    Man....I like his honesty:

    http://andreu.blogs.gatorsports.com/10796/weis-feeling-a-little-miserable/

    "“Third down, we were 31 percent,” Weis said. “I had to throw a play-action pass on the goal line to get in, and we had to go for it on fourth down to get it in (another time). I’m not too fired up about that, OK. Thirty-one percent on third down. That makes me miserable."

    He's right.....watching from the stands last Saturday it felt a little too much like last year.

    The difference is that we have our PK, Chris Rainey and a nasty defense.

    Otherwise Tenn prevails.

    I think we have a chance at Atlanta if Chollie can get the offense to step it up......if he has the players to do so.

    Most people thought that Chollie was letting his son play "coach" on the sidelines at ND when in fact it was the other way around.

    You got the wrong Weis ! :shock:

    The real one was on TV Monday....

    While I hope it will be different for you Gators, Charlies short yardage and goal line offense was not strong on the run part...he threw the ball a lot. Now maybe he never had a good enough OL and RB...but Power formations on the goal line weren't very effective.

    Of course last year at KC he was a running machine.

    My encouragement is that he calls a spade a spade......

    While UF won a very important game.......and were never really threatened......the offense was just ineffective enough to keep the fans worried that the game could turn.

    Ron Zook would have said we were getting "better and better"....and left it that.

    Chollie knows better.

    He has seen some danged good offenses even if maybe it wasn't at ND and he knows we aren't there..
