I still cannot get over the amount of voodoo that exists for us in that damn Swamp. A lot was made of us not having won there in 20 years. We've also only won their 2x since 1971. The Iceman is our only QB in the modern era who has won a game there. Peyton Freaking Manning didn't win there. Tee Martin didn't win there. Dobbs didn't. Hooker didn't. It is absolutely unbelievable.

I would never post this in the forum but watching this slow down makes me think Hadden had money on Florida

It’s about the worst two attempts at making a tackle I’ve ever seen. It’s hard to figure how he’s getting PT. Every time you look up, he’s either getting burned or chirping.

I and the crowd I was watching the game with were just stunned speechless. You do expect crap like that from him, but the "tackle" attempt and then just somersaulting without even attempting to extend your arms to try and trip him up from behind is incredible.

It's such a lazy, stupid, braindead play. I think he thought Walker was going to make the tackle before he got there, but he whiffed, and Kamal wasn't really prepared to make an actual tackle so it just kind of bumped into him.

I think he's actually really afraid of contact - guys who run their mouth a lot usually are.

I don't know how much Mincey matters, but we were a disaster for sure at Center.

It also isn't exactly a ringing endorsement of the rest of the O-line if their performance as a unit hinges so much on one guy. It isn't even like Cooper Mays is an elite SEC center to begin with.

We miss Darnell and Carvin so much. Carvin left and wasn't even drafted. Was he out of eligibility anyway? I seem to remember him posting a Twitter message that he was leaving, as though he didn't have to leave.

He played out his full five years. I was surprised he wasn’t drafted.

Hookers mobility is also missed tho. Joe is athletic but is not in his league running the ball, or making plays on the run.

It was his processing speed overall that we really miss (knowing when to tuck it and run is certainly part of that).

It's so sad to see a guy with all the physical tools in the world and not being able to effectively/efficiently use them.
