I guess we'd better quit complaining about Mike Slive. Dooley's exactly right here. It was the non-conference schedule that got the Gators in.

The SEC commissioner, fresh from his time on the selection committee, delivered a message to the SEC's basketball coaches in Destin at the spring meetings. You have to schedule better in the non-conference. In Nashville, he told me Florida's schedule was its best weapon with the committee. He said you have to schedule four or five good non-conference teams. And you have to win a couple. And that's what Florida did. I wonder if the NCAA Tournament missed Florida. Fellas, it will be a different team than the last one you remember coming from Gainesville. But it will be one that's really happy to be in Oklahoma City. They weren't even on the bubble. Unbelievable. -- 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
