Did fans chant F U florida?

The chant was embarrassing, fans throwing their ut decor onto the field was embarrassing, this team is not embarrassing. They played their hearts out and wanted that win more than us. If we keep this behavior up as a fan base, the players will begin to play to spite us, especially if we keep calling for coaching changes. Same thing that happened to the basketball team with Stokes last year.

I've already said Muschamp should not have made the comment he did.

But I see a qualitative difference between that plus a dozen-ish players responding to taunts from the crowd, versus some X thousands of members of the crowd chanting profanities, in unison, on national TV.

But maybe that's just me.

I see a quantitative difference in that argument.

I see a qualitative difference between 12k+ students chanting in frustration/response to opposing players taunting them and a coach being paid millions of dollars to be a professional and student athletes on full-rides throwing ice into the crowd and flipping us off.

But maybe that's just me.

You think the students were chanting that because they were provoked by UF football players? I'd say more likely their motivations were safety in numbers, alcohol, and a decade of frustration. Not necessarily in that particular order.

Then how in the world could you claim Neyland's fear factor over all?

I am a UT fan and I want that to be right. And from what I've heard from many on here is that Neyland is a much better venue then all of the schools listed with maybe the exception of Auburn.

Please stop making it look like UT fan=clueless. Neyland is my favorite venue, but it pales in comparison, in regards to fear and intimidation, to many in the SEC

Class might be the wrong word. I view "don't scream curse words in public places" in the same vein as "don't fart in elevators", "don't spit forward while riding a bike" and "don't pee in your pants".

We have been down for a decade and we just sold out to a team that has now beaten us 10 straight. Sell out crowd, checkered and louder then anything I've ever heard.

The problem is, and you have admitted as much, you haven't heard anything other than Neyland. Thats like sleeping with one chick who happens to be fat and thinking fat girls are awesome.

I definitely think it was a big factor. And I think the straw that broke the camel's back was Driskel dancing around in the backfield in the victory formation. And I've heard everyone saying he was trying to run down clock, but when the snap comes with 20 seconds left on the play clock, that's not running down the clock. That's taunting. I'd say our motivation was that mixed with alcohol and a decade of frustration, but I don't think it would have been noticeable without the taunting.

My daughter was right in the middle of it. She said several Gator players started it all by standing on the bench taunting the students, taunting them, throwing Gatorade into the stands and flipping them off. I think responsibilities resides on both sides, there just was more students than players so it was spotlighted more. You can take that for what it's worth. And, just to be clear, my daughter was embarrassed by the chant as well.

He was trying to run the game clock in an effort to keep from having to snap the ball additional times.

You aren't understanding what I'm saying. I know how kneeling the ball works. But why snap the ball with 20 seconds left on the play clock instead of letting the play clock run closer to zero and then kneel?
