FSU is doing everything possible to lose this game.

We could come back but it's a 3 possession game (35-17) closing in on the end of the 3rd quarter.

End Of An Era: Urban Meyer Steps Down

Quote:

Meyer, 46, informed Florida Athletic Director Jeremy Foley over the weekend that he was contemplating resigning and the two finalized the plan Tuesday. Meyer told the Gators of his decision during a team meeting earlier this afternoon. UF has scheduled a press conference for 6 p.m. at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium where Meyer and Foley will address the media.

Meyer will remain Florida’s head coach through the Outback Bowl in Tampa on New Year’s Day.

What????

Hardly a surprise. He lost the key parts of what made Florida as good as they were, that has shown in the results. He was thinking of retiring last season anyway, but I still think was forced back into it.
The sad fact is, the "Denver Tebows" are creaming their undies at the thought he might come and coach there so their golden boy can play.
I for one pray that doesn't happen or I quit after being a Bronco's fan for 20+ years.

He's not going to coach again for at least two years.

Texas defensive coordinator Will Muschamp is new Florida coach

Quote:

GAINESVILLE - Florida Today has learned that Texas defensive coordinator Will Muschamp has been hired as the new head football coach at the University of Florida.

The Associated Press is also reporting that Muschamp has been hired, citing a source.

Muschamp, who is a 15-year coaching veteran who joined the Longhorns' staff in 2008, will replace Urban Meyer after his sudden resignation on Wednesday. An official announcement is expected shortly from Florida.

Earlier in the day, there was a report Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops was finalizing a deal with the Gators. Stoops denied the rumor.

Muschamp, a Georgia native, had originally agreed to be the coach in waiting and resume the head coaching position at Texas when Mack Brown decides to retire.

Muschamp is considered one of the nation's premier defensive coordinators and was a 2007 Broyles Award Finalist (nation's top assistant coach). He joined the Longhorns' after spending the previous two years as defensive coordinator at Auburn.

In his five years as a coordinator at Auburn and LSU, Muschamp's defenses ranked among the nation's top 10 in total defense five times and scoring defense three times, while ranking in the top 15 in scoring defense the other two.

Not a bad choice. I would have preferred someone with head coaching experience (specifically Chris Petersen), but I think Muschamp will do very well here. And if he doesn't, well, he won't last long. Wink

BTW, Cam Newton won the Heisman in what was a surprise to no one.

Honestly I think I'm going to Go State...I love the Tide and I love the Spartans, but I have to go for the underdog. Bama is going to crush them. So if for some crazy Cousins pulls a game out his ass and wins I can rub it in my wifes face...just before I pack my sleeping bag and tent.

Then again, if the Tide win, I win... and probly win that night too. Wink

Win Win or Lose Lose... Grin

Overtime!

North Carolina 20
Tennessee 20

Mediocre SEC team and mediocre ACC team play sloppy and manage to tie after 60 minutes.

Currently 27-27 in OT.

(Safe move BigTruck. 'Bama is going to clobber Michigan State)
