How about THAT last 2 minutes?!!! Just UNFRIGGINGBELIEVABLE! Purifoy blocks it STYRAIGHT into Jelani's hands, who made a better catch than ANY receiver made today,
Yes: "Winning is better than losing". I just went from thoroughly BUMMED to giddy and UP...but let's just FACE it: we have NO complaints the rest of the way: we came within SECONDS of completely embarrassing ourselves before the whole NATION today...Then again, as my girlfriend is saying to me--AND my ex-wife, a Gator, would ALSO no doubt say--"that isn't what HAPPENED, though..."
Let's give credit to (1) Jacoby Brisset for pulling it together just enough right at the end to get us down and INTO the endzone to tie it, and (2) this "never-say-die"-Gator team this year: for all of their weird "let-down" after seeming to finally grab control of this game end-of-1st-half/start-of-2nd-half, right up until Jordon Reed dropped that EASY TD-pass on his hands on that 1st nice drive of the 2nd half, settling for 3 then La-La coming ALIVE, make no mistake, even as we seemed to go into an undeserved "cruise-mode" that turned DARK with that blocked punt AFTER they'd plled close with their OWN TD drive, like our D couldn't BELIEVE it, and we were BEAT after that, all the MORE so after JD went down...then Jacoby looked like he couldn't hit ANYTHING, seemed to miss on his-and-OUR seeming "one chance", then somehow EVERYONE, BOTH sides of the ball, Jacoby and the offense included, finally seemed to pull it together and GET IT DONE--tied it up, and I STILL wasn't at ALL sure what we'd do with THAT--and it was ALL just prelude to--Well, we all saw it!
...Which reminds me:
NaffGutts Did you switch back in time to see it, man? I clicked back in JUST in time to see us run that little pass play that tied it UP...and WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THAT WAS CRAZY AMAZING FUN!!!
