Urban's last second TO was bullshit-it is legal, but I think they should make a rule against this. Trying to ice a kicker is part of the game, but if you want to try to cut it that close-no way-if the snap and kick are off, too bad. I'm sure Raiders fans would agree w/ me. Congrats to the Tigers anyway......

Give that kicker credit. He's better than Phil Dawson and Sebastian Janikowski.

i don't think i can root for uf still, i live in florida, so it's really hard for me. I'm not going to root for lsu either...how about this, lsu beats uf, then in the sec title game, uf beats lsu...perfect.

NO! Then your going to have UF back in the title game with the exact scenario that got them there.

UF beats LSU regular season and loses SEC title is kinda what you want.

Why coach, if you cannot use the rules to your advantage?

I have no problem with Meyer using the rules to his advantage. If they change the rules to take away the specific advantage that forms the basis for your complaint, that would also be fine. But, don't complain about a coach taking advantage within the rules, that isn't fair to him.

Some observations

1. Boy, some of us are still bitter about January 8th, it seems. I guess can see where most of you are coming from, given that 90% of UF fans on the internets have been pretty crass and classless since the debacle. They're tearing themselves apart on their forums, apparently not realizing the polls think a 2-loss SEC team is a better team than an undefeated team from any other major conference (because the polls are retarded).

2. It was nice to see the looks on Gator fans' faces when they were down 14-0 and 17-3. The girl with the Gator head crying was a classic. The entire show was almost as nice as Michigan fans against App St and Oregon. Almost.

3. The Auburn kicker's chomp at the end was priceless. Takes guts to do it, even if the game is over. You know the crowd will give him hell the next time he's there. It probably won't matter; he's clutch. Is it me, or is the Swamp not as tough to play in as it's cracked up to be?

4. Where has this Brandon Cox been? Tiger fans have been calling for his head since the beginning of last year, and Tuberville has stuck with for reasons beyond, well, everyone. I guess this win coupled with winning out in-conference proves Tuberville right. It probably won't happen. Tubes needs to get another home meltdown out of his system before the year is out.

5. By the polling logic shoved down our throats by certain unnamed entities... Mississippi State>Auburn>Florida. Again, polls suck, but they suck even more when people try to be "scientific" about them.

6. Urban Meyer acts like a teenage boy that couldn't get to third base after losses.

7. Tebow looked like Leak at times today. He wilted under pressure often in the first three quarters. Good fourth quarter, from what I remember. That's what sets him apart and makes him "Superman" as opposed to Leak's dreaded Two-Face.

8. Lastly, as I said earlier, the Florida forums are tearing themselves apart wondering how and why this Gator team lost to this Auburn team. Why do these fans talk up conference strength and then throw a hissy fit when their team drops one or two in conference play? Look, you can go undefeated in a down conference like tOSU last year and get your doors blown off in the bowl game, or you can take your lumps in the regular season and lose 1-3 games but dominate in your bowl game. Very few teams of late go in between, save maybe a USC or '05 Texas.

Actually if UF loses one or two more you may see Georgia or Kentucky or South Carolina in Atlanta instead of UF.

I cannot wait to do 'the chomp' in front of all these fair-weather, bandwagon-jumping Gator fans in Ohio today. I work with way too many of them. I've had to deal with everyone talking about the pathetic look on our fans' faces after Jan. 8th all year long. Did you see their crowd last night? Oh, it's going to be a good day. A perfect fall day to be a Buckeye.

It has nothing to do with fans on the internet and everything to do with tOSU haters in Ohio. Oh, yes, it's going to be a good day.

:oh:

I thought it strange that Meyer could stand there with his hand on the ref
waiting for the last second to call his time out.
That seems over the line, but it was at Florida! :tongue2:

That's incredibly common, Taos... I imagine Tubby did the same thing at :03 seconds.

No not really.

31-24 W Iowa (bogus onside kick call)
10-27 L Miami
17-37 L Iowa
30-38 L Michigan
