      <description><![CDATA[Wait ‘til next year. For decades that was the rallying cry of the Florida Gators, who came close many times but never won a Southeastern Conference championship that counts in the record books until 1991 in the second year of Steve Spurrier’s 12-year run as the Florida head coach. Since 1990, the Gators have won eight SEC championships and three national championships, the best run of any team in the league. During that 19-year span, Florida is 189-51-1, a full 14 wins ahead of second place Tennessee.]]></description>

      <title>Florida&#8217;s depth chart: running backs</title>

      <guid>http://www.gatorcountry.com/football/article/floridas_depth_chart_running_backs/6643#When:16:03:00Z</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[When it comes to pure speed, nobody in the country has faster running backs that the Florida Gators. What the Gators don’t have, however, is a pound it between the tackles back who can dominate a game in the fourth quarter. If there is such a thing as a glaring weakness on Florida’s 2009 team, that’s it right there.

      <description><![CDATA[This was the game that had been circled for more than a year Florida -- Georgia in Jacksonville. Georgia entered the season favored to win a national championship, but by the time the Bulldogs left Jacksonville Municipal Stadium, they were scrambling to secure a spot in the Capital One Bowl. From Brandon Spikes' bone-jarring de-cleating of Knowshon Moreno to Tim Tebow's domination on the offensive end, the Gators made a statement as they walked away with a 49-10 win that left no doubt Florida was indeed the Beast of the SEC East]]></description>

      <guid>http://www.gatorcountry.com/football/article/floridas_depth_chart_the_quarterbacks/6638#When:17:35:00Z</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[With Tim Tebow as the starter and John Brantley as the backup, the Florida Gators are as strong at the quarterback position as any team in the Southeastern Conference. Beyond those two, however, there are concerns with depth. The Gators will carry only three scholarship quarterbacks on the roster in 2009.]]></description>

      <title>Best in SEC: running backs</title>

      <guid>http://www.gatorcountry.com/football/article/best_in_sec_running_backs/6637#When:02:50:00Z</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[The Southeastern Conference might not have many household names at the running back position, but from top to bottom, the league has plenty of talented and versatile backs. With the increased emphasis on spread formations, there should be no lack of productivity in the SEC this year and few leagues can match the overall speed with burners like Jeff Demps and Trindon Holliday on hand.]]></description>

      <title>ACK: Gators biggest challenges in West</title>

      <guid>http://www.gatorcountry.com/football/article/ack_gators_biggest_challenges_in_west/6633#When:21:24:00Z</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[It appears that the top challengers for Florida in the SEC may come from the West in 2009. Most preseason magazines and polls believe Alabama, Ole Miss and LSU are top fifteen teams heading into the season. While I have been on record as saying UF should coast through the East there is not really any team in the SEC that does not look flawed. Alabama must establish an offensive line. Ole Miss has never been there and must improve in the back seven. LSU only beat two teams in the regular season in 2008 that had winning records. If those teams are top fifteen teams then you know the rest of the East has its flaws. ]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[A national championship in football led a program-record tying 12 Gator athletic teams among the nation’s top 10 in 2008-09 national competition, propelling the University of Florida to a third place finish in the 2008-09 Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup. The finish matches the second-highest for the Gator program, second only to Florida’s tie for second in the 1998-99 standings.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Maybe you could call it bragging, but more accurately you might say it’s a case of giving props when Urban Meyer starts talking about the Fourth Quarter Domination by his 2008 national champion Florida Gators. He’s so proud of it that he even commissioned a poster-like display bearing those words on the weight room wall.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Sit back, crack a cool one and watch these High Def highlights exclusive only to GatorCountry.com members.  Relive the big victory, in a big game, with big name players.  It was a fun game to watch and even a better game to shoot. Tim Tebow threw two touchdown passes, ran for two scores and Florida used two blocked punts to pile up a 63-5 rout over the Wildcats. Check it out and enjoy.  Keep coming back we will get through the summer......

      <guid>http://www.gatorcountry.com/football/article/best_in_sec_the_quarterbacks/6625#When:03:26:00Z</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[From top to bottom, this might be the most inexperienced group of quarterbacks the Southeastern Conference has sent on the field in quite a few years. Take away Florida’s All-Planetary Tim Tebow and Jevan Snead of Ole Miss, who would be the best quarterback in the conference in at least eight conferences, and it’s slim pickings at the start of the year. The league is blessed with some of the best quarterback coaches and creative offensive minds, however, so by year’s end, this should be a position of strength for the SEC.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[There really isn’t any need to argue which is the best football league in the country. That’s the SEC. All the proof you need is four national championships (LSU 2003, Florida 2006, LSU 2007, Florida  2008) and a 13-0 team (Auburn 2004) in the past six years. There is a good reason why the league is so good. All you have to do is look at the head coaches and the coaching staffs.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[The promises were made 21 years and half a world apart. The first promise was made in The Philippines in late 1986 by a dad praying for a son when he wasn’t even sure his wife was pregnant. The impact of that prayer and promise is still being felt today but never more than it was in the days and weeks that followed September 30, 2008. That’s when the son who was the answer to prayer some 21 years before, made a promise of his own, one that will forever occupy an important place in college football history.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[When LSU came to The Swamp on October 11, it was billed as an elimination game for the Gators --- win or else they could kiss away whatever title hopes they were holding onto. Starting with a Tim Tebow to Percy Harvin bomb that covered 70 yards, the Gators poured it on in the first quarter to take a 17-0 lead. It was 20-7 at the half, but when LSU scored on its opening possession of the second half to close the gap to six, the capacity crowd held its breath. That's when Tim Tebow took the game over. Florida scored 21 straight points and turned this into the biggest loss in Les Miles' career at LSU. Florida's 51-21 victory put the Gators clearly back into the national championship race.]]></description>

During Florida’s 2008 national championship run, guys like Jeff Demps, Aaron Hernandez, Ahmad Black and Janoris Jenkins came off the radar to produce terrific seasons. The Gators will need those X-factor types again this year, but the most glaring hole that will have to be filled is the loss of Percy Harvin.
