2009 FINAL The #1 Florida Gators 29 vs. The Mississippi State Bulldogs 19

[Gator_in_TX]

Great play by Tebow, but the play calling is abysmal. What happens when we play teams that actually have a good defense?

[tilly]

Tebow 64 yards rushing already. He is going to outrush Ingram today...LOL!

[gators_8]

wow that was one hell of a run

[orlandogator]

Our running will wear them down in time and at some point open up passing. We just need to 3-and-out them on defense.

[Dreamliner]

Just score before we get to the redzone. that's all i'm saying.

[RealGatorFan]

Only way to score a TD is stay out of the red zone. We'll take it.

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

The end zone!!!!

It's a beautiful thing!!!!

[topping21]

You know I should be a Defensive coordinator for whomever we play I would put 11 guys to key tebow and wouldnt worry about the rest of the team. Plus I can make hundred of thousands of dollars.

[Dreamliner]

Tebow is a more complete team than Bama.

[g8rfan22]

Hernandez.

+1

After a few more drinks I may be the next to be corrected...

[raycgator]

Just slam the door on msu... Kinda wanna watch a game to analyze, instead of almost having a heart attack like last week

[Norcaligator]

Hernandez.

Der. If you lurked as much as I do, you would have caught why I said Fernandez.

[topping21]

We need to save the record breaker for next week against the Pups.


No way he is 90% of the offense tonight we save it for UGA we will only have 10 points tonight

[RealGatorFan]

Ok now we need another 3 and out and get Moody and gang out there. Give Tim a rest.

[GatorFanCF]

What really BOTHERS me is that we're not as COMPLETE as Alabama, the #1 team.
They can kick short, medium, and long field goals.
Unfortunately, we just scored a touchdown having to now only kick an extra point.
If only we could aspire to Bama's greatness.

[orlandogator]

off topic, does anyone else watch yaho rivals score board, you refresh the page and the scores pop up and then 2 seconds later revert back to 0-0

[tilly]

Great play by Tebow, but the play calling is abysmal. What happens when we play teams that actually have a good defense?


WE have 161 total yards already...What do you want?

[jibmonk]

Whats up with these weak kickoffs?

[CBGator87]

Ahhhhh

FU Lindsay Scott

[pavelow]

Why are they showing Run Lindsey Run??

[jjmaines]

notice we didn't have to look to the sideline for that play.

at least 2 bad snaps on 3rd down. one cost us 4 points.

[BKING27]

Great play by Tebow, but the play calling is abysmal. What happens when we play teams that actually have a good defense?I disagree. IMO we look like we actually know what we're trying to do in this game on offense, we're not having as many stagnant no gainer dive plays. and IMO we look like we may be finally starting to develop an offensive identity. again just my opinion and of course we are playing MSU so that could be helping

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

What has happened to our special teams this year?

[malligator]

Why did they just show Lindsey Scott?

[topping21]

What really BOTHERS me is that we're not as COMPLETE as Alabama, the #1 team.
They can kick short, medium, and long field goals.
Unfortunately, we just scored a touchdown having to now only kick an extra point.
If only we could aspire to Bama's greatness.


Somebody didnt watch the UT Bama game today Bama did not score a TD and their number 1 Defense almost got beat by UT

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

DEFENSE!!!

[rjGator]

Hello.

[slinkygator]

nice D

[RealGatorFan]

PANCAKE!!!!!!

[co_gator89]

Nice play Sanders.

[CBGator87]

Is anyone else having issues with the HD channel? Mine looks like crap.

[gatordavisl]

Why the hell did they have to show that UGA crap?

[tilly]

4 starters out, and we are shutting them down on D.

[rjGator]

4th dn.

[floralagator]

And here's the Lindsey Scott promo.....God can't they ever bury that thing!!!!!

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Awesome time for a 3 and out!

[gators_8]

3 and out

[RealGatorFan]

Mine looks good.

[topping21]

MSU is starting to fold we can start to put this game away if we really want to

[endabcs]

WE have 161 total yards already...What do you want?

One mellioon touchdowns, muwahhhhahhhaaaa, muahahahahaahaha, muahahahahaha

[g8rfan22]

WE have 161 total yards already...What do you want?

I'd give you rep for that one Tilly, but apparently I need to spread it around...

[Spurffelbow833]

I'm telling you, we need to try that bad snap more often. It worked better than about anything else we've tried.

[Norcaligator]

Glad to see the Chicken Littles stepped away.

[topping21]

Our Special teams have not been so special this year. I wonder why Meyer is hold off going after blocks this year?

