Gator Football

It's not everyday that you come across a feel good story about a Used Car salesman, who is awarded for his integrity, and who is also not only a Gator but served as the Gators' travel agent since the Charlie Pell years, and can even dish on Tim Tebow. For 30 years, [John Cousins] and his family have quietly grown their business by adhering to a code of ethics, keeping repeat customers and counting on word of mouth for new customers. Cousins has worked behind the scenes on various community boards as well as serving as the volunteer travel agent for the Florida Gators ... Read Full Story

“You love the jersey that you played in your last four years,” he said . “But also, you’re going to have a new jersey, and it will be something that’s cool and special to this one game.” We just wish they had the orange Gator script helmets. We can live with Gator blue uniforms with weird butt stripes , but why go retro helmet for technologically advanced unis? Nike site . (Has a somewhat cool narration.) Gator Country photo array .

Make no mistake about it, No. 1 Florida's run to the top is nothing like last year's. Florida ran over teams a season ago to win its second national title in three years. This time, the Gators (10-0) are doing it as much on mental toughness as on talent. They finished off their first perfect, 8-0 Southeastern Conference regular season in 13 years with a 24-14 victory at South Carolina on Saturday.

No. 1 Florida didn't do much to erase all the negative vibes from rough week for the defending champions. Tim Tebow accounted for two touchdowns, Caleb Sturgis kicked two field goals and the Gators beat Vanderbilt 27-3 in a lackluster effort Saturday night at The Swamp. Florida fans looking for something positive following linebacker Brandon Spikes' one-game suspension for dirty play and coach Urban Meyer's hefty fine for criticizing officials may have been disappointed. The Gators (9-0, 7-0 Southeastern Conference) extended their winning streak to 19 games overall — and their streak against Vandy (2-8, 0-6) to 19 games, too — but struggled on ... Read Full Story
