Florida Gators @ LSU Tigers: Game Thread!
Florida Gators at LSU Tigers, Oct 10, 2009 7:00 PM CDT
This is quickly becoming the season of rain. It seems like every one of our games has been affected by wet conditions, and today is supposed to be no different. If you happened to be present at Noah's Flood, please give us your remembrances, and be sure to let us know how the koalas got back to Australia.

These are two really good teams
Here’s to a good, clean, hard fought game.

i have been stewing all day about this game...
hope we come out aggressive
Geaux Tigers!
Really nervous about this one. My dad is calling me talking about how ‘they’ (not sure who that is exactly) are trying to jinx us by talking about how we never lose Sat nights at home.

yeah, i know the feeling
Last weekend, I rode to the UGA game w/ a guy who must have said the following 15 times.
“UGA has never beaten LSU 4 consecutive times. They have beaten us 3 consecutive times 3 different times, but never 4 in a row. History will win out for us today.”
It wasn’t exactly inspiring, but it bore out.

Gotta score early on this team
UF will adjust very well to what we show them. If we don’t get significant points on the board this half, it will doubly hard to in the second half
I really hope Tebow is okay ...
because I’d hate to see him get a second concussion tonight.
Hah
I love the guy, but it’s interesting that he stirs up lots of emotions either way
We'll have to agree to disagree onDanielson..
but he got our QB situation wrong. We did not try to hide our QB last year. We had a lot of pass attempts. We have been hiding him this year.

OK, so...
Florida can run the ball against us. They marched down the field. We, on the other hand, scraped out a few yards and couldn’t convert on 3rd and 2. Let’s see how we answer. Florida will be satisfied in the 1st quarter feeling us out, getting 3’s here and there, and at some point in the 2nd, they will start turning those 3’s into 7’s UNLESS we adjust. Thing is, they adjust as well as any team in the country.
our offense was a little conservative on that first drive..

Possession 16:40 / 13:10
Pretty even stat-wise. Have a feeling that UF has been playing to see what they can exploit in the 2nd half, tho. Also, they’re running the ball nearly at will, which is always a bad sign.
Dude, relax
We’re one missed holding call from being tied with these guys. We knew this was going to be a tough game. Two or three weeks ago everyone expected us to be blown out of the stadium by halftime. Sit back and enjoy a great game.

Did you know that football is the only sport where you can score and then get the ball back, due to halftime? Other than baseball, where you keep batting after you score and basketball and soccer, where getting the ball after half doesn’t depend on scoring. And hockey and lacrosse and any other sport that has “face off” type things.

There is NO SUCH THING as a sure-thing field goal attempt.

That's why Les should have gone for it on 4th and 1 here and in our previous game..
it’s why the pass to Byrd in 2007 was a good call. It’s why you should usually go for it if you’re at the goal line. It means a LOT.

it's just a drive-killing mistake.. and it happens SO MUCH.. and always in the 3rd quarter..
you can set your watch to it. if Jordan Jefferson is holding the ball too long and getting sacked, it must be the 3rd quarter. This time it bled into the 4th.

But alas, tongiht does not seem to be the night for miracles.
Sad. Just sad.
If we’re crazy lucky go 10-2. Looking at 8-4 realistically, 9-3 if we get a break or two. Auburn, Bama, Ole Miss and Arkansas still to come, kiddies!

Our offense has been atrocious (SP). I haven’t been monitoring the board so I apologize if this is redundant…
Russell shephard hasn’t seen a single snap, I haven’t heard Reuben Ranle’s name a single time either, I can’t even begin to imagine what is going through Les or Crowton’s head…Our play calling has been truly pathetic.
It's been more of an execution thing if you ask me. Also it's not like they're playing the practice squad. Florida's D is FOR REAL.

If tebow and meyer don’t back the hell off i’m callin fraternization. Their relationship is ridiculous
Despite the score, Richard, we were never even close to threatening in this game
And what does #1 mean anymore? It’s a number. Is it possible that maybe, just maybe, we’re not a good team?
We're a good team
not a great one. Holding that Florida offense to 13 points is an accomplishment. Need to clean up on execution on offense and we can be really good. But I think we’re definitely a level below Florida and Bama this year.
CHAD JONES! WOOOO!!!!
It is also possible that some folks want to look for the worst in everything so they will not be disappointed later.
It has been said that most things we worry about never happen and of those that do happen, most we cannot influence. Therefore, it makes more sense to this old man to live in the positive vein and only become disappointed when, and if, the worst actually happens..
Too many dropped passes...
yes, they’ve been high, but at least six, maybe seven dropped throws have killed us tonight…
Remember the heading of the blog? No Moral Victories? That's how i feel about this game.

CHAD JONES! WOOOO!!!!
Thats like saying...
Michael Vick is a special player…He’s average passing, at best, and is over-sized for a quarterback. He can run it, only because of the players he’s surrounded by. He’s an average quarterback, maybe slightly above, placed on a team with exceptional players. His ability to succeed rests solely on those around him, not him.
he will still play in the nfl as a tight end or used as a qb in the wildcat formation.
sam bradford on the other hand will end up like matt linehart. a career 2nd string qb. he can’t take an nfl beating, but tebow could.

Since you have decided to use this football blog to attack God...
… I will be happy to tell you how the koalas and kangaroos ‘made it back to Australia’, assuming they originated there. You see those big islands of New Guinea? And all those thousands of islands that make up Polynesia? Well, you may not believe this, but 4,000 years ago, they acutally constituted a LAND BRIDGE between the continents of Asia and Australia. There has been a lot of earthquakes since then, many are recorded in ancient Chinese scrolls and even among the legends of the Aborigines of Australia. This area is stll, if you’ve read the news lately, being rocked on an almost daily basis.
Likewise, it is generally accepted even among your atheist friends, that Asia and N. America were also long ago connected by a land bridge across what is now the Bering Strait.
What you may find hard to believe, but is also true, is that nearly every civilization that existed after that time, those who had no known contact whatsoever, all have a written record or oral legend of a worldwide flood.
Now that I have taken the time to explain this to you, perhaps you could tell me why you hate God and why you have decided to use a football blog to vent your hatred and promote your athiestic agenda?