[RealGatorFan]

That punt return didn't look good. Brandon makes me nervous when he catches the ball in traffic.

[tommyuf21]

Why are they showing Run Lindsey Run??

It may be heresy to say this, but who cares anymore?

[topping21]

I'm telling you, we need to try that bad snap more often. It worked better than about anything else we've tried.

Kinda like faking a handoff to the running back without the running back

[tilly]

Dont they know that CBS will show that Lindsey Scott play 100 times next week...2nd only to the number of times they show the celebration.....*sigh*

[CBGator87]

One mellioon touchdowns, muwahhhhahhhaaaa, muahahahahaahaha, muahahahahaha

http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/sports/specialevents/blog/Dr.%20Evil.jpg

[Lawdog88]

I'm telling you, we need to try that bad snap more often. It worked better than about anything else we've tried.


Was it a called play, or a bust on the wide pitch?

[swg8trgr8]

4 starters out, and we are shutting them down on D.


who are the other two besides spikes and trattou??

[EbSaxman]

I'd like to see some passing but with a lead it makes more sense to just ram it down their throats. Hopefully the defense can keep it up, they look good tonight.

[raycgator]

Teams don't really like to throw deep at us. So I get scared when they actually do cus it might be because of a blown coverage

[Dreamliner]

The national media is devasted by the near Bama loss, so they had no recourse but to trot out the Lindsey Scott tape.

[g8rfan22]

I'm telling you, we need to try that bad snap more often. It worked better than about anything else we've tried.

The bad snap was a designed play...ok...maybe not, but it worked!

[topping21]

Got a call from my buddy at UGA and he said Richt as all the players watching this game at the football media complex (Film Room)

[g8rfan22]

false start

[Maroon_Gator]

Throw the bomb!

[EbSaxman]

Is anyone else having issues with the HD channel? Mine looks like crap.

I have FIOS. Looks ok. Not the clearest picture I've seen, though. Probably too much signal compression.

[g8rfan22]

Move the chains.....

[slinkygator]

Nice play

[tilly]

81!!!

[rjGator]

Nice. 1st dn.

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

OMG!! A screen pass!!!

[nonpc]

FINALLY over the middle to the TE.

[Spurffelbow833]

So Tebow ties Walker's record, and they somehow see the relevance in paying homage to Larry Munson and Lindsey Scott for the 20,280,372,385,607,237th time. Nice. And we get to watch it again next week, of course.

[rjGator]

Nice catch.

[g8rfan22]

Comcast HD looks great..

[slinkygator]

Nice catch and run by coop

[slinkygator]

Bright House HD is fine

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Starting to mix it up a little on offense, looks good

[g8rfan22]

Deep to Deonte...

[CBGator87]

Got a call from my buddy at UGA and he said Richt as all the players watching this game at the football media complex (Film Room)

Which is called the Butts-Mehre complex.

heh heh....Butt Smear....eh heh heh

[tilly]

who are the other two besides spikes and trattou??

I was including the 3 regular rotation D-Line guys and Spikes,

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

MOODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!

[g8rfan22]

Moooooooooody!!!!!

[swg8trgr8]

moooooodddyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!

[slinkygator]

MOOOOODY

[topping21]

Moody has a good run He is done for the night

[rjGator]

Driving........

[jibmonk]

I think the coaches finally get it. They might actually see the light now with Moody getting more carries.

[slinkygator]

Its Rainyyyyyyyyyy

[EbSaxman]

Which is called the Butts-Mehre complex.

heh heh....Butt Smear....eh heh heh

Seriously? That's pretty funny!

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Friggin' WOW!!!

[co_gator89]

I smell a record comin on.

[rjGator]

Nice run.

[g8rfan22]

I make it Rain...

[topping21]

Tebow Time

[tilly]

Rainey in Mississippi tonight.

[jibmonk]

I predict a Moody TD here.

[orlandogator]

that play does not work. jeez, dont do it.

[topping21]

Geez who would have thought our Pass Protection would break down

[rjGator]

2nd and goal...

[BKING27]

something seems off with Rainey to me and has for a few games now. I don't think he's injured or anything but he just doesn't seem the same. Does anyone else think so?

[raycgator]

Darn, the RED ZONE

[slinkygator]

dont sstall now

[rjGator]

3rd dn...

[topping21]

Play action, reverse anything

[EbSaxman]

Hmmmm .... Tebow may have gotten a little greedy there. Should have given the ball up.

[g8rfan22]

Looked like Tim wanted to smack that guy...

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

damn red zone

[rjGator]

4th dn.

