    [QUOTE=Dustin D;1050596]Thanks Troll, read the post in context. It wasn't an excuse it was a very logical explanation in regard to the play call

    No troll here. Just an observation. Clearly looks like a wudda, cudda, sudda to me rather than an explanation.

    Oh, and IF Louisville had not given up the kick off return for a TD, the game would have been a blowout.

    i think it will be either #1 notre dame or #2 alabama who play in the bcs title game monday evening?

    monday the mighty sec will have yet another opportunity to "lay an egg" for all who are so tired of the sec's bcs success. eight in a row for the sec, we shall see? four in a row for a state that is 49th in every national statistic(thanks mississippi), we shall see?

    congrats to louisville, great win, great season!!!!!!!!!

    This season is proving yet again that teams who aren't excited to be in a bowl game can lay an egg. Little motivation is a bad thing.

    Watching Texas A&M over Alabama, Clemson over LSU, and now Louisville over Florida the SEC has some wholes. They are great at smash mouth and against other teams that play smash mouth but they have real problems against speed based option and west coast style attacks. Seems like their corners are not great cover guys. Luckily I don't think Goldston from ND is good enough to give Bama as many issues, but he is young and if he has made a lot of strides in the last 6 weeks then Bama might be in a lot of trouble.

    C'mon Man! If you can't get up for the SUGAR BOWL! There is no getting up period. Florida got beat in everyway and it wasn't b/c they didn't want to be there.

    It's holes and I knew it wouldn’t be long to hear this talk.

    So how do you explain the 'Fastest Most Unstoppable Team of the WEST'-Ducks- not being able to beat two different SEC Teams on the big stage? The past history of SEC Teams beating HIGH-POWERED Offenses*rolleyes* in big games, goes back in history quite some length. It's especially been no problem in the BCS era of College Football.

    I think LSU's patchy O-line got demolished and their 'D' got worn out from being on the field for 100 plays. The better team won. Boyd to Hopkins were on fire. LSU loss by 1 on a last second field goal as time expired. We watch the game. LSU was a first down away from kneeling out. They played hard and got edged out. No shame there.

    Miss St? who really thought they'd win? Their Fluff schedule got them to 7-0 and then what happen when they played their Division? They went 1-4.

    Florida? uh....might have to ask someone else. Cards were playing with a chip on their shoulder of course after being told for a month they didn't belong. They got a Pick 6 at the start to REALLY set the tone. A 3 & out for Florida and then a 6-minute drive for a TD and they never looked back. I think if Florida's 'D' would have got a stop on that first drive it would have slowed everything down. But the Cards came to play and looks like Florida completely underestimated them.

    add to that the prolonged gap between the end of the season and the bowl game....one month is just too long

    Saban has proven to be the best at taking advantage of the long gap in the past. I hope it continues. I am not an SEC fan, but do like to see them pound Big 10 teams every bowl season and really would hate to see ND win. What the SEC has done so far scares me.

    I guess you guys might have a point on the lack luster performance of Florida;
    http://www.yardbarker.com/college_fo...ville/12565543

    No, the problem doesn't lie with the people who saw this one: it lies with the people who didn't. Because if a team's fans don't care enough to come to the games, how can't expect the players to care about winning them?
    According to the Orlando Sentinal, Florida sold fewer than 7,000 tickets from their official allotment of 17,500.
