O-town Gator
Gator Fan
"Mike Pouncey needs for Saturday to get here quickly. After a nightmare game against Miami (OH) last weekend that left him feeling truly embarrassed and the subject of national ridicule, he needs to play well against USF when the Golden Bulls come to town (12:21 p.m.; Ben Hill Griffin Stadium; SEC Network). He needs to redeem himself. Then and only then will he get a good night’s rest.
Several bad snaps by Pouncey set the tone for an effort so uninspiring that the Florida Gators fell from third in the coaches poll to sixth in the most recent rankings. Although the Gators finished off Miami to the tune of 34-12, their miserable offensive output (212 total yards), the lingering memory of Florida’s opening game win of the 2010 season is a mistake-filled effort for which Mike Pouncey has asked to shoulder all the blame. He feels his poor effort reflected poorly on his teammates and that is a burden that he’s been carrying for the past three days.
“I’m the leader of the offense and when the leader is messing it up, it makes everybody look bad,” Pouncey said early Tuesday afternoon. “It’s just not expected out of me. I’ve been busting my tail. I haven’t been able to sleep all week ever since the game, trying to get it right and it’s going to be right this weekend.”
