You don’t know too much about SEC football, huh? Auburn owns UF and I think Bama took them to the wood shed and showed the Gators what smash mouth football is all about a couple months ago. Bama completely dismantled UF in the SECCG.

how do you expect us to compete when our players can’t even see. I guess it’s win at all costs and taking away someones eyesight especially the #1 RB is bad.

I love Auburn and we don’t even have to try and gouge someones eye out to whip Gators under CUM 100% of the time. Now that I think of it we don’thave to call time outs when we are up by 4 touchdowns and we don’t run up and down the sidelines waving a towel like a third grader or cry like a baby when we lose. Or I should say if we ever did lose we wouldn’t cry which we don’t to the cheatin gators.

Spikes is simply a scumbag, and Urban isn’t any better.Yes, these things happen at the bottom of piles on occasion, but this was out in the open,showing that Spikes has no class. It will be funny to see Urban cry next year when he loses 3 games. He will probably quit for real (what a joke that was this year) in the next 12-16 months anyway. Kind of reminds me of Miami a few years ago……

The shameful thing, besides the senseless act of Spike’s retaliation itself, is it has allowed the Bulldogs to focus (sorry about the play on words) on that one play and be outraged instead of being outraged at the sorry job their team and the coaching staff did that day. I remember 07 when the Dogs danced in the endzone and while I didn’t like that classless act, I still remember how angry I was at our team after that game. Yes, UGA was the better team that year, but we layed down late in that game and embarrased ourselves with OUR play and there’s never an excuse for that.

I was there and also watched the replay about 5 times and I will tell you that neither side should be proud about some of the stuff going on in that game. You could tell from that very first play that the UGA players were sending a “message” that they were not going to be intimidated .And some of the UF players, like Spikes, went overboard in their response. That was the dirtiest played game I’ve ever witnessed and both side deserve equal blame.

I’m not sure what worse, the eye gouging, or Urban Meyer’s lack of discipline.

What goes around comes around.

Revealing the character of Florida as his defensive Captain, and revealing the LACK of character, when he’s getting beat, to try and eye gouge an opponent to level the playing field.

If I recall, the UGA players had hit him so hard his helmet had come off 5 or 6 times.

His decision to try and blind a fellow player and end that player’s career, as he was getting his helmet popped off every 2 or 3 plays, revealed serious character issues.

That decision cost him millions. Probably a million a year over 5 years.

haha…so Golic is the voice of reason now? How about his comments:

In fact in a USA Today story of a few years ago, Golic seemed to be almost bragging about choking a player at the bottom of a pileup.
Golic said “anything goes” in a pileup and described a situation where an opposing player was laying on top of one of his teammates.

“I reached down and I started choking the guy; I just started squeezing,” Golic told USA Today. “I was just, as we like to say, getting his attention.”

so what? that tells me that

a) Florida was so far ahead of everyone that they had to pass the ball
b) Florida stuffed everyone with a 3 and out more than anyone
c) Curran being the leading tackler in the SEC tells me that everyone in the conference knew they could run all day on UGA’s defense. And they got first down, after first down. And they scored around 37 pts per game on this defense.

Greg,

Did you say everyone is 2-7 against the gators not just Georgia? Not quite. Auburn has held their own and was 2-0 against Tebow. We’ve won 4 of the last 6 against the gators from 1999-2009. The Mississippi teams have held their own against the gators. I think each of the Miss schools has won something like 3 games each against the gators in the last 20 years and that’s having played them only 6 or maybe 8 times each. The gators have been the best team in the sec since the inception of the 2 division format but they haven’t been completely dominant against everyone else.

Tebow said “We didn’t do anything Georgia didn’t do if you watch the film”

So Tebow found nothing WRONG with Brandon Spike’s behavior. Tebow’s draft status should suffer too.

Both men can’t tell right from wrong apparently. Here’s the video Tebow and Spike’s defended:

On top of that it was kind of disturbing to see Tebow defend the actions of Spikes with some nonsense about both teams were doing it.

