You may have noticed that you have been down lately. During that same time we have been very successful. Now would have been a great time to play you. I mean, the last time we played Da U Wandy in '08 was crying to the press about Urban running up the score on him.
Back to history. We beat you badly in '83 when you were favored. Your only defeat in the cane's MNC season. We also beat you in '85, when you were favored. The last home defeat for you for another 50 or 60 games. So it is not like you owned us in the 80s. I'm old, so I know.
When the SEC went to an eight game conference requirement, and having to play a home and home with FSU - we dropped you guys. We were stuck with eight conference games, every other year required to go to Tallyho - and of our conference games one of them was not ever a home game, but in Jacksonville. Both the University and the city fathers of Gainesville wanted games in G-ville. Simply, our AD and city wanted the $$$ for teams not requiring a home and home. What Foley (the best AD in the business, IMO) wants, he gets.
See you in 2013.
