I swear. Watching games like this is like porn for me. Only better and less messy.
The Gators annihilated the Wildcats 187-4, for the 3,000th time in a row. Seriously, look it up. It was mean, but fun, which is the best kind. Bear in mind that Kentucky has the number one defense in the SEC, or at least they did until today. The Gators put up 446 total yards against the Wildcats. That's just fucking sick. Being no. 1 in the SEC in anything is no joke, being the no.1 defense in a conference built on stout defense is deadly serious.
There's no arguing that Jeff Demps is, like my favorite wallet, a bad motherfucker. The guy is made of lightning.
Timmy was, uh, killing it. Back to his Messianic self. He went 11/15 for 180 yds, 2 td's and a pick. He also ran for 2 td's and 48 yds. I have to admit that I am skeptical of Timmy's throwing lately. He doesn't seem to have the timing. Except for that perfect pass to Harvin where Timbow stood in the pocket and hit Percy in stride for as pretty a touchdown pass as you'll see anywhere. Aside from that pass to Harvin, much of his passing yards come from yards after the catch. He rarely throws any deep outs, everything basically staying under 15-20 yds. His numbers don't lie though. In the end, The Timbot wins and is deceivingly efficient. So you better watch your mouth.
Moore scored. Remember him? Yeah, apparently after fumbling like a fucking fuck the senior is still alive with a TD tonight to prove it. Good for him. Moody still didn't play because he aggravated his high-ankle sprain earlier this week in practice, but he's probable for Georgia. Brantley threw his first touchdown as a Gator, a 38 yd strike to David Nelson, a 6-5 junior from Wichita, TX who, when not sitting on the bench, also drags defenders 15 yds to goal lines. The Tebow was celebrating after Brantley's pass, and earlier after a tough Brantley run. The Tebow likes. Brantley, a multi-generational Gator like yours truly, was excited and grateful for The Tebow's help.
Janoris Jenkins was injured on the first play. He was taken into the locker room and x-rayed. They were negative. Exhale. He has a bruised knee, according to the Raycom Sports commentators, which is as good as truth for me. Meyer reports that he is "very probable" for Georgia next week which is great effing news. That kid's a stud. Ask Wande Pierre-Louise, the freshman Jenkins took his job. Good job by Wande filling in today. Nice hitting. By the way, if you haven't seen it already, check out how Jenkins and others from Pahokee get so quick. They chase wabbits. It's good to have things to do.
Black was laying hat and took a pick to the crib. Will Hill, too, was knocking heads. He had one hit on Adams that was wonderfully violent. Haden and Spikes were flying all over the field laying people out. We can forget about any talk of our secondary being a weakness. The defense didn't allow a touchdown, and held a team to 10 points or fewer for the 5th time this season, which is-- like myself-- pretty gangster.
In sum I can't wait to go to Jacksonville and watch the Gators dance their asses off in the endzone next Saturday (go vote). Would be nice to eat a little Georgia peach too.
Catch your act on Saturday.
Go Gators.

go gators!!!
I do sure love me some Georgia Peaches!!!
Great Stuff...I have one observation though. I must disagree with Jota...lets slow down on Demps being better than Percy...Percy Harvin is Percy Harving and there is no one else on the planet better with the ball in his hands than a healthy Percy Harvin. The NY times article made a great point about track stars' speed not necessarily translating into football b/c of their inability to move laterally as needed in the sport of football. The are trained to run in a perfectly smooth upright technique and work hard at repeating that (i.e. maintaining that same technique) everytime they sprint. Demps is not nearly as laterally quick as Percy or Rainey for that matter...but he is very efficient...the boy doesn't mess around, he sees daylight and is off to the races. His running style reminds me in a not flashy (other than the speed of course) but highly productive kind of way to Emmit Smith. Clearly they are different runners (Emmit was not fast) but neither mess around and dance or overcut when they run, they see the whole and they hit it and they get whatever they can get...obviously Emmit was more in between the tackles and Demps is trying to get outside and take off but that same efficiency of running style is there. Having said all that, nobody cuts on a full sprint like Percy...fuck the track times...he is the most dangerous gator with the ball in his hands...period. And when we need to make a play down the stretch in a big game, Georgia/Bama etc....guess who is getting the ball??? PERCY...OH MERCY PERCY!!!! WOOO. Go Gators.
Jeff Demps is scary, holy shit fast. But Percy can move. he's like water, he find the path of least resistance everytime.
Even when he's moving slow, he's going fast. I agree that Percy's moves outdo Demps's. But remember that Percy too was a track star in Virginia. Demps is also young and has less football experience than Percy.
Demps is not Harvin and vice-versa. But, as evidenced by his games, he not only runs, but learns fast. If he learns how to catch passes deeper than 10 yahds-- forget about it.
Demps for Heisman, after Percy gets his of course.
