Gators Win Big, Make DAWGS look Bad

Well, we did it again. Traveled to Jacksonville, to walk away with yet another loss. The DAWGS just can't seem to put back to back wins together against the gators from Gainesville.
The weather was perfect, yet again, for a battle on the St John's, but there was no battle. The Dawgs brought NO armor with them to battle, and missed opportunity after opportunity in the first half to keep things close. Two missed field goals, an interception, and some kind of trickery called a squib kick with the game barely into its first half, caused the DAWGS to lose any type of momentum, giving it all to TEBOW and CO. No crying this year, just a chance to redeem himself after being hurt in 2007. Half the stadium was empty again by the first of the fourth quarter, this time there was NO RED remaining, just blue and orange. The loyal gators stayed til the very end, while Meyer decided to take a few extra timeouts with the game in hand, to let his third string tailback get a few carries in. The impatient dawg players, not happy with this- might remain on their minds til next season.

Oh well, with 3 more victories, over KY, Auburn, and Tech, the DAWGS might end up 9-2 and on their way back to the land of the Citrus, more than likely a birth in the Capital One Bowl, to compete with Michigan State. Stay tuned!!!!!
