A Twisted Road Back to the Top


So the stage has been set.
Louisville takes down West Virginia.
Rutgers takes down Louisville.
Gators fans should be ecstatic.

This weeks BCS Poll look like this-

1. Ohio State -(Plays Michigan, one of top two teams must lose)
2. Michigan - (Plays Ohio State, one of top two teams must lose)
3. Louisville- (Lost to Rutgers, drops out of National title contention)
4. Florida - (Must keep winning, get that offense going!)

The Gators are poised to move into the number two position in the BCS Poll by seasons end... as long as we keep winning.

The offense is struggling, particularly Leak's interceptions, the offensive line injuries/inexperience and the inability to use the loads of talent. All I can do is hope the football gods shine down on us the last games of the season, and our coaches figure out whatever needs to be figured out.

The defense is still rock solid, even after losing Marcus Thomas. He was a beast in the trenches. Brandon Siler, our top linebacker, has a tweaked knee. But I hope he is ready for the South Carolina game. We need all our playmakers from here on out.

The Rest of the UF season is not easy (except for one game). The brutal schedule continues. The pain/brutality these players go through every week is tremendous.

UF Remaining Schedule

*November 11 South Carolina - Spurrier is a conniving couching genius
*November 18 Western Carolina- Time to rest up, try new plays, Tebow
*November 25 at Florida State- Back on track w/ QB Xavier Lee. (Rivals!)
*SEC Championship Game (Arkansas?, Auburn?)- A top BCS caliber opponent
*Bowl Game (Ohio State?, BCS bowl?)- Best of the best


Keep winning Gators, you control your own destiny. Bring it the last 5 games. Let's see who the real playmakers are.
