Thanks for the well wishes gators, and congrats to my fellow Bama fans.

I had said I liked our chances before but I certainly didn't see it playing out quite as it did.

You know, people can say what they want about Dunlap, but you just don't lose a guy like that under circumstances like that and it not have an effect. Just look what happened to us when we lost Andre Smith the week of the Sugar Bowl last year. And I'm smart enough to know that that wasn't the sole reason we won the game. But distractions hurt you man, and the gators had them everywhere last week. Dunlap's DUI, Meyer to ND, Strong to Lousiville, and then quite frankly, I don't think Florida thought we could beat them.

This team plays with a purpose though. They just bring it. And for a long time fan and alum they're a joy to watch. It's been a hell of a ride this year and yet I somehow don't think we're done.

So...welcome to the fray horn fans. And don't forget that we owe you guys one too. Actually, we owe you about seven. Hopefully we'll get the first one back January 7th.

Roll Tide!
