    No swamp there.  But, Ralph Waldo Emerson called Tallahassee “a grotesque place…rapidly settled by public officers, land speculators, and desperadoes.” 

    I've been to Gainesville and it ain't exactly a tourist destination. I can see why kids might choose Miami, Boca Raton, and Tampa for early playing time near the beach.

    ...Lack of parity is one of the things that makes college sports so great. Low expectations and high upside incentivize Have Not programs to take risks. Think 1970s BYU, Air Raid at Kentucky and Texas Tech or the Spread rushing attack at WVU. 

    Bobby Bowden and FSU are good examples of this with their play anybody, anytime, anywhere mindset while building up their program back before they joined the ACC.

    It’s no longer coached that way since punters got better at hang time and getting bounces close to the goal line. You’ll see lots of PRs fair catch inside the 5 now and casually jog off, no coaches on their ass. Personally I’d take a chance on letting it go on a bounce but most coaches would rather save the net 2-3 yards of field position instead of taking a shot at a touchback for some reason. 

    IDK if punters have gotten any better at hang time. Is that statistic even measured accurately?

    I'd still take my chances on a favorable bounce rather than a fair catch inside the 10.

    Wait a sec. With all their yammering about the weekly grind of the sec, they've only played Georgia once? Who are they complaining about having to play? The Mississippi teams and Arkansas? Lol.

    Bama and LSU, mostly. 

    aggy just traded daddies from UT and OU is how I see it. Results are comparable, just over .500 in league play wherever they go - SWC, Big 12, SEC, don't make a shit.
