15 minutes left. Could we see another miracle finish ala the Fiesta Bowl?

Negative. Troy Smith is not having his best day at the office. He just froze on that last sack.

To think that there were many who said that Florida didn't even deserve to be in the championship game...

Heisman-winning QBs are now 1-5 in BCS Championship games.

my thoughts;

-people who argued the gators shouldn' t be there had a valid arguing point, until last night. the gators have never played like they did last night and showed what they were capable of.

-my favorite play of the season was earl everett's helmet-less sack of mr. heisman

-i have heard unconfirmed reports that Ginn was injured on the celebration <-----HA
it seemed that Ginn's condition deteriorated as time went on, he went from taped-up jogging back out on the field, to wearing a boot, to standing on crutches, i was looking to see him on a operating table by the end of the game

-the stupid yellow "tostitos" logo in the top right of the screen made me think there was a penalty on most plays

-Dave Adams streak of going to every gator football game- home, away, and bowl since '94 lives on.

Congratulations to my friends Danny Hogan and official MCLA photographer Dave Adams for a stunning win by their Florida Gators.

Must have been a fun game to watch as a Gators fan, since they were in control nearly the entire game. My favorite part of the broadcast was the juxtaposition of Florida fans and Ohio State fans in the crowd shots. Seeing the jubilant Gators patrons in the stands, cheering, laughing, embracing in joy, and then watching as the camera panned over to the sea of red and white; stunned, motionless, kids crying, students cursing and yelling. Wow. Everything uplifting and crushing about sports in one clear shot.

Florida has really been on a roll this year. NCAA Men's Football AND Basketball champions. What else is left? Will this inspire men's lax to take the SELC and make a run for the MCLA championship? Only time will tell....

Florida exploited the Ohio State linebackers like nobody's business. Florida was running no back sets with 5 wide-outs, and each time at least 2 of those wide-outs were being covered by the slowest members of the Ohio State secendary. It's no wonder that Florida was spreading the ball around as they were simply spreading it to whoever was under the Ohio State secendary. Each pass play was 6-12 yards it seemed...

I cannot believe Ohio State did not have an answer for that. They seemed like they didn't want to be there... that is, with the exception of the guy who doted the "I" in Script Ohio... he was living the dream, baby.

Just read Terry Bowden's column in which he stated that Ohio State played with no emotions and with no intensity whereas the Gators exhibited both attitudes.
