The Gator faithful began to lose their hope. The One that they followed out of the terror of the Ron Zook era disappeared suddenly. They weren’t sure what would happen next. But then news came out that the point spread increased by 2. What could have led to such a jump?
Yep, the Big Man on Campus is playing tonight, and CBS couldn’t be happier. Florida would have won anyway, because LSU is fraudtastic.
Other games to follow tonight after the jump
Michigan @ #12 Iowa
Colorado @ #2 Texas (actually 7-0 Buffs at the posting of this)
#22 Georgia Tech @ Florida State

Jeebus, Michigan’s kick returner just got knocked the fuck out. sparty(Quote)
jacquizz rodgers is having an ok game. 150+ yards and 3 tds at the half. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
stay off the streets of st louis tonight, TLR is probably going to hit the vino sae(Quote)
The Dodgers are going to win the world series. They have the best pitching staff and the best manager. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
guess i missed that series. matt holliday is to blame. sparty(Quote)
yeah, it’ll probably be a Joe-down in the WS sae(Quote)
false. NL pitching <<<<<<<<<<<<<< AL Pitching. sparty(Quote)
Did anyone not have 10 on Texas this week? knightwhosaysni(Quote)
because the Al beat the NL last year? knightwhosaysni(Quote)
is it last year? sparty(Quote)
The Yankees have a better offense than the Dodgers but they definitely don’t have better pitchers. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
CC, AJ and Pettitte are sooooooo much better than any front 3 on any NL team. Just look at all the pitchers that were struggling this year in the AL and then went over to the NL and suddenly were at their “best.” sparty(Quote)
this is laughable. Vicente Padilla is a fucking horrible pitcher and pitched 7 scoreless. he’s a fucking drunk that got kicked off the Rangers for his suckitude. sparty(Quote)
My dad is a huge Yankee fan so I actually kind of like them. I wouldn’t mind seeing them winning the world series. Liking the Yankees is liking capitalism. I just think the Dodgers will beat them is all. But in a 7 game series you never know. I definitely think it will be Yankees vs Dodgers though. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
I also think Joe Torre got the shaft. He helped them win 4 world series then management screwed everything up by mortgaging the future for a bunch of overpriced old free agents, of course Torre couldn’t win with them. Now that the Yankees have gotten younger they’re a threat again. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
agree. they sure didn’t help Torre. he was the scapegoat. sparty(Quote)
That has a lot more to the superior hitting in the AL. But, good God, the Dodgers have the WORST staff of any of the 8 teams. Unless it’s the Phillies, the NL gets swept. patphish(Quote)
agree. that’s my point about looking at the stats of NL pitching. especially staffs in the NL West. sparty(Quote)
Musberger drops this gem:
“Forcier reminds me Tarkington.” Exactly 2 seconds later he lost a fumble. patphish(Quote)
except Tarkington is like…ya know…a Hall of Famer. sparty(Quote)
The Dodgers have the worst staff? Have you been paying attention at all? You could pretty much count on them giving up 3 or less runs 5 out of 7 games this year. I know because I had them in the baseball challenge game on ESPN and they propelled me to the 96th percentile in both halves. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
N.L.WEST. sparty(Quote)
Hey the Cardinals have an awesome offense, how did they work out against the Dodgers terrible staff? knightwhosaysni(Quote)
For real, the Giants and Padres play a form of prevent offense. patphish(Quote)
Where the hell is fiesta trio to back me up? Did I alienate him too much with my USC hate? knightwhosaysni(Quote)
kwsn- Billingsley is their #1. Do you think he is better than CC? You could make and argument for Kershaw, but when AJ is on, he is filthy and unhittable. Now that Molina is catching for him, expect no meltdowns. Pettitte is so much better than Randy Wolf it is retarded. Now with Joba in the BP, nobody has a better BP than the Yanks. sparty(Quote)
speaking of fumbles, look who is closing in on the record
sae(Quote)
comment of the day. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
5 more fumbles and Favre would have basically unbreakable records for both fumbles and interceptions. This would make me indescribably happy. I will get my Favre fumbe voodoo doll ready now. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
he’s got the ravens and steelers coming up soon back to back, plus the game at lambeau…might have the record by their bye week sae(Quote)
I think Billingsly and Kershaw are better than CC and AJ. The Dodgers have a fantastic bullpen. Pettitte and Rivera are getting old. They are usually very good but sometimes…. well… knightwhosaysni(Quote)
please make this happen as I have the ravens d on one team and the steelers d on another. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
huh? you cannot be saying that with conviction. sparty(Quote)
Awesome based on…………..what?
7th in the League is runs. Finished behind the Mets in avg.
The Phillies (the NL team with a line up most resembling an AL team) will pound that staff like Thai hooker. Randy Wolf? AYFKM? patphish(Quote)
Dood, I work in a drug rehab if you need some help. patphish(Quote)
The Yankees bullpen this year is one of the 5 BEST OF ALL TIME. For real. patphish(Quote)
Jacquizz Rodgers 189 yards rushing 4 tds, 82 yards receiving. Holy crap that is one awesome game. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
naw I don’t need any help, I just like arguing and so does Sparty so this has been productive. I won’t watch any of it anyway. I’m just trying to back up my Dodgers over Yanks prediction. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
nice hook by the gators kicker. sparty(Quote)
Sparty likes arguing? Learn something every day. patphish(Quote)
why else would he create this blog when he is outnumbered by Boston fans on it? knightwhosaysni(Quote)
In world cup action, Germany, Italy, Serbia, Denmark, Mexico, Ivory Coast and Chile all qulaified today, joining Ghana, Australia, Japan, N. Korea, S. Korea, Netherlands, England, Spain, Paraguay and S. Africa who had already qualified. 15 spots to go! knightwhosaysni(Quote)
Brazil has also qualified forgot them. The US will also surely qualify so it’s really down to 13 more to go. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
link? patphish(Quote)
So, on the podcast that got wiped out, I called Florida 16, LSU 3. Figures. patphish(Quote)
there isn’t a link that spells it out that nicely. I simply went on to ESPN’s world cup standings and figured it out myself. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
boooooooooooo…………I am writing TMA and was looking for a gimme. patphish(Quote)
I’ll look harder for a couple minutes. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
Both ESPN and FIFA’s sites aren’t currently up to date with all 16 qualifiers. By morning they may be, but they aren’t right now. This is the FIFA site, but it doesn’t have Mexico and Chile as qualified even though as of right now they are. U.S. can qualify tonight if they win, but it’s 0-0 right now in progress.

Honduras scored and are up 1-0 so US is unlikely to qualify tonight. knightwhosaysni(Quote)
it’s a futbol update.
ok. i will give a comprehensive world cup update on my TMA. jp manahan(Quote)
