  1. It was a busy day today, but Fuck Baylor. Frogs probably staying at five wins, but winning both of the named rivalries takes a little bit of the sting out of this garbage season .

  2. Florida versus Missouri by all rights should be an embarrassing defeat, but I’m still holding out hope for a mid-game NCAA death penalty for Mizzou.

Feeling rather relieved Mizzou only got three on that opening drive.

Nice answer from Florida. Stick it to those bullies from Missouri! LOL.

Fartenshit. Schrader is gonna be a problem.

Relief that the Gators got that call to force the FG, but while close, this is starting to get the feel of boiling a frog. Gators need to put something together, if not here then opening the second half.

Woohoo! Etiennes in northern Florida!

Jesus. I go to put my kid to bed, and all hell breaks loose. Go Gators.

Well, fuck. "Football team doomed without Graham Mertz" was probably not on anybody's bingo card.

Or not? I return to my running theme that despite getting very close to pre-season expectations, this Florida team makes no sense.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Just enough hope to be dangerous. Too much time left...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

LOL. Damn. Whatchagonna do? This Florida team has a lot of heart, but it's a collection of 10-cent heads.

I have to work for part of today, and normally that would annoy me, but I feel like this week’s slate is pretty meh. A couple of good games, sure, but not one of those days that I’m watching from noon to midnight.

If I were a P5 commissioner, I would make it against the rules to schedule FCS opponents. I'm all for G5 programs playing them, but it's an embarrassment for the SEC in particular.

I also don't really buy into the concept that those pay-for-wins are good for the sport (in that ~$1M funds a lot of those smaller athletics programs). It's the same argument as trickle down economics, but in this case there are plenty of FCS schools (and lower) that don't get the payday at all.

Sorry for going on a bit of a rant, but the SEC needs to be put on blast in Week 12 every year until they knock this off

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, we should schedule someone other than our current opponent this week. I agree

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What I'm hearing is you would like Tennessee to play Austin Peay every year, got it
