Biggest Rival Poll

[Mr2Bits]

Who is our biggest football rival in your mind?

 

[FGfan2150]

I voted Florida State, mostly because they are located near eachother. It's kind of like Boston College and Umass. Two big rivalries.

 

[Hey Tebow likes lamps]

Wow I pulled up an old thread!

 

[GatorsDiva21]

I voted Tennessee, only becuz there in our on division, and usually it's between us and them who wins the east, although I coulda picked georgia, FSU or LSU but I seriously think tenn is our biggest, AND as of late, it seems OSU is starting to become a rival, so add them next time

between uf and ut for the east? its actually usually between UGA and ut for the east here lately, the winner of that game has went to the seccg something like 6 of the last 7 years!

I voted UGA because I just don't like them. I agree, if OSU was up there, I would have picked it just because of their fans. I can't stand their fans. cough IMAKESEVERALGOOD or whatever his name is now cough

FSU, but UGA would be a close second. No team runs their mouth as much as FSU does. Also, no team plays as dirty as FSU does.

 

[Leakfan12]

Free Shoes University because they're the in-state rivals.

 

[Hey Tebow likes lamps]

concurred with Leakfan!

While Florida State is the closest rival. The Georgia rivalry has been the most competive the longest. I also concur that Ohio State is fast becoming a rival.

Especially considering that the Gators keep facing them in title game. OSU is lucky is Gators team lost to Umass otherwise the NIT title would have been the Gators.

yea florida won it alot in the 90's when UGA was down but this is the 21st century and florida has only won the east 1 time in the last 7 years. Alabama won alot too back in the day but it doesnt really matter in todays sports world!

 

[GatorsDiva21]

Hey it's all good not trying to start a gator/ bulldog war BUT your right florida has only won it 1 time and went on to win the national championship where they wasn't even suppose to be there, so the "media" says, OSU was suppose to rub our faces in the field, but as you already know, that didn't happen. And another thing that your right on, this is the 21st century things change, but one thing that georgia needs to remember, The gators are getting better and better, I hardly think you'll see the same team you saw last year and just a reminder, it's been 2 years since florida won the national title, georgia 28 yrs thats a heck of drout there.[COLOR]

well going from a national championship year to 9-4 isn't exactly what I would call getting better, but hey what do I know right? yes it has been a while since UGA won the MNC but what does that have to do with our discussion on who wins the east? the only thing that tells me is that UGA has been the more consistanly good program with UF coming in every so often and having a really good team every once and a while.

 

[J-ville Gator]

Well let's see here dog re: you're comment about "winning a MNC then going 9-4". D-line had one returning starter (Harvey), One Linebacker (Spikes), One safety (Joiner) and no cornerbacks. that's 3 starters on the defense that returned.

Everyone else had either never played that position (Haden), were freshmen or saw very limited action the previous year.

There is NO school that could survive losing that much on defense and not miss a beat, NO ONE!!

Even with the lack of experience on the defense last year we were one game from winning the East, those are the breaks. Even in the ZOOK years, we were tied for the East with UT, they were ranked higher and therefor they went.

We (UF) aren't going anywhere. The players we have on roster are very close to Southern Cal. UF WILL be the team to beat in the East as long as Meyer is at the helm. We already have THE best offense nationally and the defense will win games for us this year, that I'm positive of.
