I would love to ask the coaches what exactly Florida has done the past 2 yrs to merit preseason ranking, besides be Florida.

“And Georgia fans, don’t be turds. Enjoy this. Soak it up. It’s awesome. If you don’t win this year, it’s still not a failure. It’s a heck of a run. Back-to-back in the Playoff era hasn’t been done. So, to ask for a third I feel like it’s gluttonous. I feel like it’s not OK. But we’ll be in the mix.”-- David Pollack, On3.com, 5/9/23
They all talked to his mythical Montanan. He thinks Florida is still elite.

If they showed this Montananin (Montani?, Montanain?) a picture of Uga p*ssing on a UF helmet, which would they recognise first, Uga or the helmet?

Can’t stop laughing. What a wonderful image this conjures up. If you could actually set this up and get a photo, you’d make a fortune selling copies.

Full season suspension for peeing in public. Plus, if it occurred in Athens he’d get prosecuted for public indecency.

Not to mention, Mike Adams would be trying to catch the pee with a plastic cup to test it.

Yeah, I believe public urination is frowned on by the local law enforcement, although in most other Georgia counties, it would warrant a medal not an arrest.

Better yet, we could use a large stuffed alligator. Anyone in So Ga or Fl got an “in” with Fish and Game? Gators taken illegally are frozen until trial. Haul a big one out on the grass, let Uga or a friend try to thaw out the head part and it will show up nicely on film. Certainly someone out there already has such a photo?
Better yet, there’s an alligator farm on the way to Panama City. Anyone making a trip anytime soon?

this could actually be trickier than you think. Remember, even Florida people can’t tell the difference between an alligator and a crocodile. What can you expect from folks in Montana?

I get his point, but as much as I may not like it, being Florida is probably enough – the question being who would you put ahead of FL that you would favor in a head to head game? And I don’t mean bickering over a couple of spots, we will always do that, I mean who is ranked lower and would *obviously* crush the Gators?
And anyway, their D is supposed to be excellent this year, is it not?
I believe you would call this a meteor debate, Senator.

ie, if FL beat GA or USCe this year, it would be an upset but not a crazy mind-blowing event…although I will be a sad, sad, Cosmic Dawg for a few days if we don’t beat the snot out of them this year.

I hope they beat FU for your sake. Nobody likes a frowny-faced Cosmic Dawg. 😉

It takes a few bad years for the glow to ware off of any program that did what UF did. UGA was over ranked for several years after 83.

They are rated 23rd for God’s sake, what is his complaint? They are rated ahead of Notre Dame and Auburn, anyone want to bet on either of them against Florida? It’s a freeking pre-season poll, how many decades will Notre Dame be over rated based on pre WWII accomplishments achieved against questionable competition?

We are as sensitive and serious as any Delta Tau Chi brothers can be. We are the Animals of Dawg House (Oops! Writer’s lexdysia, or was that dexlysia) and you too can wake up with a Montana Griz head next to you or buried up to your neck while Uga uses you for a fire hydrant.
