Tourny ten will turn UF boys to men
2008-02-19 18:37:41
The past decade reveals a long line of success for Gator men’s basketball, consisting of nine consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances, three Final Fours and two back-to-back national championships. Specifically, the last two years, is a tough act to follow. The young Gator squad (19-7, 6-5 Southeastern Conference) might be in a rebuilding year after losing [...]

Rebels give Gator Nation a Scare
2007-09-23 22:36:16
This week the Gator s learned first hand why the SEC is regarded as the toughest conference in the country.  It seemed everybody, including myself, thought this would be a relatively easy game for us.  Coach Meyer knew better.  He knew that anytime you go on the road in this conference you are in for a [...]

37/married/straight/male with an incredibly juvenile mind coupled with some creativity. On line looking for fun! This is the beginning of our little Gator animated comic strip.  With some help, we can come up with a name for this ‘comic strip’ and some material for future animations.  This is Col.

Statement made against Tennessee
2007-09-17 00:11:54
Let me begin by recalling my favorite moment from this Saturday’s game.  With the 4th quarter winding down and the Gators putting the game completely out of reach, Tony Joiner walked up to Tim Tebow and gave him a kiss on the neck.  My first reaction was to turn to my friend and raise an [...]

The Fall of Troy
2007-09-11 18:04:41
Tim Tebow played the part of Achilles as the Gators improved to 2-0 after defeating the Troy Trojans this past Saturday in Gainesville. The Gators had a pretty amazing first half. They scored on all seven of their 1st half possessions and brought the score to 49-7 as they went into the tunnel. It was [...]


Bring on the madness - Mississippi St. – 68, Florida – 59
2008-03-13 23:32:03
Bring on the madness Mississippi St. – 68, Florida – 59 After a very shaky start, the Gators (21-8, 8-6 Southeastern Conference) just couldn’t seem to find their rhythm and fell to the Mississippi State Bulldogs (20-8, 11-3) 68 – 59 last night at the O‘Connell Center. The Gators were down by 12 points at the end [...]

When it comes to college football, it doesn’t get better than the Florida Gators . The Gators have been playing college ball for a long time- over one hundred years, in fact. And during that time, they have created an enviable reputation for themselves. They have been SEC champions seven times, were national champs in 1996 [...]

Welcome to Gator Nation!

The Real Titletown, USA A mere seconds after my acceptance to the University of Florida, I found myself perusing the student ticketing website to find out how I could secure football tickets for the upcoming season. I blinked hard and caught my breath when I was informed by the screen in front of me that I was [...]

“The Gators vs. the Hurricanes Through The Eyes of A Brooklyn Girl”
2008-09-09 20:10:28
Growing up in Brooklyn , I watched a lot of baseball with my dad. It was not until age 13, that I realized that the last line of the national anthem was not playball. So now I am a beginner football fan. The phrase “Go Gators ” has a little bit of a different [...]

Steady defense and a dose of Tebow call off Hurricane warning
2008-09-07 09:42:13
Ending a losing streak that extended to a time before he was born, Percy Harvin showed the Hurricanes that he was back. In his first action of the season, Harvin sealed the game in the fourth quarter as he ran for a two-yard touchdown. After not exactly taking over last weekend against Hawaii,  Tim Tebow showed some flashes [...]

Gators start season with a bang; College Gameday looms
2008-08-31 11:45:08
For the first time in years, Tim Tebow was not the driving force behind the Gators domination of the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors yesterday. Handling the Warriors by a score of 56-10, Tebow let his teammates take the spotlight as he managed the quarterback position rather than redefined it. Without stars such as WR Percy Harvin and [...]

The Alhoa state and returning Gator fans will notice a lot of changes in Gator Country.

Rejoice football fans, for the college football season is finally upon us! After weeks of watching hours upon hours of Olympic badminton, race walking, and synchronized swimming, it’s finally time for football in the Swamp.

A Miss is as Good as a Mile
2008-09-28 21:59:34
idiom “a miss is as good as a mile” has been around since the late 1400’s. On Saturday, I realized the miss they were talking about is Ole Miss. Ole Miss just barely defeated the Gators by one point. But that one point files this game away on the loss side. As the game played out, [...]


Rebellion in Gainesville leaves Gators ill with a case of fumble-itis
2008-09-27 15:47:58
A quick look at Percy Harvin or Tim Tebow’s numbers would make one think that the Gators coasted to victory over Ole Miss on Saturday. Unfortunately, one needs to look at the fumbles/fumbles lost and the lackluster conversion rate on third downs to understand how the Gators lost to a much lesser opponent. At home…in perfect weather [...]

In Wake of USC disaster, BCS glory is Gator Nation’s for the taking
2008-09-26 17:56:40
After USC outright blew their season with a disappointing loss to a less opponent in Oregeon State, the Florida Gator s cannot look past Ole Miss on Saturday. What it comes down to is that any team, regardless of ranking or record, can beat any other team on any given Saturday. That is the nature of the beast [...]

The Florida Gator Beat Tennessee Volunteers 30 to 6
2008-09-24 21:44:48
As a former political science major and being new to football, I am starting to think that the all volunteer football team is not the best idea for Tennessee . They should look into reinstating the draft because I understand the NFL has that and it works pretty well. Listening to sports talk radio in Gainesville, [...]

LSU Tigers Travel Almost Six Hundred Miles to Be Defeated by the UF Gators

Prior to the game on Saturday, I was transported to another planet, the planet of tailgating. This was my first tailgating experience and I learned a lot. I learned that when Louisiana fans talk it sounds like a New Jersey accent gone bad. Massive quantities of [...]

Gators Tame Tigers In Romp at the Swamp
2008-10-12 01:43:20
If two calls had gone the Gators way, we be reading a box score that said Gators 51 Tigers 7. Alas, a 30 point victory over a higher ranked team is nothing to complain about, in fact it calls for a brief celebration. Tim Tebow, like always, was one of the usual suspects who led the Gators [...]

Florida beat Arkansas 38 to 7. Who could have asked for a better day of football? The Arkansas team whose nickname is a kind of hog couldn’t handle the onslaught of the Florida team whose mascot is an alligator. In Brooklyn, the only hogs that I knew about were the sweathogs and they were [...]
