    What’s a “former Gator”?
    Unless we’re talking about people like ETN

    Don't worry, they won't hold your youth and inexperience against you.

    Speaking of Pearl Harbor....
    Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!!
    It's not over 'til it's over!!
    Gators win on a late field goal!!

    If DJ plays, even if he's gimpy, we have a chance. I'm a little surprised we aren't using the fourth string QB as well. Spurrier liked him, if my memory serves me. (not that I have one, a memory that is) Cocktail party is a tough hazing event for any new QB!! It was certainly tough for Georgia's as well. :eek::p:D

    No idea about this game. Texas, at Texas? Hmmm. We could have beaten Tenn, we could have beaten Georgia. It would be nice to not have to say that after the Texas game.

    Go Gators.
