National Champs!!

All I can say is HOLY DEFENSE! Florida's D has been solid all year, but did I for see them playing that well? No. Holding Oklahoma to 14 points with an INT on the one yard line, and stopping them four straight plays inside the ten yard line. That was unreal. The interception late in the game was huge too, as was the blocked field goal. It seemed like whenever Florida needed a big play on defense they got it. After much touting on the speed and athleticism of the Florida offense, they struggled for a good part of the game. Some of it was definitely Oklahoma's defense (and Tebow throwing two pretty ridiculous INT's), but in the end they pulled through. Harvin (who was obviously less than 100%) played outstanding with 9 carries and 122 yards with 49 yards on 5 catches. It could have been a lot more than that if he wasn't hurt. A couple plays he would have broke for 6 if he had the speed he usually does. And what do you say about Tim Tebow? After a less than stellar first half, he wasn't going to let Florida lose that game. He willed them to a win once again. How about busting out the old jump pass! Gotta love it. Go Gators #1!!!

VS.




I know this news is a few days old, but I've been a little busy. Not only did Tikes beloved dungfoots lose, but my Dukies even jumped them in the rankings to #2. Not only that, but Duke took care of business against a decent Davidson team tonight and Boston College (who just beat UNC) loses to Harvard. Wow! Now I know Tikes isn't worried, he's probably even glad they lost (sort of). Because he knows they will come back even better after this bump in the road. It is shaping up to be a great year of ACC basketball, and I can't wait for the Duke/UNC match ups. Should be epic games as always.
