I went to the game today here in Gainesville, FL at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium between the UF Gators and the Miami Ohio Redhawks.

RE: [gatortalk] Urban Meyer Spread Covering Record.
He seemed to be much better at covering the spread at Utah. Also, because of UF's rankings and popularity right now, the Gators do not get much value from the bookmakers.

First of all, I didn't get to watch the game live, so when I watched the recording, I already knew the outcome and had read many of your comments. Yes, it was ugly. Probably the very worst season opener I've ever seen. HOWEVER, we need to remember that we (gators) are famous for looking like keystone kops the first two games.

Re: [gatortalk] Observations
Deonte was being lazy. He didn't go get that ball, he waited for it to drop into his hands. If he goes up to get it, the defender would not have been in a position to grab his arm.

Re: [gatortalk] Observations
Yeah, Charlie...I was painfully reminded of the lng Zook years. I watched the UT v UTMartin game last night on PPV (don't ask why) and for a team that is starting 2/3's with little or no experience in college ball AND a new coach...they looked pretty good. My thoughts went to two weeks from now and if we don't correct some of those mistakes..we're in trouble cause believe me, it will be LOUD in Neyland Stadium. And if Brantley/Pouncey can't get it right when there's very little noise (as was the case when Florida Field was half empty by 4th quarter) they'll never be able to pull it off on the 18th.

RE: [gatortalk] Observations
Hi is name is Teryl Austin. Just for the record in my book this performance is directly attributable to, if we are looking for a scapegoat, Urban Meyer. When Addazio wanted to shift Pouncey out to tackle last week, obviously the coaching staff knew Carl Johnson (Johnson played some tackle as a freshman) wasn't going to play, it was Meyer who was quoted as saying he wanted Pouncey to remain at center to insure a quality exchange between the center and the quarterback. Ooops! Now I believe Meyer doesn't want to undermine his senior leader, so Pouncey will probably start at center against USF, although I wouldn't be surprised if they made the switch to Robey during this week. However, I would say that Pouncey only has one or two more botched snaps left in him before he goes back to being a guard. He will not be the center at UT if this continues. The timing of this offense is predicated on a clean snap from center, absent a clean snap, we could have Tebow, Emmitt, Wes Chandler, Percy Harvin with Shanahan calling the plays and we would look just as inept as we did yesterday. So Meyer needs to be credited with this one. I have always said that UF head coaches are required annually during the season to take their stupid pill, I hoping Meyer consumed his for this season on Saturday.

RE: [gatortalk] Observations
All we heard in the off season is how the offensive line is our strength. How Addazzio is moving them around in case someone gets hurt. These guys are saying moving to other positions is no big deal - because they all know (and have trained at) each position. They have at least eight guys ready to go. Nixon's and Patchan's injuries are not serious and only out a couple of days. I think it was Carl Johnson commented opponents better just come and take their whippin, What I am pissed about is - being told one thing - not being able to see for myself (or have trained reporters report on it) - and then seeing something else that is drastically different. What we saw yesterday is NOTHING like what they were telling us to expect. We were sold an NFL caliber OL. What we saw - was not as good as most high schools. Let's contrast that with the DL. We were told all summer that our DL (especially Des) would be bad, we wouldn't be able to pressure the QB, etc. I saw the opposite. Granted it was Miami of Ohio - but for the first outing they looked much better than advertised. I thought the DL played like the OL was advertised and the OL played like the DL was advertised. * Meet http://www.gatorsports.com/article/20100830/ARTICLES/100829506 the Gators: Offensive Line Coach Steve Addazio says center Mike Pouncey may be the best offensive lineman in the country.

Also I would point out that strength of team never should be interpreted to mean that they are any good, it usually just media speak for they are the most experienced unit Randy Platt aka PCGator aka The Armchair Quarterback aka The Other Randy Later Gators!

Yes, Cees, exactly. I'm not worried about the Gators. It was the proverbial first game. We had some things go wrong. We had a lot of things go wrong. So what?

Re: [gatortalk] stats
The stats aren't good but they are also a little misleading as most of our points came off big plays, either on offense or defense, so we only had one substantial drive.

And they told us the Titanic wouldn't sink and that the '69 Jets had no chance at beating the Baltimore Colts. Sorry you are so bitterly disappointed that a bunch people misled you. I doubt there was anyone more disappointed than Addazio or Meyer who I am sure as they ran out the tunnel to start the game believed that the offensive line would block or the center could snap. However, I will be glad to send an email over the Florida SID and request that all further communications regarding team potential be characterized in the worst possible way so that we only have good surprises when the team exceeds expectations. All I can tell you is that just because people think something doesn't make it so.

