I copied and pasted their comments below from the Gator Swap Gas forum. Their about as arrogant as OSU fans.


"WE played them in Zook's second year and again in Meyer's first year. They upset a good Michigan team and destroyed Nebraska at home. I hope our defense comes to play, they are Alabama without the 5 star talent. Because a loss there, there will be noise if he starts 1-2 next year."

"Boring opponent. Open up the offense for recruiting."

"Either one of those opponents would give us about the same type game as LSU did. Pretty good defenses, nothing real flashy on offense. Gators beat either one of them 24-13." ( the other opponent this Gator fan spoke of is Nebraska)

"Oh God. Not this crap again. I hate Iowa. Their brand of football bores me more than a Ron Zook press conference."

"Iowa, Anyone else but Iowa."

"Confirmed by Brett McMurphy on Twitter. Sucks. Iowa really is an uninteresting opponent. Kinda wanted Nebraska."

"Iowa....zzzzzzzzz"

"Outback Steak House Presents: The Snooze Bowl. Final score: 2-2 (tie)"

"Iowa's offense is terrible. We've pretty much been able to beat every terrible offense we've played this year rather handily. The key will be how much effort will some of the guys looking ahead to the draft will give because you know Iowa is gonna play hard."

"They're a gritty team. Not sure we can out-coach them, but we should out-talent them."

"Iowans QB Blows! Anything more than 5 yards downfield is an incomplete pass" We can out coach and out talent them but if we can't throw the ball, it's hard to win."

"My honest opinion about this game is that we will destroy them and I am trying to remove the OB glasses on that prediction. It's a hard prediction to make after the last two games but I think we will destroy Iowa. Might be a good betting opportunity because whatever the line is, I think we will be counted less than we are.

UF - 24
Iowa - 10"

It's not like as an objective (non-Gator) college football fan...they are super impressive...

I'm excited though.
 
From DocGator..........

"Iowa is the borinigest team in cfb. Boring. Boring. Boring. Boring offense, boring uniforms, boring state. Our guys may just pass out from boredom before the end of the first half. I was hoping for Nebraska. At least we could maybe begin paying them back for 1995."
 
Its great the fans are not excited. Maybe the players are not excited either...likely...and the parallels with 2008 continue. I remember going into South Carolina...the word was that their defense was so physical and tough. It didn't matter.

They better take it back about the uniforms.Their the best in college football. Now I'm pissed.
 
"Hah. Iowa lost to Northwestern & North Dakota State. If Gators are motivated, they will win." ctlgator

"This is recipe for disaster. Their coach as often mid western disciplined coaches do will build this up as David versus Goliath. They and their fans will come down here all business and Our fans and players think this is a boring ridiculous game will probably get beat 21 to 6. For those of you thinking and saying that..man I sure hope we change that attitude because a win is a win and we need one. Coach mac's biggest challenge will be getting his team ready. If he does that we could start the new year with a little bit of momentum. They will do exactly as Michigan did and he planning on winning this game starting tonight. They will play action Us to death and pound the ball straightforward. They have a very good running back and a decent OL. I can see this game being a major problem based on attitude alone of our program. Remember this team beat Michigan"

"the first team to complete a pass of more than 10 yards wins."
 
I am really impressed with their fans. They have obviously watched us enough to know us this well. Dang B1G football must go over well in SEC country.
