Embrace the hate (Gator hate that is)

So I was as shocked as the next person to see the UGA team come on the field after the first score. Next I was pissed. Now I think it's comical and also speaks to a larger good for the Gators! We are almost as hated as Notre Dame is now and this is good. All of these things are a sign of JEALOUSY.

1. The post TD incident Saturday
2. Every time we get beat or have a big play against us the other team breaks out the mock 'chomp'
3. All the Gator Hater T-shirts

I'm sure there are more but the fact is that EVERYONE loves to hate us and it's because of what we have done on the field, what we have to offer as a school, etc... It's all really a compliment if you think of it on this level. Would Richt need this tactic versus Ga. Tech their in state rival or Tennessee or Auburn? It's all good at the end of the day.

As long as your team gets it done on the field, and over the last 10 years that is certainly the case for UF, embrace the hate. B/c it's not going away anytime soon. You won a national title last year. You should expect and prepare to get the best every team can give you.

Now if UF can find some defensive players, it might just have a chance to shut down Moreno and Stafford next year.