Re: [gatortalk] Attendance
They said it was a sellout yesterday, so I assume that UF sold all the tix, even though it was obvious that not everyone who purchased a ticket showed up. I don't know if season tickets sold out. We've gotten multiple emails in the last few months offering opportunities to buy additional single game tickets. At one point, only Miami, Kentucky and Appalachian State remained available. But just last week it was announced that tickets were available to all home games except USF. I interpret that as meaning the schools other than USF all returned some of their tickets. Interestingly enough, the USF game could be the hottest home ticket of the year. In addition, single game tickets were still available last week for Tennessee and Vanderbilt games. I think it is likely that the economy is having an impact, both in reducing orders for season tickets and reducing interest by opposing teams' fans in traveling to away games.

Re: [gatortalk] stats
So how fixable is this problem with the center-qb exchange? My fear is that if they couldn't get it right after spring practice, summer practice, etc., how are they going to fix it in one week?

Re: [gatortalk] Observations
Thanks, Randy, for the name of the defensive coordinator...couldn't, for the life of me, remember the name :-) And, I agree, coaching is 99% of all mistakes made on the field. We must remember there were quite a few 18/19-year-old freshmen out there yesterday.

Just for the record in my book this performance is directly attributable to, if we are looking for a scapegoat, Urban Meyer. When Addazio wanted to shift Pouncey out to tackle last week, obviously the coaching staff knew Carl Johnson (Johnson played some tackle as a freshman) wasn't going to play, it was Meyer who was quoted as saying he wanted Pouncey to remain at center to insure a quality exchange between the center and the quarterback. Ooops! Now I believe Meyer doesn't want to undermine his senior leader, so Pouncey will probably start at center against USF, although I wouldn't be surprised if they made the switch to Robey during this week. However, I would say that Pouncey only has one or two more botched snaps left in him before he goes back to being a guard. He will not be the center at UT if this continues. The timing of this offense is predicated on a clean snap from center, absent a clean snap, we could have Tebow, Emmitt, Wes Chandler, Percy Harvin with Shanahan calling the plays and we would look just as inept as we did yesterday. So Meyer needs to be credited with this one. I have always said that UF head coaches are required annually during the season to take their stupid pill, I hoping Meyer consumed his for this season on Saturday.

My thoughts exactly, Helen.

Re: [gatortalk] stats
Well, as someone (Randy, I think) pointed out, it was Meyer that overruled Adazzio's desire to start Robey at center - plus by most insider reports, the snap hadn't been a problem in practice - no one anticipated the problem because it hadn't surfaced until yesterday.

I'm sure I read way back at the beginning of the summer that season tickets had sold out. I can understand how single game tickets could be thought to be sold out until the opposing team returns what they haven't sold, but I don't see how season tickets that were sold could suddenly be unsold. ;-) Here... http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/2010-07-02/sports/os-florida-football-ticket-sales-070120100702_1_football-ticket-sales-bull-gators-gators-fans And... as of 9/1/10, all single game tickets except Miami (OH) and Appalachian State were sold out, according to Gatorzone... http://www.gatorzone.com/tickets/ Cee - Original Message - From: Helen Huntley To: gatortalk@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, September 05, 2010 3:12 PM Subject: Re: [gatortalk] Attendance They said it was a sellout yesterday, so I assume that UF sold all the tix, even though it was obvious that not everyone who purchased a ticket showed up. I don't know if season tickets sold out. We've gotten multiple emails in the last few months offering opportunities to buy additional single game tickets. At one point, only Miami, Kentucky and Appalachian State remained available. But just last week it was announced that tickets were available to all home games except USF. I interpret that as meaning the schools other than USF all returned some of their tickets. Interestingly enough, the USF game could be the hottest home ticket of the year. In addition, single game tickets were still available last week for Tennessee and Vanderbilt games. I think it is likely that the economy is having an impact, both in reducing orders for season tickets and reducing interest by opposing teams' fans in traveling to away games. Plus you have the fact that this is the first year post-Tebow and some people no doubt bought tix just to see him. Plus even-numbered years have a less attractive schedule (in odd-numbered years we get FSU and Tennessee at home).

I think official capacity is only 89,000 or something like that, and I can't remember a game when attendance wasn't over 90,000 so... is every game a sellout? I'm pretty sure the only two games that weren't already sold out during the summer were this one and Appalachian State. I remember reading somewhere that season tickets have sold out every year except the year we went 0-10-1... and that was 1979, right?
