Maybe Alabama is not as good as thought...and Florida isn't any good.... no onside kicks needed..

Florida has a bad offense and a good defense. There is worry among a lot of florida faithful that the defensive players leaving for the draft wont be into the game

I know one thing. I'm going to investigate the officiating crew before the game. Last time we played Florida in the Outback, the officiating crew had a couple of Florida Alumnus.

I didn't know people actually graduated from the U of Florida.

That's just the athletes. Regular students are stellar, at least by $EC standards. Think of Gators as Tigers-tah-can-read (take your pick of which Tigers, L$U, Auburn, etc.)

Yes, don't let these guys in the stadium again.

They were a crew from conference USA and sucked. I still have the 5 blown calls that I can vividly remember that are stuck in my head. The refereeing crew actually said something like this days after the game.....paraphrase "We just weren't used to the speed of the game with the teams from those conferences."

For those traveling on a budget; the cheapest flight seems to be on spirit airlines from Chicago round trip Jan1-4 for $198. From Cedar Rapids it's $409 on American Airlines for flights on those days.
