Luck of the ... Cajuns?

How can that happen? And to lose to that yahoo of a coach is even more painful, and certainly to lose that way really rips it. Got to admit, the fake field goal was clever--predictable, but clever, but still (a) the Gators should have been all over it (what were you thinking, Jenoris?), and (b) I can't believe the bounce they got, right back to the kicker. Sort of makes Urban's uberthinking about bounces and luck in response to a question before the game prophetic. Ouch!

This one will hurt for quite a while. Even though it doesn't knock us out of the SEC championship game, it means we have to beat the rest of the East to get there (especially the Ole Ball Coach, who deserves a mighty round of applause for beating the Tide today). It can be done, but it won't be easy. The games that looked like locks before the season started have become iffy now, starting with MSU and Georgia. Georgia!?! Who would have thunk it...?

On the good side, we found our kickoff returner--Andre's touchdown return was SWEET!  And we know that Johnny B can lead the team on a long drive to win the game.  Well, shoulda won it....

We can probably still count on a win at Vandy, and probably against App State, but I'd say every other game is a contest. Exciting that way; frustrating as hell, but exciting. I just hope we beat the Noles this year! I would hate to go into that game needing a win to get to a bowl... double ouch!