I think Every Florida player other than Tim Tebow is complete trash. I wish someone would have taken Spikes outside of the stadium and beat him blue. If all of you remember, not only did the douche bag try to gouge out Ealey’s eyes, but Georgia’s first drive, first play of the game…… Ealey got the ball and ran it up the gut. When the whistle was blown, Spike’s delivered a helmet to helmet on Ealey and didn’t even get a penalty on him. He and his teammates are the biggest pieces of trash to ever need recycling. I’m glad Bama beat their asses. I wish Cody would have stepped on Spike’s facemask and ground his cleats in his face.

DECLINE IN UGA BULLDOGS’ FOOTBALL OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS

23-11 Alabama vs SEC teams the entire last 4 years

21-12 LSU vs SEC teams the entire last 4 years

20-12 GA vs SEC teams the entire last 4 years

Last 4 years :

48 wins Florida
40 wins LSU
39 wins Alabama
38 wins Georgia Bulldogs

In the last 4 years, 14 losses by Coach Richt
In his last 4 years, 13 losses by Jim Donnan

And, we fired him for it.

Should we discuss Number 21 in wins the last 4 years right behind The Georgia Bulldogs ?

37 wins Texas Tech the last 4 years.

Texas Tech. That is who UGA is ahead of in wins the last 4 years as Texas Tech has 37 wins, one fewer than UGA.

82 fumbles the last 4 years on OFFENSE for UGA.

Spikes’ attempted eye gpouging act was horrific and inexcusable. Those of us who were at that game (both Gator and Dawg fans) could easily see that there were cheap shots by both teams. Thst does not justify Spikes’ act. Easley is a great player, and he seems to be a class act which is good for UGA and the SEC. I fail to understand why so many UGA fans continue to take shots at UF while their team has floundered around in mediocrity for the past 2 years. UGA clobbbered UF in ‘07 because they had a much better team, and they played with heart and determination. Nearly every team in college football has a thug or a potential thug, and both UF and UGA are in this category.
Hopefully, ALL SEC Fans will have a great spring and summer.

I don’t think anyone here really believes Florida will beat Alabama with an inexperienced QB after losing 13 starters and 5 coaches.

Nor does anyone here think the 2 Florida Captains, Tim Tebow, or Brandon Spikes, will be drafted in the 1st round of the NFL. That really says it all. Apparently, the NFL doesn’t agree with the hype about Florida. Tebow will be lucky to get drafted in the 3rd round. Spikes will join him. Wow, what a team.

They just want to make sure he can “turn if off” OFF the field. You know, so they can endorse products to us lily white folk.

Gator fans don’t get it. Scout says the eye gouging raised flags with a number of NFL teams they spoke with.

It will cost him millions. It was dumb.

poopdawg, one can assume that you enjoy very much cage fighting and the blood on the canvas(even they aren’t allowed to gouge eyes). I have always thought that Ray Lewis, if not a NFL football player, would be in jail! Remember his “little” legal problems. I believed someone died in an incident in which he was involved. I like aggression, but I don’t like or approve of thuggery. I was a middle lb for years myself. You can be aggressive without being a thug. Spikes has displayed the latter.

It is a good question to Spikes. Why should a team consider Spikes when he will act with criminal intent during a football game? Character matters, just ask Tank, PacMan, Vick, etc…I don’t think NFL teams are looking for choir boys, but criminals are at the wrong end of the spectrum.

The Spikes ordeal would have had less exposure if Meyer would have handled it differently. half a game suspension against Vandy is hardly a suspension. Meyer’s burshing it to the side very lightly is more of a problem than the eye gouging. I was at the game and Spike’s helmet came off several times during the game and once Spikes had to come offf the field he was hit so hard.
None of these hits were late or blindside hits when he wasn’t looking, they were all man-up hits.
His NFL status will be hurt by his actions but, if I remember correctly Spikes apologized and Ealey accepted his apology.
Time to move on.

