You're the one arguing they shouldn't have been able to spend the holidays with their family. And there was no other SEC team in a position to replace Florida.

That's usually not the case. And if the coaches felt truly believed it, they still should have planned more than 3 practices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've also had a game every week since Halloween. Just now, Red Wolf said: They just didn't want to be there. Doesn't really work for the team that didn't have six starters opt out.

It only works if you have an SEC patch on your jersey, actually. It's why it's become such a meme. SEC winning bowls proves they're the best, but losing them means that bowls are just exhibitions and don't actually matter. 2 hours ago, See Red said: The head coach himself said they were treating it like a scrimmage and trying to get young guys game reps. After the Alabama game he said as far as he was concerned, the 2020 Gators played their last game against Alabama. It's an exhibition game. This is a bit of a long-winded, "they didn't want to be there," argument. Nobody can ever beat an SEC team fairly. It was the other team's Super Bowl or something, and therefore it's their fault for trying harder. Shame on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the gameplan was to let the backup QB play half the game and rotate in third stringers but they were totally treating it like every other game. That doesn't sound the least bit silly to you? They wanted it so badly they took the week off instead of practicing. The head coach told us what he was doing a week before the game and you're insisting that wasn't the case.

BBTV Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Why do college QBs do the hand-clap thing to get the snap from the center? Is that like a silent count?

waltere Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 16 hours ago, ManillaToad said: Yeah I agree but I'm talking about this season. Coastal Carolina had ther greatest year in program history and still lost to unranked Liberty when it mattered most. SJSU lost to Ball State. If these schools can't win low tier bowl games against unranked opponents then why should they have been competing for the natty this year? They aren't good enough. Maybe a factor in it is that teams who had really good seasons are demotivated by playing in some mid-tier bowl no one gives a rats ass about, whilst the teams they're playing are hyper-motivated to go out and beat a team who, according to some, should have been in National Championship discussion? 1 hour ago, BringBackTheVet said: sorry sweetie, but I don't suck minor-league d CCSLC Post of the day September 3rd 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, if a defender claps or mimics the quarterback's play calling it's unsportsmanlike conduct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oklahoma only practiced a handful of days themselves, but Oklahoma wasn't starting scout teamers. You're not going to develop chemistry between WRs and a QB in a week... so why not let the kids see their families for the holidays? I dunno, Indiana got exiled to Tampa so Florida could get their reps in this very high value "exhibition". They can piss off.
