Wow, UF #5 eh?

Matt Wilson · October 12th, 2008, 02:01 PM

Dammit, if we had gone for 2 after that last touchdown we could have nabbed #4...

Fritz · October 12th, 2008, 04:27 PM

#5 and #7 ain't bad. Let's hope this weekend's Gator team was the team we see for the rest of the season.

Ramp · October 12th, 2008, 04:54 PM

still no love for Tulsa

bobbob1313 · October 12th, 2008, 05:08 PM

FIU can take first place in the conference this week against Troy. What a turnaround already from last year. This team looks great and I could see us going 4-2 against our remaining Sun Belt opponents.

BeefWillingham · October 12th, 2008, 05:09 PM

FSU on Thursday night

Hugg · October 12th, 2008, 05:31 PM

Ohio State is ranked too high.

TarHeel50 · October 12th, 2008, 08:55 PM

This week I am going to:

FSU at NC State Thursday night
Miami at Puke Saturday afternoon

JJ · October 12th, 2008, 09:01 PM

Why does a Miami and Chapel College fan go to a FSU/NC State game? Are you dating someone that goes to State?

I'll be there on Saturday!

FishFanInPA · October 12th, 2008, 09:15 PM

Miami -5.5 @ Duke

BeefWillingham · October 12th, 2008, 09:17 PM

I think the SEC isnt good

Matt Wilson · October 12th, 2008, 09:22 PM

Well that's just silly.

BeefWillingham · October 12th, 2008, 09:26 PM

I'll give you Florida and Alabama (I guess)

Maybe Georgia

LSU, Vandy, South Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Auburn, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Miss St

JJ · October 12th, 2008, 09:31 PM

Yeah the only two teams I think are elite from the SEC are Alabama, Florida and Georgia.

Matt Wilson · October 12th, 2008, 09:32 PM

I'd say Florida, Bama, Georgia, Auburn, and LSU are all legit top 25 teams. The rest of the scrap heap is no worse than middle of the road, which is more than you can say for a lot of conferences.

Someone told me you know they booed Santa, right? I said there were 30,000 people there and he brought no gifts, what were they supposed to do" -- Elton Brand. "It speaks to everything we are trying to do here," he said. "What I mean by that is, it's easy to punt the ball. Anybody can punt the ball. It's conventional wisdom. But you know what? We are trying to change 30 years of this crap, and I want to show them that we are going to go for it and make it right here. There is going to be a day, I pray it's sooner rather than later, that we are going to make that yard." -- Al Golden on why he went for it on 4th and 1.
