The Gators deserved it tonight. Like Mom and I say, "In college football, any team can win on any given day." It's the nature of the beast of college football, and why I love watching it so much, even if the team I'm rooting for doesn't seem prepared. I guess it also helps that I was raised a Gator, and have cheered on the Gators every season. As I have mentioned earlier, this game was win/win for me.
Your mom is a very smart lady, Ohioan. The same can be said for anything from grade school basketball, to pro football, and every sport in between.
This is a sad night (morning) for me, but I'm trying very hard to take a page from Coach T's book, and be as gracious in losing as in winning. Darn it's difficult, but that's the way it should be.
So again, congrats 'Gators on your NC. You deserved it.
Winding down down, and going to tuck myself into bed, a little bit (actually alot) sadder, but knowing it's just a game, and that there are more important things in this life.
