Jonathan Crompton on the sideline.

The elder Kiffin, the defensive mastermind behind the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ famed Cover 2 defense, has the Volunteers playing some stifling D this year. After the loss to Alabama, Lane Kiffin shockingly opened his mouth in regard to perceived bias by SEC officials, who failed to penalize Cody for removing his helmet after the final blocked kick ended the game. He also pointed out that the officiating crew called eight penalties for a total of 68 yards on Tennessee, while Alabama was flagged just once for 10 yards. SEC commissioner Mike Slive responded by reprimanding the first-year Volunteers coach, and warning him of a possible suspension if he is disciplined again this year. So in honor of Kiffin’s latest reprimand, I’m using a picture of Lane Kiffin doing what he does best: talking. This week’s Caption Planet selection has the Vols coach giving some important advice to Tennessee quarterback Jonathan Crompton on the sideline. Man, I heard the Big Ten was supposed to be a cakewalk. On to this week’s winners.

[gatortalk] Re: FW: [gatornews] [SUN]: Tebow may be trying too hard [Dooley]
Okay, I am using this response to cover several topics concerning Tebow related comments. I agree that Tebow has not played the same since the UK game and the concussion. I do not believe that the problem per se is the concussion or any lasting effects there from. I do believe Tebow is pressing way to hard and that his play has suffered because of it. I believe Tebow is pressing because he wants to prove he is the same kind player now that he was before his concussion or he is pressing because he really wants that perfect season. I believe that Meyer's recent comments about the team needing to be looser and having more fun when they play are directed specifically at Tebow. I believe Tebow just needs to let the game to come to him. I don't think Addazio's play calling in the red zone has been horrible, but the fact that other teams have stacked the interior defense to stop the Tebow runs and poor execution has made the red zone offense look worse than it really is. Case in point, Tebow's interception that was returned 102 yards for a TD, if you look at the replay you will see a Gator receiver, single digit maybe Thompson, Rainey, or Demps, 2 yards deep in the end zone uncovered running step for step with Tebow as he rolls to his left. Tim never sees him or ignores him, I don't know which. Case in point #2, Arkansas game Tebow's fumble in the red zone occurs on a botch handoff to James on the jet sweep. TT is our best short yard runner, so I don't have much of a problem running him multiple times, but teams are beginning to figure that out, so when they do, we have to call something else, audible perhaps, but regardless we have to execute and that is not Addazio's play calling, it might be his coaching of the offensive line but it isn't his play calling. Now I don't think there really is in-fighting amongst the offensive players, frustration perhaps, certainly on Denote Thompson's part, and certainly on Tebow's part with respect to Addazio but again it may be just much ado about nothing if the ship gets righted. The defense, IMMHO, could care less what's going on on the offensive side of the ball, because they figure they can hold everybody scoreless.

The University of Florida Student Government announced Wednesday that the “Okefenokee Oar” would be presented to the game’s winner starting this year, in the hopes of establishing an annual tradition. “It’s just a way to increase the friendly competition in the game,” said Eric Conrad, student government spokesman. Presenting such a trophy follows in the tradition of other rivarly games. The winner of Michigan-Minnesota gets the Little Brown Jug, the winner of Minnesota-Wisconsin gets Paul Bunyan’s Axe and other teams have also exchanged quirky items in longstanding rivalries. The oar, which will be presented to the student government president of the winning university, is carved from a 1,000-year-old cypress tree cut from the Okefenokee Swamp, according to student government. The swamp straddles the Florida-Georgia border. The oar is “supposed to symbolize the area that has always been fought over by the states,” Conrad said. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

