7:30?? Thank God! Dont have to sweat my tail off during another game!

orlandogator · 10-13-2009, 09:35 AM

by the 24th you should be seeing 75 degree weather.

Any ideas where any Gators will be looking to tailgate? I came across Mississippi State's fan guide and posted a link below. It appears as though there are 2 fairly decent size lots to choose from. I'm just curious if anyone has been out there before and if there are any recommended spots.

It's officially game Mississippi State game week. Hopefully, the Arkansas game was our wake-up call. Couple this with the team dropping to #2 in the AP poll, I look for the kids to be MUCH more focused in Starkville. I pray that Spikes' groin injury is our only distraction leading up to the game.

PTCGator · 10-18-2009, 03:15 PM

The weekly forecast calls for a high next Saturday (in Starkville, MS) of 59 degrees. By game time it will be down in the low 50's. Should be great football weather. Let's hope the team enjoys that weather and plays a great game. They are due!

Thanks for the good news about the starting time, yours truly is now On My Way To See The Gators Play!

Would have missed this one if it was a day-afternoon game.

MATEEN · 10-18-2009, 03:21 PM

Sigh...

Dan Mullen will read us like a book.

Nonetheless, I hope we blow out Miss St. in order to send a message to the rest of that nation. 50+ points would be nice.

RayGator · 10-21-2009, 12:10 AM

I'm sure most have noticed we have passed the half way point in the regular season and the Gators are still undefeated!

Go Gators!

The_Graygator · 10-21-2009, 12:32 PM

And we will still be undefeated after the game is over in Starkville and the Gators hang over 35 points on the Bulldogs.

What I want to see is at least 17 first half points by the Gators. 21 points and I'd be very happy.

Spikes is probable.

Marsh, Howard, and Trattou are doubtful. Luckily, we're deep and versatile at DT this year, and that's a good thing.

Gators will roll in Starkville.

Only thing I don't like about this game is that is that it's a night game on the road, and we have to wait all damn day for it to start... but at least it isn't on CBS.

Good luck guys.. If we don't beat you this weekend I'll be rooting for you to finish this season undefeated the rest of the season and knock off those redneck trash hillbilly's living on a dead bear and a classless coach.

Safe travels to all driving up.. looks like some nice weather for the game, a little on the cooler side though.

Will ANOTHER #12 run for 170+ yards and pull the upset of the century for MSU, or will the Gators finally win for the first time in starkville since before most of the players on the field were born.

g8rfan22 · 10-21-2009, 08:27 PM

Go Gators!!

Bazza · 10-21-2009, 09:24 PM

I look at this game as significant in showing what adjustments were made given the offensive performance issues last weekend.

I'd love to see some slant and screen plays along with some more long pass plays for TD's.

And while we are on the subject of a wish-list - let's shoot for ZERO turnovers!

Amen to THAT brother!

Thanks for the welcome Scuba. Same sentiments here about lying Nick. See you in Starkville.

RayGator · 10-22-2009, 07:17 PM

For whatever it means the Gators are now a 23 point favorite.

bmas05 · 10-22-2009, 07:33 PM

I like the inside joke there in the first post Ray. Classic!

Thanks Ray....that's AWESOME news! I'm not at all concerned about the Gators being over-confident for this game. That was last week and is ancient history.
