PrintYou know the drill by now: I gave you three reasons to be worried about the Tennessee Volunteers, three reasons to be worried about the South Carolina Gamecocks, and three reasons to be worried about the Auburn Tigers. Now that Team Speed Kills has told us three things we know and three things we don’t know about the Florida Gators, it is time to share . . .
1. They’re Florida: Have you been paying attention for, like, the last 20 years? All the bounces we used to get have gone their way even when it’s been close, and, lately, it ain’t been close. Remember D.J. Shockley getting injured for one danged game? I mean, come on!
2. They’re Florida, for crying out loud!: Seriously, we were a lot better than them in the Ron Zook era, and we still went 1-2 against them. It’s a freaky psychological thing at this point, and it wouldn’t matter if every one of their starters got hit by a bus getting off the bus, for Pete’s sake!
3. Did I mention that they’re Florida?: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no Tim Tebow, no Charlie Strong, yadda yadda yadda. Read my lips . . . we’re all the time losing to these guys, so I’ll believe we can beat ‘em when I see it, O.K.? I mean, we’re having our best season since Herschel left, and we can’t convert one lousy third down because our all-time leading receiver drops a pass that hits him on the dadgum hands? Are you kidding me?!?!
Go ‘Dawgs!

Do y'all remember...
when John Smoltz was struggling for the Braves during the 1991 campaign? What eventually helped his psyche was a clever little visual crutch his “sports therapist” devised. This gentleman sat behind home plate, wearing a very conspicuous red shirt. When Smoltz felt doubt creep in, he’d glance up into the stands, see his version of Dr. Frazier Crane, and then pitch. It seemed to work, a Hall-Of-Fame career later.
What we need is a huge Red and Black inflatable stick of butter on the sideline. I think if the team can embrace the power of milk fat and sodium, anything is possible. I tried googling a big, Red and Black stick of butter but came up with nada.

UGA @ South Carolina Tickets
Hey Kyle, for the first time in a long time, South Carolina has additional tickets available to the UGA game. Of course, they have learned from everyone else that they should sell a mini pack. But the good news is that the 3 game pack with UGA includes Tennessee. The other game is Troy which looks to be of little value, but you can sell the UT ticket for decent money. So let’s turn Columbia Red & Black and pack their stadium with our fans. The mini packs go on sale to the public Tuesday 8/10 at 10am. Go to gamecocksonline.com and click on the mini pack banner. GO DAWGS!!
Thanks for the tip, Football Dude.
I understand that South Carolina, like Colorado, has a secret promotional code commemorating the team’s national championship season. For the Buffaloes, it was “1990.” For the Gamecocks, it’s “Next Year.”

Dang, now I feel old.
I was there in the ‘70s. I remember saying, “Ooooh burn!” (We didn’t use the “Aaaah” for fear of sounding like we were saying the name of a rival school. I hate Auburn.)
Go 'Dawgs!
HA!
I love it! I’m a lurker but couldn’t resist commenting on this. I live in South Carolina and have many Gamecock friends, so I’m well-versed in the ways of the Cock fan. At least one of them has already proclaimed this to be “The Year of the Cock”. Awesome burn, I nearly fell out of my chair when I read it.
AWESOME