But now he's finally getting mad props -- assuming people still give mad props -- thanks to the rapper Lil Waynehttp://www.fanhouse.com/tag/Lil+Wayne/. In Lil's newest track, Banned From TVhttp://en.musicplayon.com/play?v=101910Lil_Wayne___Banned_From_Tv__No_Ceilings_Album, the Southern rapper includes this line, Smoke weed, talk s--- like Lane Kiffin. Now Lane Kiffin has acknowledged the endorsement via Twitter, tweeting today, looking forward to another great practice today and a huge game Saturday ... also a huge shout-out to Lil Wayne for boosting our street cred! Yep, two of the South's top gangsters are already in fine form. As for fans? Well, UT fans, are already talking about, wait for it, the recruiting benefits of Lil Wayne's lyrical endorsement. Wrote a reader, Alan, this morning in an e-mail to me, Should help with recruiting. Especially in South Florida, Louisiana, Atlanta and Memphis. But why stop with recruiting help? Now that he's been bound and gagged by the SEC, Lane Kiffin should hop on the gangster train and play this for all it's worth. Lil Wayne's past is dotted with controversy, including being arrested three times for drug-related issues, Wayne now faces sentencing in February on a weapons charge for which he has already plead guiltyhttp://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Music/10/22/new.york.lil.wayne/index.html. He's expected to serve a year in prison. Notwithstanding his criminal history, he's also an acknowledged sports fan, having memorably appeared on ESPN's Around the Horn earlier this year and debated sports journalists on issues of the day.

Anger? What anger? I was NEVER angry. I'm was just concerned that his showboating ALMOST cost us the TD. Kicking or throwing the ball in the stands certainly deserves a penalty, but they wouldn't call a TD back for it. As far as getting over it, I'm already past it. Meyer is the coach and he knows best.

What a week for Tennessee! Volunteers coach Lane Kiffin coached the team in the ugly orange uniforms to yet another moral victory, beating Alabama 10-12 when the Tide's gargantuan defensive tackle Terrence Cody (6-foot-5, 354 pounds) busted through for his second blocked kick of the game on a potential game-winning field goal by Tennessee kicker Daniel Lincoln. Who needs actual wins when you can get moral victories over the top two BCS teams? If there is one thing Kiffin has proved at Tennessee, it's that nepotism can work. The Vols have played some very good teams close this year. The biggest reason? He was smart (or related) enough to get his father Monte Kiffin to join his staff. The elder Kiffin, the defensive mastermind behind the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' famed Cover 2 defense, has the Volunteers playing some stifling D this year. After the loss to Alabama, Lane Kiffin shockingly opened his mouth in regard to perceived bias by SEC officials, who failed to penalize Cody for removing his helmet after the final blocked kick ended the game. He also pointed out that the officiating crew called eight penalties for a total of 68 yards on Tennessee, while Alabama was flagged just once for 10 yards. SEC commissioner Mike Slive responded by reprimanding the first-year Volunteers coach, and warning him of a possible suspension if he is disciplined again this year. So in honor of Kiffin's latest reprimand, I'm using a picture of Lane Kiffin doing what he does best: talking. This week's Caption Planet selection has the Vols coach giving some important advice to Tennessee quarterback Jonathan Crompton on the sideline. Man, I heard the Big Ten was supposed to be a cakewalk. On to this week's winners.

The funniest thing about this, Helen, is seeing that you were the one to report it to Gatortalk. ;-) It's interesting to see that Kiffin and his toothless followers think having Lil Wayne mention Kiffin is a good thing. Or that saying someone talks sh*t is a compliment. Lil Wayne's from the ATL, right?

But now he's finally getting mad props -- assuming people still give mad props -- thanks to the rapper Lil Wayne. In Lil's newest track, Banned From TV, the Southern rapper includes this line, Smoke weed, talk s--- like Lane Kiffin. Now Lane Kiffin has acknowledged the endorsement via Twitter, tweeting today, looking forward to another great practice today and a huge game Saturday ... also a huge shout-out to Lil Wayne for boosting our street cred! Yep, two of the South's top gangsters are already in fine form. As for fans? Well, UT fans, are already talking about, wait for it, the recruiting benefits of Lil Wayne's lyrical endorsement. Wrote a reader, Alan, this morning in an e-mail to me, Should help with recruiting. Especially in South Florida, Louisiana, Atlanta and Memphis. But why stop with recruiting help? Now that he's been bound and gagged by the SEC, Lane Kiffin should hop on the gangster train and play this for all it's worth. Lil Wayne's past is dotted with controversy, including being arrested three times for drug-related issues, Wayne now faces sentencing in February on a weapons charge for which he has already plead guilty. He's expected to serve a year in prison. Notwithstanding his criminal history, he's also an acknowledged sports fan, having memorably appeared on ESPN's Around the Horn earlier this year and debated sports journalists on issues of the day. In a sad day for sports journalists everywhere, Wayne triumphed. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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 -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---
