The Gators beat 2 Heisman Trophy QB's to win 2 National Championships, shut down the #1 scoring offense in their last 2 National Championships, and was rated #2 in all three of their National Championship wins. They held FSU to 20 points, Ohio State to 14 points (7 from offense only), and Oklahoma to 14 points (41 points under their average). GO GATORS!
I watched this game with my fanatic great grandfather in his house in Ocala, which looked like a Gators museum, as a child. Made me a Gator and a football fan that day.
I knew I wasn't crazy... I remember watching this and being dumbfounded that the announcers didn't even talk about the BLATANT HOLD on Reggie Nelsons shoulder pad during the opening kickoff.
I was in a walmart in chipley florida. I saw a UF fan, wearing a tim tebow jersey. And then i heard an actual adult man scream, "OH!! IO". And then he said, "any other day we beat yall in 2006, yall got lucky".
That was when i learned that it was possible for a fan base to be dumber than the miami fan base.
Yall please don't forget. That all of those Ohio state fans and ESPN. Said the Gators didn't have a chance. In their eyes. We already lost this game. Go Gators. Js
