    That article on Mica was a decent read. Talk about perseverance...

    I hope the coaches and kids can rally a get a dominant win against Vandy. Home crowd should work. But once they win they need to take that mojo-chit with them to SC. SC will need a win bad and who's better to beat than the Gators.

    Consistency would be a good thing. Complete domination would be better. But...I'll temper my expectations and simply expect a win! It would sure make this Gator happy.

    Go Gators.

    If we can't upset Vandy at home, I will lose faith in the Process.

    Vanderbilt should never be called a must win game.

    But this is 100% a must not lose game.

    We lose this one there is no bowl game.

    I however believe we can and will win. Would love to thump them, but even SOS and Urban had 24-14 type scores against Vandy.

    I really thought we would beat Kentucky. I've got more games wrong this year than any year.
    No great teams. U S C looks good but gave up over 40 to Colorado
    .
    Our QB has played well might end up with around 75% completion
    Yes mostly short passes still not easy to do.
    Our OL has been so/so and we need Wilson playing to help pershall (sp). Still I think we bounce back and get the win.

    Billy needs to show he can defend the Swamp.

    3-0 so far must go undefeated at home.

    We need to take these guys down and take them down hard. With no more injuries please. Pretty soon we'll be calling for open receivers tryouts. I wonder if that walkon kicker dentist dude can catch?:rolleyes:o_O

    Go Gators.:)

    Winning is the first priority.

    Winning pretty would be nice to mollify the fans.
