in the stadium knows you did well, call me a sucker for an understater. That said, the celebrations that were
flagged were NOTHING. The ones I hate are the QB sacks or tackles near or behind the line where they flex out
and stomp and tromp around WASTING valuable energy that the TEAM needs for success. I call that selfish.

I agree with you, both about hating the outlandish celebrations for simple plays, and that the plays flagged in the game yesterday were nothing like that. :tu

in the words of Lee Corso, not so fast my friend:)

Tebow's back up, John Brantley, is a dang good quarterback. He's got a cannon, throws a beautiful ball and can run a little if need be. Brantley's no Tebow runner for sure but he's better than Chris Leak.

I still think FL is favored to win, albeit only by like 3, if Brantley starts. The key would be our receiving corp.

:banger

I believe FL will win it mainly because you can't show up late against an offense like theirs you will be too far behind

Pretty good observation. A slow start by LSU won't be enough to get the job done. BUT, I am having fun right now, because every mouth on the air is
dogging LSU as about to fall, about to be exposed etc. Don't they remember
that for the last 8 years, LSU has done only enough to get the job done?
LSU 28-FLA 24:D

I've said it before and I'll say it again.....

I'd rather have an ugly win than a beautiful loss.

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy, but I would settle for a Gator win. :)

If I were an LSU fan, I would rather see Tebow play. I would want to go undefeated knowing the team beat the best, not that Tebow being out was a big factor. But, that's me. I figure to be the best, you gotta beat the best.

Imagine if Ole Miss had beat South Carolina. We'd have 2 Top 5 sec matchups in the same weekend (#1 vs #5 and #3 vs #4)! Bet it would have been the first time that ever happened in any conference.

hahahaha myself.

BUT, let me remind ALL of the FLA faithful, that if you put Tebow in the game,
we ARE going to take him OUT of the game. I do not mean this in a
'gunnin for tebow' mindset, I mean that a concussion is a serious thing, and
sports coaches and trainers have LONG been known for putting players in
games they should not be in, given what we know about the brain today.
And there is no way in hell the Tigers are going to treat him like some kind of
tender baby that needs to some extra deference. He is going to go down on
his a$$ and stay there if we can get to him and hit him, like any QB on any
team.

And on the subject of a win 'the right way', I tend to agree, but there will be
no asterisk by this game in the record books if Florida fields an 'inferior QB'
and LSU wins. Teams play teams, not scenarios or wish lists.

ALL That said, LSU has a tough challenge ahead. NO turnovers, a decent running
attack, and WHOEVER the QB is, we need to hit him, get him rattled and KEEP him
rattled. We need to keep the score low and manageable. Our chances are lower than 50-50.

Actually, had that happened, Ole Miss would still be No.4 and LSU would likely be out of the top 5.
WE took the Rebels' spot. Can't have it both ways, lol.

Ole Miss would be #4 but LSU would most likely be #5 (maybe #6 at worse). Only team that might have took the 5th spot from them was Boise State and I doubt that. All the other teams in contention are 1 loss teams.
