Kurt-RUTS is like porn;you know it when you see it, and Florida Field has often resembled a smut stand in the last 15 years;-) :wave:

I don't know much about porn but I didn't see anything unsportsmanlike in the UF v. UT game. It feels odd being accused of running up the score by an SEC east team who many fans and writers predicted to win the division.

It's one thing for a fan to get upset about a blowout, but how would you feel if your players and coaches blamed the other team for beating them too badly?
 
You know I was making a comparison to the Supreme Court's famous definition of porn;-)

It is a sticky situation. I didn't pay full attention to the game once it became a rout, but I do know Florida scored its last TD with less than 3 minutes from something like 3 or 4 yards out. They already had 52 points on the board, so one could argue they could have knelt the ball four downs and let the clock run to nothing and give UT 95 yards and a few seconds. But, I know from my playing days (:floor:) the benchwarmers work just as hard as the starters and there isn't much joy to going in a game in the waning moments and being told to take a knee when you spend so much time doing drills learning how to block, run, etc. Like I said, I don't blame Urban for doing what he did.

Yes - the backup QB, Cam Newton, very much wanted to score his first career TD. Freshmen are like that. :lol:

Personally, I would have put him in the game earlier because he needs the reps. But as I said, the score might have been even worse. Maybe Meyer doesn't want a QB controversy. ;-)

Thanks Skunky. Tennessee has run out the clock on several occasions not scoring anymore. Kathy hunted up all these games of UT's where most of them were blowouts but some she listed were not. I could find out when those games were but I am sure they were back around 1998 probably from when they won the National Championship maybe. I am mad at the Tennessee players themselves for the way the game ended up. Their defense didn't show up late when needed. For a while they had some good defensive stops, but it was just like they gave up. I think they need to get rid of Fulmer and the entire bunch of coaches and start fresh. And they just gave each assisting coach a extension of their contracts I believe, or something, after the Southern Miss game. Maybe we can beat Arkansas State this week. But it is pay per view only. So I won't be paying for that.
