    You are conceding ground there a bit, i want to meet you in the middle. but i don't think as a coach you put that burden on your freshman qb.  I am not going to criticise coaching throughout, but that moment with the game condensed is crucial.  I don't know who called the plays on the last possession, but that was uninspiring.  S/T looked good for whatever that's worth.

    I’m just calling it like I saw it, not saying a really good coaching staff wouldn’t do better but our guys in their positions did their best.  What, should they not have called three running plays, with Battie as lead and Brown as the option?  It wasn’t crazy, is all.

    Anyone else feel like it’s Christmas Eve?

    Well, yeah.  

    I didn't mention this before, but now that you identified as a youngster... Leavitt always thought we'd find a rival in the Top 3, probably Miami because of the UF-FSU bond.  So, a lot of the old guys know and remember that.  Would have been nice.  There was no intention in the first 13 years of the program to settle in with UCF or whatever else was going on in Florida outside of big time football.  

    Now that we have sunk so low, sure it makes sense.  Our students that value the "rivalry" probably would have stormed the field tonight and old guys like Trip would have thrown up on them.  :roflmao:

    just a different perspective.  What we've become greatly influences what we accept.

    Please, I remember too well the first “War” on I-4 shellacking, was in the stands to ho-hum for that one and the next three, no doubt with you and all the oldsters.  I watched the tazers in the Louisville upset and felt the ride to #2 and sucked the air when West Virginia came to RayJay and Ben Moffitt etched our short term destiny there.  I have no entitlement to our “place” in college football, and not only know about but stood within the fabled trailer and shook our greatest coach’s hand while he clapped me on the back.  I knew with him that we were ready for a top 3 rival.  Well, we were all wrong.  So take your assumptions and mail them care of old guy shouting at the clouds on Fowler Avenue trailer pad.  I don’t give a **** about proving myself but label me as one of the newer old guys, ya geezer.

     

    And the take of UCF being our current rival is valid.  Whether you like it or not.  Again, the players have the receipts here, more so than us fans. If you were paying attention to to them you’d see it clearly.  Without them, we’ll be less relevant and less exciting.  That’s not good, period.
