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.91 Off The edge......Might want to let this one rest, and give it to Alfie. He was wrong on the Miami game though

| 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?
So you have to finish in the top 15 every year to be a top 15 team? I want to see every team not named USC that has done so this decade. There will not be a single one outside for maybe Oklahoma. UF is a top 15 team, program, stadium, concession stand, whatever. Only you would say anything otherwise.
Why don't you harp on Syracuse some more without getting the painfully obvious point? Even if Iowa did a home and home with Syracuse and Baylor every other year, their OOC schedule would still be better.
Wrong. Playing crap OOC teams on the road still doesn't match having to play FSU. Want UF to leave the state? Write a letter your congressman, what do you want me to do about it. They play the cards they're dealt and are more interested in making $5+ million dollar for a home game against Citadel than a $1.5M payout to play at Syracuse. I hardly doubt UF is afraid to play outside of Florida, and anyone who thinks different is stupid. Other than leaving the state, what do they accomplish by beatin the pulp out of Syracuse or Baylor in NY or TX? Other than to make you happy? Should UF play some road OOC games? No. Would I like to see it? Yeah. But I cant blame them for making a nice payday.
I don't know.
So you cant name 15 (or even 3) top 15 teams, but are sure UF isnt one of them.
t'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.
So of the 15 top 15 teams since 2000, one is USC, the other possibly OU and the rest are blanks. Thats essentially what your saying because I highly doubt more than 3 teams can claim to have finished top 15 every season. But you dont ever provide facts in your argument, just call people on their so called inferiority complex. At least I provide facts. You throw out numbers that show UF finished outside the top 15 four seasons and say they are not a top 15 team. Florida is probably the fifth best team since 1990. You only go back to this decade to prove your so called point. You use the Zook years as your entire argument.
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.
The article ranks how many BCS opp. a team played. UF was one every season. Not to mention, Florida was a top 15 team for all but 3 seasons during that span if record mattered. And I never said that, so please stop. I said "UF has nothing to do with that". Not "UF has everything to do with that."
*waits for Alfie to say i have a psychological problem, say I don't know who is a top 15 team but based on my bias UF is not and I know everything about the state of Florida football.*
*Doesn't know why I bother. Alfie will just keep spitting out nonsensical statements that have no merit or truth.* |

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..
If Alfie is saying what I think he is saying, he's is saying that UF did not consistently finish in the top 15 over that span of time. For example, FSU had 14 straight years finishing in the top 5, therefore, over that time span you could call them a top 5 program. I think that's what he's saying, i don't agree or disagree with it. Just deciphering.

I guess it was rocket science.
jagshank STILL doesn't get it. Maybe his mom can give him a hug and tell him Florida is No. 1 so he'll stop taking it so personally.
Though, I laughed at this quote:
So you have to finish in the top 15 every year to be a top 15 team?
Uh... YEAH. That would denote a consistent Top 15 team. Notice I said TEAM AND NOT PROGRAM.
Maybe you just don't know what CONSISTENT means.

If you really think Auburn didn't make it to the NC game because of a weak schedule than you are much more ignorant when it comes to college football than I thought was even possible. Wow.Didn't they lose out in the computer polls because of a weak schedule? And I never said UF was the sole reason that FSU was at the top, but it doesn't hurt them to play a top 15 program every season. UF hasn't been a Top 15 team on a consistent basis in a long time. Don't rewrite history. My whole point is: How many teams are? If you can't find any over that span.. Then there is no such thing. So you can say UF isn't along with every other team in the nation.
I see what Alfie is talking about with the guy saying UF may be part of the reason, but here the guys said it doesn't hurt that FSU plays UF.. which isn't completely off base.. especially considering FSU used to play Miami also before they were part of the ACC.

Not being able to prove that about other teams doesn't disprove what alfie's original stance about this was. That is a whole other story. Nothing close to what was brought up. That point is moot.

I'll ask her. Your dumber than you appear. Of course I knew what you were saying. Its just what you were saying, including everything else you say, was stupid. There have been no consistent top 15 teams this decade if thats what you think a top 15 team means. Its just the absolute stupidest way to look at things.
It just pains you to see Florida as a top team, program etc. I dislike teams but I don't let it cloud my judgement. FSU was dominant, as was Miami. What OSU has done is impressive. What USC is doing now is out of this world. What Florida is doing is building a future where they can compete for a NC every year. If Tebow comes back for a senior season, then I think UF is the #1 team in '09. This year, top 6-7 with 1-2 losses.
I could care less what you think of Florida, and I don't think Florida is a top 3 team this year. But that wont stop you from making assumptions that make you look like an arse and tell me to go hug my mom.
Maybe thats your problem. Your mom didn't hug you enough. I bet your dad did though.

This decade there probably have been 0 top 20 teams according to Alfie. They may have been 2-3 top 25 teams this decade. The top 20 teams of this decade, according to Alfie, is blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank, blank. |
