    If I heard the announcers right Ohio State just had their longest drive of the season but came up short on a missed field goal.

    It sure wasn't Pryor's fault though, I thought he looked pretty good.

    Pryor just silences the critics, for the moment anyway, with a run for TD to take Ohio State up by 14 - 0.

    I hope that Crompton warms up as well as Pryor has today.

    Seems like Pryor can play QB after all! Big win for, him and Tressel.

    Not a bad day at the office.

    Bill,

    Buckeye fans can be pretty radical! He did have a pretty decent game yesterday. Things should die down a bit now. :lol:

    I see you have taken the lead in the pickem contest. Congratulations.

    Don

    Don, thanks for the congratulations, actually I'm dumbfounded.

    Hey internet fans seem to be a special breed. The Gators are 7 - 0, on a 17 game winning streak, are ranked either on top or certainly in the top 3 and one of the favorites to win the BCS Championship this year.

    We have a bulls eye on our back every week and are winning ugly, but winning.

    The winning streak is longest in our history, and I could go on with other things also.

    However that's enough to make my point, with all that our internet fans have a very vocal group that think the Gators stink. They rate our Offensive Coordinator and QB coach as F's, our offensive line as failures, we have a lousy group of receivers and there are even some thinking Tebow doesn't do much right.

    That group wouldn't be happy if we won every game 70 - 7, they would be wanting to know why we gave up 7 points, why we didn't complete every pass etc etc etc.

    There I've vented.

    I'm glad Pryor had a good game and hope he continues his development.

    The Gator offense is very much out of sync right now while at the same time the defense has been brilliant such as last last night.....only surrendering 3 points on the road in the SEC for a second consecutive game.

    Offensively I think we run Tebow way too much down near the goal line and it is limiting what we score in the Red Zone.

    UF has other very good running back choices and Addazio needs to use them.

    I also don't know why Tebow is holding on to the ball so long this year because sometimes receivers are open and he just doesn't pick them out.
