So today the Florida Fightin' Gators of Gainsville lost a heart-breaker in The Swamp. I was devastated, screaming at the top of my lungs in agony. It all came down to a blocked PAT and a 4th and 1 run up the middle by Tebow. He shoulda done the option. Pitch it to Harvin if needs be and seal the deal with at least two points. But, we lost. We'll just have to live with it, us here in The Gator Nation. A sad defeat to say the least.
However, there is hope. Are we short to remember the National Champion Gators of 2006. They lost a heart-breaker in The Swamp early season to the stupid Auburn Tigers (I hate them and am glad the Gators aren't playing them this year). But, the Gators won the rest of their games, got lucky with a USC loss to UCLA, and wham-bam-thank-you-Pam, we won a Championship. So, I think of this a blessing to The Gator Nation. The loss will only show the tenacity of our players, the optimism and wisdom of our coaches, and the heart and support of the fans in our road to another national championship. When the world looks back on this season, it won't be a perfect one. But, it will be one with that crystal football in the hands of Tim "The Titan" Tebow come January. So enjoy your win, Ole Miss ('Ole' isn't even a word), and we'll enjoy the trophy.
