No, if you will recall, I was the one wearing the large, unattractive but very effective Pollyanna glasses purchased at the "Pollyanna Gear by Oliver" web site. I'm thrilled to be 9-0, SEC East Champions, headed to the SECCG and possibly the NC.
I said that I was thinking maybe we had become the "Masters of the Vanilla Offense". It was meant as a compliment to Meyer and Co. for not giving Saban and Mack Brown any good tape to watch. However, as it was pointed out, there is already enough tape out there of our offense that we don't need to throttle it down on purpose. Therefore, color me clueless, but unconcerned.

The fans are expecting another BCS National Championship and are holding their breath until that happens. Nothing will be good enough until then. Wasn't it more fun when we weren't so good? A.

What I hear on this list is not different from what I hear from other Gator fans. I was not at the Swamp Saturday, but the TV announcers repeatedly commented on the crowd being subdued. Maybe some of you who were there would have some take on that. Maybe we fans are uptight and anxious like the team: we're making them anxious and they're making us anxious. We do need to put it in perspective, of course. Any year the Gators get to go to SEC championship is a great year.

Is something reading the message boards and thinking that a few cranks speak for the entire GatorNation? Heck, a lot of those posters are fans of opposing teams, and post only to create a tempest in a teapot. Our coach seems to be buying into a perceived negativity. Is it coming from the sportswriters? I don't know any long time fans that are unhappy. -Zeb On Nov 9, 2009, at 6:51 AM, Juno Gator wrote: Florida is the defending national champion, the winner of two national titles in three seasons, currently ranked No.1 in the Bowl Championship Series standings, led by a quarterback who will go down in history as one of the greatest college football players ever to play the game, winners of 19 straight games, winners of the SEC Eastern Division for the second straight season and coached by a man many consider to be the best in the business. But and on Sunday -- a day after defeating Vanderbilt 27-3 -- all most of you can do is focus your thoughts on details that are, in the end, meaningless. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
