jashank, it's pretty obvious you don't understand the comment.

You acted like FSU playing UF in the span in which this article talks about had a lot of weight on FSU's ranking. It doesn't. UF hasn't been a great program over that span. I don't understand why some Gator fans act like UF has been amazing the past 6, 7, 8 years. They haven't, let's be real. I'm not saying Florida isn't a Top 15 PROGRAM. They haven't consistently been a TOP 15 TEAM over the span in which the article is speaking of. Is it really that hard?

9-4, 8-5. Oh no, huge difference.


Who has been a top 15 TEAM!!1!!1 over that span?


I don't know.

He acted like the main reason FSU ranked No. 1 in this list because it played Florida every year.

You don't know which teams have been top 15... but  you know UF hasn't been?

Florida hasn't left the state for a non-confrence game since 1991. Why?

IDK. Why don't you tell us?

Are they scared? Do they need to prove something?

Yeah.

I guess that's pretty unbelievable I'm familiar with Florida, FSU, and UM's records the past while, huh?




Del Rio was right!

Wow.

It sounds like you had no clue what you were talking about and just spat off at the mouth.

If you can't name 15 teams better than UF over that span, how can you say UF hasn't been a top 15 team?

Fallacies, anyone?

Christ, do you really not see the difference in calling Florida a Top 15 program, and Florida not being a consistent top 15 team in that span?

It's not a matter of 15 programs being better, it's a matter of DURING THAT SPAN FLORIDA WAS NOT A TOP 15 TEAM EVERY YEAR DURING THE SPAN, hence not a consistent Top 15 team in that span.

Really... ? Is it that hard?

Prove it.

I'm not saying anything either way.

Who has been there? Tell me.

Final BCS rankings:

2000: 7th
2001: 5th
2002: 26th (first team outside out of Top 25)
2003: 15th
2004: 23rd
2005: 17th
2006: 1st
2007: 12th

Well, certainly looks like consistently Top 15.

What I'm saying is: Are there any top 15 teams over that span?

If not and you can't name them and back them up with facts and stats.. what are you proving about UF?.. Basically.. they're not a top 15 team over that span and nobody else is, either.. so what are you proving?

There is no such thing as a top 15 team over that span.. a case for USC and maybe another school or two could be made.. but the point is there is no such thing..

Pretty close, though.

You're missing the entire point.

He acted like FSU was No. 1 in the article because it played Florida every season, as if Florida was a top tier team every year during the span.
