How many times have we beat UF in the last 50+ years? Anybody know? Here it comes...........9! So, yeah, storm the field.
That is extremely misleading. We didn't start playing Flordia every year until 1991ish. Before that, we only played them twice a decade or some such. We have close to a .500 record against gators.
Difference is we were still really good in 98. Not so much right now...True that we didn't play them every year until the split, however, not at all misleading that we have lost to them 22 times in the last 50+ years. 22-9 in their favor. Not misleading.
Did anyone have a problem when we rushed the field in 98'? It's not like we knew ahead of time we were gonna be national champions. We were tired of getting stomped by them several years in a row. That's exactly what has happened here.
