Gator fans---

“searching for hope”---

SAY…

“We control

our OWN DESTINY

in the SEC East”---

If Florida beats

Georgia AND

South Carolina,

WE can be in the

SEC Championship

Game…”

BUT---

assessing

the past two

Saturdays---

the Gators

have been adept

ONLY at

“beating themselves”…

LSU and Alabama

“manhandled” and

“humiliated”

Florida---by a

“total TWO-WEEK

SCORE” of---79 to 21…

It’s been

40 years since

the Gators lost

back-to-back

games by

such an

“ugly margin”…

Reason One---

“Gator fundamentals”…

Florida “TACKLES

poorly”…

Gators appear

incapable of

BLOCKING a

talented defense…

It is---“A MESS”…

Early-season

Gator “joy”---

getting off to

a 4-and-0 start---

has evolved into

orange-and-blue

“mortification”…

Gator rooters

can’t even get

“much of

a chuckle”

at seeing

“rival FSU”

lose three straight…

MATTER OF FACT---

college football

in our state

has NOT been “so

“collectively LOW”

in 20 years…

When will

the Gators win

win another game?...

BEATS me…

I’m Hubert Mizell,

and that’s what I think.
