Florida 30, Mississippi 24
I remember the last two times we played Ole Miss, they beat us two years in a row. And what stuck in my head was after the second game on October 4, 2003, in Gainesville no less, was an Ole Miss fan yelling to the Gators as they ran back into the locker room, "We own you, we own you!"
Go Gators!

Well Ole Miss, your ownership is revoked!
Go Gators!

Three in a Row!!!
With the 59 to 20 win over the Tennessee Volunteers, the Florida Gators has closed the series between the two teams to a 19 to 18 margin, and next year I expect the Gators to tie up the series 19 to 19!!!
And a new note, only three coaches have beaten Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer in three straight games, Steve Spurrier, Mark Richt and now Urban Meyer!!!
What a game!
Go Gators!

Three in a Row???
Three in a Row??? I sure hope so, and I believe it will happen!!!
Urban Meyer became the first Florida coach to beat Tennessee in his first two tries last season since Galen Hall. And Urban Meyer joins Steve Spurrier, Mark Richt and Tommy Tuberville as the only coaches to beat Tennessee's Phillip Fulmer in back-to-back seasons.
I believe a "three-peat" is going to happen today.
Even though our biggest concern is the defensive line of Florida with it's youth and lack of experience, they are starting to gel. And I do believe even though Wide Receiver Andre Caldwell will be sitting out for this game, Florida's offense has to many weapons that can score (not to mention Tim Tebow) to keep Tennessee's defense on their heels all game. The only chance I think Tennessee has to win in this game is to out score Florida's offense, and I don't think that is likely.
Go Gators!

Gators' QB: 'God, family, academics & ...'
Baptist Press has written a great article on Tim Tebow called: Gators' QB: 'God, family, academics & ...'
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (BP)--Holding the most high-profile position on the defending national championship team -- making him the biggest Big Man on Campus at a football-crazed school -- could easily go to the head of any college sophomore, but Tim Tebow says that football is not even the third most important thing in his life.

Florida 49 vs. W Kentucky 3 Final
With about nine minuets left in the game we had a lightning delay that lasted for about an hour, then the officials decided to make the game a final at Florida 49 - Western Kentucky 3.
All I can say about our offense is just plain AWESOME! Our young defense needed this game to work out some bugs, and they started to gel real good after the first drive Western Kentucky ran against us.
Tim Tebow far exceeded my expectations as our new starting QB, and passing in the way I remember Danny Wuerffel did a decade ago - long and accurate! Tim ran the ball a few times like he mainly did last season, but running was not assigned to him like last season. But seeing the threat he has by being able to just take off with the ball just stopped Western Kentucky's secondary in their tracks.
The receivers Andre Caldwell, Riley Cooper, Percy Harvin, Louis Murphy, Cornelius Ingram and David Nelson all did great, plus seeing Cameron Newton come in to relieve for Tim Tebow and seeing that he can run the same offense that Tim runs is very refreshing.
I was hoping to see a field goal kick or two, but the Gators' high powered offense kept making touch downs! All of Joey Ijjas' extra point kicks were good!
Charley Strong will keep working on a well talented but young defense that did grow a little today, but with the experience they lack was sure made up for today with their determination, self control and sticking to the basics.
Even though the weather did not cooperate in the end, I'd still would have liked to have seen a full sixty minuets of Gator Football. Oh well, there's always next week when Troy comes into town!
Go Gators!