[gatormark89]

UGGGHHHH...Redzone!

[Gator_in_TX]

Garbage play calling!!!!!

[Dreamliner]

Staggering impotence in the redzone.

[Yankeegator7]

WOW!?!?@$##@@$!%#@!%!^!$^!#$$!#$!%^!^$!@!$$!@#$

[slinkygator]

had to throw it away...4th down

[topping21]

those will come back and get you against a good team

[CBGator87]

Snake bit in the red zone.

[RealGatorFan]

Awful red zone offense...by far as ugly as I've seen since 1980.

[Spurffelbow833]

Another red zone meltdown. Dammit!

[HALLGATOR]

That is nothing but receivers who can't get open.

[co_gator89]

We are terrified of the goal line guys.

[raycgator]

Sad

[Norcaligator]

Another nice drive by the Gators.

[rjGator]

FG good.

13-3 UF.

[GladesGator80]

What is wrong with us in the redzone?

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

The next time we get in the red zone, we need to take a couple of delays and back up outside the 20.

[topping21]

should be 21+ to 3

[tilly]

236 yards of offense.

[The_Graygator]

Finally back.

I saw Meyer laughing on the sideline after that 3rd down play.

Mullen knows pretty much what we're going to do most of the time, but I have to admit that middle screen pass to AH was pretty good.

We're also mixing up our play calls on first and third downs too trying to keep Mullen off guard.

[Gator_in_TX]

Are we alergic to an i formation????!!!!

[gatormark89]

Happy to be up...

I would love to see Moody get the ball near the goal line some time.

[RealGatorFan]

Why no Moody inside the 10???? I'm no coach but after watching Tim try this 50 times this year for maybe 5 TDs, I think I'm trying something else.

[topping21]

We are officially affraid of the redzone. Maybe it has a disease or something contagious

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

236 yards of offense.

Yea we can move the ball but the end zone is like the black death.

[Zen_Gator]

What is the Viagra that we can give the offense for Zed Zone play?

[orlandogator]

You want to rethink that prediction?

When will they take a hike under center, hand off to moody or fake it,then you have a reciever or open running.

[SECund2nun]

USE MOODY IN THE REDZONE.

Why the hell do they only run Tebow in the redzone!

[mdgator01]

Better play calling than usual. We are waiting until inside the 10 yard line to make bad play calls. Frankly, I prefer that to making them at the beginning of the drive. This way, we keep our defense fresher.

[tilly]

Garbage play calling!!!!!

Why? Because the receivers cant get open? Do you watch football? Th eplay calling has been fine. WE CANT GET OPEN!

[Gator_in_TX]

What is the definition of insanity?

[jjmaines]

i'm screwed...no dvr so i can't get replays at will.

was there not 2 guys in white open right on the line?

i could be wrong of course

[topping21]

Why Does Meyer take out moody all the time????

[The_Graygator]

Garbage play calling!!!!!



Hardly.

We're being forced to mix up our play selection because Mullen is guessing what we're going to do.

This will come down to pure execution. UF already have 158 rushing yards, 13 unanswered points so far.

UF 235 total yards to MSU's 71.

[GatorLaw]

I know the coaches aren't stupid, I know they understand the game better than I do. But I just don't understand why, when we have a big, power running RB, we don't at least once - just once - try him near the goal line.

[SECund2nun]

Why no Moody inside the 10???? I'm no coach but after watching Tim try this 50 times this year for maybe 5 TDs, I think I'm trying something else.

The coaches know best...... how dare you say anything against their gameplan :roll:

signed all sunshine pumpers on this board

[jibmonk]

Awful red zone offense...by far as ugly as I've seen since 1980.

Wow thats really saying something there.

[rjGator]

Alright D.

[RealGatorFan]

We miss Jenkins on ST.....someone will run one back on us at some time this year.

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Another bad special teams play. What is going on there?

[Gator_in_TX]

I do watch football and our offense is utterly predicitible. Why not use Moody when he is more than proven he is effective.

[Dreamliner]

What has happened to our kick coverage ? Didn't Meyer say we were going to see the 'Freak Show' ?

[raycgator]

Frustrating that we can't punch it in. Why don't they use the RBs there more often

[SECund2nun]

Why? Because the receivers cant get open? Do you watch football? Th eplay calling has been fine. WE CANT GET OPEN!

Why? Because everyone knows Tebow will carry the ball in the redzone and they still refuse to give it to our only other power runner Moody.

[GatorFanCF]

topping: my comment about 'Bama was related to the thread during the UT/Bama game when Verne kept gushing about how "complete" Bama is. It was sarcasm.

