Pre-game fun only....yes post-game, they will all be embarrassing.

Perfect one for the tailgate: We Want G(use the G emblem). Nothing pisses a bama fan off more than Georgia having the new CFB dynasty. The Horns Are Back, Horns Up Part Deux (pic of hand gesture) State of Alabama, WTF, you got Auburn Tigers yet you fly an eagle around and cry War Eagle, Alabama Crimson Tide makes you think of a beach scene of a bunch of dead fish yet you got Big Al the "elephant" running around as the mascot.

We do have a history of "retiring" coaches.....See Miami, FSU.

Well the UF contract was no bueno as the refs were from the SEC and not AAC.

The fear is that the contract dictated SEC refs like last year's Gator game and we all know what happened there (one of the worst biased-called games ever seen, SEC announcers even agreed during game). But who knows, we are home and it might be AAC who hate us too.

you can remove, I did not see topic already covered so far down on list.

Well good thing his name is not Todd Oviedo then!

Love them or hate them, they were just featured on the pre gameday uniform reveal on ESPN. Any pub is good pub I guess.

Well, today we complete the final game with the top 4 of the conference. Should have beat #1 Cincy, could have beat 2Tulane depending on Gerry not getting hurt. #3 Ecu disaster, #4 Houston, offense is good enough to beat them, but D is not. Watched Temple and Tulsa and they are just terrible teams and we have SMU at home. We could win the remaining 4 as they are weaker (some much weaker) than the last 4 teams we just played. Just need some D to play a decent game.

Did Grier leave football/ team for good?

Site finally just worked after about hour of trying.

Having same issue, who did you contact? Nobody is responding today. Thanks

If you mean by turf - real grass. It has never been artificial turf and we have been getting tons of rain down here for last 24 hours. We will have small crowd but we will be loud. The Palm Beach Post reporter that broke the story has added additional ESPN sources so apparently this is a real thing and will be announced by the schools later today.

I would sit Horn if not 100% and let him light up ECU when it counts. He would have been difference maker along with reasonable officiating at the Swamp.

HOT was right above us in Jordan Hare for the Auburn game.

During the game, we all kept saying does it look as bad on the broadcast as what we are seeing from the stands. There were a couple calls and no calls that were legit that we couldn't tell (Grier did do a 2nd push out of bounds that got the penalty and Battie was not body slammed by the 415lb lineman). But for the rest, ooo-doggie, here is the breakdown after watching the game last night: 1st Qtr: Battie was clearly on the ground from a KO return and Gator speared him (late hit, 15yds not called) Bohannon was 2 yds out of bounds and Gator had a late hit on him (similar to what Grier was called on) (late hit, 15yds not called) 2nd Qtr: Play that resulted in the 4th and a inch was spotted by the H ref on sideline who was still 8 yards away when our player was stopped. He had no clue to bring it back just before the 35yd line other than to force 4th down. Next play was brilliant with the reverse pitch where Battie was chased down...assume Horn would have not got caught if he was not hurt. We ended up settling for a FG. Two pass plays to back of endzone from each direction where it looked like a lot of grabbing resulted in no calls from the back judge sitting under the goal posts. (SEC announcers thought the second one should have been called where Weaver was starting to get tackled before the ball got there) (FG only, -4pts) Next UF possession, two 4th downs are saved by phantom penalties. First the hand checking pass interference where SEC announcers said if you let them get physical with the receivers of USF on two non-calls in the endzone, why are you calling it here. And then one of the worse calls of the game where a big lineman was way too far down the field from where his running back was tries to pancake our corner after the play and our guy tries to save himself and throw him to the side. If anything, call big 77 for illegal man downfield or a late hit. He was the aggressor running into our guy. (that would have been a difference of 4pts if they had to kick the field goal (add that to our settling for a FG in previous possession and that 8pt difference wins us the game). We found out how bad these refs were when they called the penalty on the Kickoff first on Gators, then on us and then back on Gators. 4th Qtr: Pass interference called on us for pick play. SEC announcers did not believe it was a pick play. Refs after the pick totally ignored our receiver getting manhandled on the sideline. UF guy did not look back or make any play on ball, just our receivers head that he swatted with his arm. Should have been offsetting interference and play goes over. Bohannon run over the middle collides with ref. Knowing they don't have to get out of the way, most of them side shuffle at least. There was a facemask on Bohannon that may not have looked so bad as he had the clear eyeshield going but the sideline staff for USF all saw it. Etiene got the last score of the game and immediately spiked the ball in the endzone as he was getting up right in front of the ref. You can't spike the ball in college football after a score. That should have been a 15 yd unsportsmanlike penalty on the kickoff. They would have had kick from their 20 and we would have likely started that last drive from close to midfield. You can say that all the other penalties are some type of judgement but this one is clear as day. The ref is always looking for what the scorer does and he saw him spike it. Watch the replay, the ball bounces 15 ft in the air. If there is any formal complaint sent in to NCAA/SEC, that is the one call they should be reviewing and assessing a low review score to that team of refs. Jeff Scott reportedly said he was going to stay quiet about the SEC officiating as we likely could not afford the SEC fines.......what a joke, I hope the SEC reviews these game and grades the refs because this was one of the worse called (one-sided )games I have seen. After the game, the po po put them all in prison vans real quick below our gate and escorted them out. Everyone was yelling cheaters as they were loading.

Highlights: We got turf. ~36 roles of turf sitting just outside IPF with the a sports turf install trailer parked across the street under the trees. Would assume it is being installed this week. Nothing else on the building inside or outside looks different in the past week other than the inside floor looks finalized as far as packed and leveled. Unique things noticed on turf rolls. They are individually numbered and appear to be like a puzzle where each is of varying length and placed in a specific order. Noticed the material is very thin and any impact is only to be absorbed by those rubber pieces they will fill in with. Surprised the entry lobby was not worked on and finished and it has nothing to do with any playing surface. Looks like an end of October opening instead of beginning of October as they will not be done in 2 1/2 weeks.

My apologies Cardinals, apparently birds do have teeth.