Typical Florida fans….bitch, moan and point fingers when some bash’es their team and coach…but they look like fools trying to justify Spikes conduct during the game. Spikes is nothing more than a thug…I’ll bet that he isn’t graduating at the top of his class either. Florida has a way of getting athletes with less than stellar grades in thier school (Lawerence Marsh comes to mind,…. UGA, S.Carolina Clemson,Bama all backed off him because of his poor high school grades…but he got in Florida)They have been letting athletes slide through school for a long time as long as they were contributing to their football program.Spikes is another example of the inmates running the asylum with Meyer as the warden. It eventually will all come crashing down on them and its going to be fun to watch. Florida has plenty to worry about this year…they will lose at least 4-5 games..its gonna happen…and Meyer knows it. I can’t wait for the crying and finger pointing to begin. Can You Dig It!

It is not my approving, it is the NFL that doesn’t like your QB’s.

Doesn’t make Brantley a bad QB, heck he might be the best QB in College next year, but the NFL won’t like him high in the draft. And yes, we will keep CMR and we will beat the Gators again soon but it isn’t about beating the Gators, it is about the body of work. CMR compares with anybody you want to compare him with even the great CUM.

Not an excuse that should be accepted…even against UGA. Character and sportmanship should always rule in all aspects of life and the football field with thousands of fans watching is evan more paramount for proper behavior. All the more so since the game should not promote violence other than proper tackling techniques. That said…if it was bound to happen…better against a school that does not care about building up its students (see Jan Kemp, Physical Education test scandal, or even their lapse of getting a promised insurance policy for a returning player that rejected NFL overtures) than a school that actually attempts to educate its young men at far more than simply 12 Saturday’s per year for four or five years.

Amen to Karl Childers’ first post! Also, he has always been a classless, smack-talking thug, and he should have been called for a penalty after his opening tackle on Moreno 2 years ago. A great hit/play, followed by about 10 seconds of laying on top of him, while head-butting, spitting and gyrating during a serious smack-talk performance. One of many calls we didn’t get, by the way, as we were sent a message by the refs for the celebration the year before. Anyway, I don’t recall tebow lecturing/preaching about how awful spikes’ actions were on either of those occasions. Classless and clueless, win-at-all-costs mentality, which certainly starts with cum and filters down.

Florida is the dirtiest and most classless program in the SEC. They talk more jive and do more showboating in one game than most team’s do in an entire season. We have to respect their many wins, but we do not have to respect the way the conduct themselves both on and off the field. It is quite telling that Spikes even thought he could get away with the eye gouging incident. SEC refs have let these punks get away with murder the past two seasons. It might as well be written in stone in the rule book that excessive celebration penalties do not apply to the Florida Gators. If AJ Green so much as glances at the crowd its 15 yards. If Tim Tebow does a Gator Chomp or Dustin Doe showboats in to the endzone its just competitive young men caught up in the emotion of the game. Its absolutely laughable. Its no wonder that the punks on Florida’s football team think they can get away with anything. They can.

And how in the hell did Spikes get away with it? It was right there in plain view for all the world to see. Unbelievable.

I think this is the year that Meyer’s arrogance finally catches up to him. Good luck with that leave of absence bro. Nobody else in the SEC is on a leave of absence. We’ll see how it works out for you. New QB. An entire defense gone. Maybe not the best time for a leave of absence, but I’m certainly not complaining.

The thing about Spikes’ helmet gettin’ knocked off all those times, it’s not just the hard hits, it’s the fact that he intentionally wears a larger one so those ear-flaps don’t push into his ‘ear-bobs’ and ram the posts into Spikes’ neck. The deal is, whenever he’s on the sidelines – with helmet off – he wants to be sure that if the camera’s on him everybody gets to see his ‘ear-bling’. Those things have got to be $20,000 – that’s assuming they’re not fake – and God knows he couldn’t trust anybody at Florida to look after ‘em for him – I mean those guys steal from one another all the time – plus if he’s constantly puttin’ ‘em on and takin’ ‘em off he’s sure to get caught on camera, and how much of a wuss would that make him? Bound to have gotten at least one question from the NFL on that part.

So he leaves ‘em on and looses his helmet all the time.