[rjGator]

3rd and 9.

[gatormark89]

Do I recall correctly that our OC doesn't make the redzone calls? If that is the case...maybe we need to reconsider that strategy.

[Dreamliner]

How about a defensive TD ? Remember those ?

[topping21]

Our special teams are not very good and up to Meyers standards. Something tells me Our line play is not very good because of Addazio having more to worry about and our Special Team play is because Meyer needs to be more involved with the offense

[rjGator]

SACK!

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Defense is taking over!!!

[CBGator87]

It's easy to mix up poor playcalling and poor execution. We've had the right ideas tonight, but no one is getting open.

[rjGator]

4th dn.

[dnewhous]

I didn't realize their quarterback was a midget. Our saving grace.

[TravelingGator]

Frustrating that we can't punch it in. Why don't they use the RBs there more often


A puzzling question ndeed

[CBGator87]

Yes, it's nice not playing against a radio tower QB for once.

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

How about a defensive TD ? Remember those ?

I do. We've been needing those of late.

[TravelingGator]

I didn't realize their quarterback was a midget. Our saving grace.


Midget throwing on a sack?:laugh:

[BKING27]

Why? Because everyone knows Tebow will carry the ball in the redzone and they still refuse to give it to our only other power runner Moody.
if you want moody to run it at least realize that with tebow running it we get an extra blocker

[Donzo]

The coaches know best...... how dare you say anything against their gameplan :roll:

signed all sunshine pumpers on this board

you power whiners sure do love your victim status.... awful

[HALLGATOR]

Time for another TD.

[RealGatorFan]

The reason why ST has looked bad lately is the loss of Jenkins on ST. He was the speed and hammer and usually pinned the returner deep. He got a concussion in the Kentucky game.

[TravelingGator]

if you want moody to run it at least realize that with tebow running it we get an extra blocker


I think some are concerned with maybe some creative issues and player selection in the red zone.

[EbSaxman]

I can understand the frustration. Tebow really isn't that good at running the ball in the red zone. How many rushing TD's had the guy got in his career ... like 5? Why do we keep trying to run him in the red zone? Frustrating.

[Zen_Gator]

Ok. Time to stop messing around

[Gator_in_TX]

There goes Moody again.

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Moody's 4th run. That's a season high isn't it?

[gatormark89]

Great to see Mood getting more carries! Way to earn it...

[swg8trgr8]

i know this is a stupid question, but what does mick hubert say on some of those deep TD passes to hernandez and cooper?? something about "quarintine"??? anyone??

[TravelingGator]

I can understand the frustration. Tebow really isn't that good at running the ball in the red zone. How many rushing TD's had the guy got in his career ... like 5? Why do we keep trying to run him in the red zone? Frustrating.


Very frustrating, if we didn't have a lead it would be downright agonizing

[slinkygator]

Moody and Rainy!! Nice drive going

[g8rfan22]

Moody is on fire...

[Donzo]

state has that gruden bucs/raiders super bowl thing going for them a bit... some totally differnt looks would be cool.... but, its not that big of an issue----- yet

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Tim throw it away

[BKING27]

obviously no one is getting open but Tim's gotta throw it away as 1 point or another

[CBGator87]

Freaking scramble there!

[jibmonk]

Tebow what the heck! That is all on him.

[Dreamliner]

That sack was just pure stubbornness.

[Matthanuf06]

Hardly.

We're being forced to mix up our play selection because Mullen is guessing what we're going to do.

This will come down to pure execution. UF already have 158 rushing yards, 13 unanswered points so far.

UF 235 total yards to MSU's 71.

I disagree.

The better play calling is because we've been so predictable previously and has nothing to do with Mullen. In previous games all the defenders, the opposing DC, and a few children knew every play we were running. THAT'S why we are changing it
up.

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

No wonder we keep running the ball, our passing game is anemic.

[CBGator87]

okay, 4th and inches at the 50...do you go for it?

[gatormark89]

GO FOR IT...please!

[tilly]

FAKE IT.

[CBGator87]

okay, nice punt to the 8-yard line. I'll take it.

[BKING27]

still a damn good effort by Moody. I guess if you're going to praise Tebow for all the impromptu runs where he makes something great happen you can't get mad when he get's sacked holding the ball too long......though it's still frustrating when it happens

[SECund2nun]

if you want moody to run it at least realize that with tebow running it we get an extra blocker

The extra blocker does seem to help at all anyways. Moody needs to carry it.

[slinkygator]

Nice coverage on that kick

[rjGator]

Good coverage.

