Sportschump.net presents… What to watch this weekend
Can you smell that, sports fans? The freshly cut grass? The grill at the tailgate loaded up with low-sodium, turkey kielbasa? The stumbling guy with matching hat and jersey who has had way too much to drink hours before tip-off? That’s right. It’s that time of year again and we are all ready for some [...]
Urban Meyer, Tim Tebow and the Florida Gators’ Quest for Perfection
Tim Tebow was wrong. Believe it or not, college football’s poster boy actually made a mistake. During last year’s famous pledge to play harder than anyone else in the country, Tebow actually misspoke. After a 31-30 loss to Ole Miss, he apologized for not producing Florida’s first undefeated season. Actually, the Gators [...]
Florida-Georgia: A Rivalry Renewed
It’s close. I can feel it. This is what Steve Spurrier must have meant when he consistently called Florida-Georgia the most important game on the Gators schedule. The rivalry was so important to him, he obsessed over it. The Ol’ Ball Coach became the first Florida coach to beat Georgia seven straight times. Florida dominated [...]
More Hurricanes To Attack Florida; Meyer The Best Levee
Miami. The U. The orange and green. That silly pelican. These images extract a nauseating reaction from Florida fans. Although currently in rebuilding mode, Miami’s place in history as one of the most successful college football programs is undeniable. Five national championships. Countless impact players that have gone on to successful, if not Hall of [...]
Gators Fi-Lei Rainbow Warriors; Prove Florida Is Hotter Than Hawaii
On a day when Ohio State was leading its home opener 13-0 early and LSU led last year’s giant-killer Appalachian St by 31 points at halftime, it appeared at least early on that Hawaii would give the Florida Gators a fight. Florida won the coin toss and deferred to give Hawaii the football to start [...]
2008 Florida Gators Preview: Can Tebow and Co. win it all?
Football season is upon us and, once again, Urban Meyer and the Florida Gators field a team with national championship aspirations. While they’ll only admit to setting their sights on an SEC crown, a BCS bid would likely go hand in hand with that accomplishment. Last year, only one year removed from winning the second [...]
Gators’ Harvin, Spikes likely to rest up for Hurricanes
The University of Florida shouldn’t have much trouble with a rebuilding Hawaii team on Saturday afternoon, but the Gators’ chances of covering the massive spread (35+) could be affected by the potential absences of starting receiver Percy Harvin and linebacker Brandon Spikes. Both remain questionable with injuries. Spikes has been dealing with a nagging injury [...]
Hawaii playing musical QBs on eve of Florida game
As if the Hawaii Warriors didn’t have enough problems – having to face No. 5 Florida in the Gators’ home opener on Saturday at 6:30 a.m. Hawaii time; having to travel for nearly a full day, mostly commercially; and having to replace Colt Brennan and nearly their entire offense – now they don’t know who [...]
See ya later, Gator: Florida loses its top tight end
Sometimes people fault college juniors for leaving school early, saying they should earn their degree, blah, blah. Well, sometimes returning to school instead of taking the NFL’s money is the very worst thing to do. Every player that declares for the draft and then decides to return to school worries about injury ruining their future. [...]
