    The streak continues!
  2. Billy appreciates this defense not making it to Gainesville last week.
  3. I applaud your endurance. Need a Gatorade?
  4. What's a normal time for a greasetrap truck to be operating in a downtown location?
  5. Quite the read. I felt like I was there. Shitty that you got fake-ass Gator bites. We do get flyovers at UF, but probably once a season. Lately they've been doing them on the Salute to Veterans game.
  6. Thanks again.
  7. The only thing you can control on a road trip is the time you have. Can't leave it up to the team to make it succeed or fail. Been to enough road losses in my time to figure that one out.
  8. The streak continues! Ok, do what you guys gotta do.
  9. Reitz Lawn is a nice spot for a tailgate. Had a friend there book a spot there once for a Tennessee game. Ended up next to a big Vols tailgate and got to see Phil Fulmer walking around pressing hands. Hopefully it just mists a little for you today and nothing heavy.
  10. What I have read is that underdogs sell the first couple of rounds. People love the compelling storylines of teams that they don't normally watch. Plus betting pools are filled with people who don't watch hoops and are in it for fun plus the people who think they know the game and are always trying to outthink it. But it eventually dissolves to where they prefer the big names and better teams at the end for good basketball. This year's final four had one of the biggest audiences of all time with 4 1-seeds.
  11. Is TIX no longer the standard?
  12. No camping there. All day use. Plus it’s still 30 minutes away.
  13. No cabins but Paynes Prairie has tent sites with electricity.
  14. Best I can do is a discounted hotel rate in Ocala. I don’t have any Gainesville local connections anymore.
  15. FSU and Jawgia kind of tie for Florida's rivals really But in the 90s and 00s it was for sure FSU because jawgia sucked and FSU was good Concur. They're basically 1A and 1B And then it gets really messy after that because: Miami/Auburn were both historically much higher but have fallen off a cliff since we don't play often anymore. Tennessee has arguably risen to #3 even though the rivalry is "new" though at this point, that's 30+ years. LSU has been our most consistent conference rival after Georgia but we don't have the fanbase overlap that all of our others are so it's stuck in the mud with the others. Kentucky has been a long played game but the rivalry has been one way.
  16. Thank you.
  17. For investing purposes, it looks to me that Oklahoma is not good in 2nd and 4th quarters.
  18. How do you know that he posts here?

    Well, none of them had contracts like Jimbo. We'll be paying Billy like $10M when we fire him plus another $10 over the next 3 years. Mullen was like $6M when we fired him and another $6M over 3 years.

    I think Mullen and McElwain had a similar setup.

    Yeah... that definitely felt emotion driven.

    If I understand correctly, the cost difference is negligible as to when to do it in season vs at the end as Napier's buyout is 85% of his remaining contract. So you're either paying him 100% to coach, or paying him 85% to not coach and paying an interim coach some extra money to finish out the season. The bigger factors are that he is due 50% of that payout within 30 days, so you need to have the lump sum ready. And of course the fact that you have to have your ducks in a row for whoever is going to be hired for next season.
  23. Hey now, Gainesville has springs nearby.

    No worries. Part of the fun of SEC away games and the seating requirements.