[Dreamliner]

*sighs* Okay, maybe we can grind out another victory tonight.

[slinkygator]

Great D on 1st down

[CBGator87]

Thank goodness MSU is a whole lot worse on offense than Arkansas.

[tilly]

We should use out timeouts.

[g8rfan22]

D up!

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

*sighs* Okay, maybe we can grind out another victory tonight.

That's all we got

[SECund2nun]

you power whiners sure do love your victim status.... awful

So that's what you call a realist huh?

[slinkygator]

3rd down come on d

[tilly]

We should use out timeouts.

I repeat...

[slinkygator]

D holds woO HOO

[rjGator]

4th dn.

[CBGator87]

And another 3 and out. Way to go, D.

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Defense....stellar

[g8rfan22]

Take it to the house Brandon James....

[jibmonk]

The worst part about having to grind it out every game is that our younger players don't get the PT they normally would be getting. This is especially a concern when you think Brantley hasn't got much run this year.

[g8rfan22]

Nice...

[tilly]

GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rjGator]

BLOCK!

[CBGator87]

There's the special teams we've been looking for!!!!!!!

[gatormark89]

YESSSSS!!!

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Finally got one!!!!!!!!!!!!

[slinkygator]

Blocked kick

thats what im talking about

[RealGatorFan]

Hehehe block....

[BKING27]

bout time we've seen a block punt. Go Gators!!!!!!!!

[Spurffelbow833]

If we settle for a field goal here, I'm breaking the TV.

[DPTGator]

Should be happy.... but now we get to see the red zone offense

[RealGatorFan]

Red Zone tho...

[pavelow]

Put it in the endzone!

[Gatorguy]

YES!! Blocked punt! Let's punch it in now.

[The_Graygator]

I disagree.

The better play calling is because we've been so predictable previously and has nothing to do with Mullen. In previous games all the defenders, the opposing DC, and a few children knew every play we were running. THAT'S why we are changing it
up.



:laugh: I stand corrected.

[GladesGator80]

Yes! but OMG we are in the redzone

[rjGator]

1st and goal......

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Uh oh, we're in the "red zone"

[slinkygator]

2nds and goal

[Zen_Gator]

That's horrendous.

[jibmonk]

We are inside the 10 lets just run the clock down and kick it. Not like we can score a TD anyways.

[g8rfan22]

My HD is breaking up...

[HALLGATOR]

Terrible clock management and poor play selection in the Red Zone.

[tilly]

He was down...

[BKING27]

I'm gonna call a rollout pass/run play for Tebow or just basic option play

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

I predict we win 25-3.......4 more FG's

[mdgator01]

Have we even tried to run it outside with anybody but Tebow inside the 10?

[RealGatorFan]

Line Hernadez in the backfield and have Tim and Moody block for him to the endzone.

[co_gator89]

I think when Mullen left our program, he took the playbook with him.

[Zen_Gator]

I predict the bunch formation and Tebow runs into the pile. He may carry everyone into the endzone

[The_Graygator]

If we settle for a field goal here, I'm breaking the TV.



Don't break the t.v. Spurf.

Gator D right now has held MSU to 0 - 5 on third downs.

We've got MSU shaken now.

It'll come. Just be patient.

[raycgator]

HAhaha Da U lost to Clemmons

[Donzo]

We are inside the 10 lets just run the clock down and kick it. Not like we can score a TD anyways.

How much is UF losing by?

[DPTGator]

3rd and goal.....

[RealGatorFan]

The line gets pushed back into Tim on every pass play. Weak. Simply weak.

[Yankeegator7]

Something is seriously wrong. This needs to be fixed and fast!!!

[tilly]

Its not play calling fellas....It is execution. Can no one on this tam get open?

[jibmonk]

Once again we are by far and away the better team, but we just cannot put them away. This is getting ridiculous.

[NOTgaGATORanymore]

Please just take 3 delay of game penalties and get the hell out of the red zone.

[swg8trgr8]

why would we call a timeout with 45 seconds left in the half????

[gatormark89]

Unbelievable..come on guys!

[RealGatorFan]

If I'm defending us....I'd get us inside the 10.

[McCloskey22]

we're winning cuz of our special teams and defense again..man adazio has me frustrated

[nonpc]

I think when Mullen left our program, he took the playbook with him.Unfortunately this seems to be true.

[orlandogator]

Why arent they going spread option here? jeez, spread out the defense then just beat one guy. who is the play caller?

[DPTGator]

Please just take 3 delay of game penalties and get the hell out of the red zone.

that would be brilliant!
