    Hate to say it but I don’t give the Gators much of a chance.

    Until we get a new Head Coach it’s not much fun to be a Gator fan.

    However I will turn on the TV and hope we can turn it around.

    Huge game for Arch and the Longhorns, they have been playing minor league teams since the Ohio State game and even with that Arch hasn't looked like the QB we hoped he would be this season.

    So road game to the Swamp and while I agree the Gators are a team in trouble, they still have a lot of good players and I expect they will give the Longhorns a test.

    A loss to the Gators or a win but with Arch continuing his average play at QB will be a problem for the Longhorns. He needs a big game, not a big game like 500 yds passing but a big game where he looks sharp throwing the ball even if he only throws it 20 times.

    Bill,

    Who are the Gators fans dreaming of for replacement of Napier.

    Most want Lane Kiffen from Ole Miss.

    I am pretty much of that opinion myself.

    10-0. I sure didn’t expect this.

    But still very early.

    Congratulations Bill, great win for the Gators. But this was an awful loss for Texas, it's looking like a 3 or 4 loss team and not the CFP team that everybody expected.

    What’s up with Manning? While Simpson is meeting or exceeding the Alabama expectations, Manning is falling well short of all of the predictions of his performance as a starter. All of the experts and the media put unbelievable expectations on the young man. I wonder if it was just too much? Of course the season is not over and he could still catch fire.

    Had to go out to dinner with visiting family and didn’t get to see the second half. Have it recorded though and will watch tomorrow. Very happy though.
