Howdy Gators:
Surely a week off from college football has been a welcome reprieve for all Florida fans from the past month of gridiron futility. Like many of you, I have honestly blocked out the details of the Auburn game (I recall it was played in Alabama, but luckily the remaining particulars of the contest escape me..), and have tried to take advantage of the bye week to enjoy the brisk and beautiful fall weather here in the Northwest.
Hopefully the brief respite from the grind has also allowed the battered Gators to regroup, recuperate and diagnose some of the many issues currently plaguing them. Unfortunately we face another extremely difficult challenge this weekend against our surging neighbors to the north, the Georgia Bulldogs. While it appeared in the early goings that UGA was headed for a dismal season of their own, and a likely ousting of Mark Richt from the helm, fortunes have turned in Athens, and they now share the lead in the SEC East. It just doesn’t get any easier, does it? But there may be help on the way, as John Brantley returns from injury and will hopefully lift the Orange and Blue from their recent offensive doldrums. Perhaps he might even channel Tim Tebow, ala the game against the Miami Dolphins last Sunday. Tebow! Tebow! Tebow!
Come on out and watch Florida face off against what has historically been our biggest rival, the Georgia Bulldogs, in the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. UFhas owned this series for the past decade and has won the past three meetings, but as we all know the fates haven’t been kind to the Gainesville Faithful of late. If the Gators don’t show improvements over their last three utterly dismal outings, well… those cocktails are going to come in handy.
Go Gators,
Courtney
