Back to the game, if I may...QBs making their first start vs the Gators don't tend to fare well as far as I recall.  Good luck to him.

Two that stand out are Tennessee's Nathan Peterman 4-for-11 with five passing yards, two interceptions and a lost fumble — all in the first half.

He was benched at halftime.


Also, Johnny Football.  He was a baller in the first half, but got completely shut down, both running and throwing, in the 2nd half.  They didn't score after halftime and the Aggies lost.

Most QBs making their first start against competent opposition will struggle.

I used to stock up on cases of Boulevard's Bob's '47 Oktoberfest.  I just don't find it any longer.  Even early in the season
Check HyVee this week. The Coralville store just posted a picture of their latest shipment, with Bob's included.

I know the local Hy-Vee liquor department manager pretty well.  He also works and plays at the golf course I frequent.

Norwegian named Vern
He knows I'm looking for it.
I'll see Vern tonight at golf league, I'll hit him up!

Thanks

I am off to SF early tomorrow.  Hopefully I can catch part of this game in the hotel.  Might be out though, meh.

Then spending 3 days in Sonoma, meeting a buddy who has a ridiculous number of wine club memberships.  He's addicted, always says he will drop them after 6 months but doesn't.  He's a big OSU fan so I guess that should be expected.

Florida is ranked 8th and a 7.5 point favorite

But I still will be hoping for a cane win

Good God, no.


Why?


Clearly you were not in attendance at the 1991 Cotton Bowl.  Go find yourself a copy of it, watch it right now, and git yourself some religion, son.


So very, VERY disappointed in you right now.  SMH.

Miami fans were the worst back in the day. But they weren't really fans. More like bandwagoners because Miami was so great. Now that they have been on a long down slide they barely even have fans anymore. Going to one of their games at Hard Rock Stadium is kind of funny. I went to one a couple years back. It's pretty much always half empty.

It's not their fans, I've never met one and am pretty sure that's a mythical beast.  

It's what the school and the administration and the coaches and the teams have done over the years, that earned them my loathing.  And I hold long, long grudges.  Eff Miami.

Good stuff... Enjoy! My personal favorite wines are zinfandel from the Dry Creek Valley region north of Healdsburg. Really enjoyed Talty and Wilson. Comstock was really good on a previous trip but didn't make it there last time. Foppiano is very small, but a nice experience.

Try to hit Russian River Brewing while there, especially since all the wineries close early and they're open for dinner. Good pizza and great beer.
