I'm not a big butt hurt word fan.  I don't know, it is like finger nails on a chalk board.  

 

I don't know reading this thread just hasn't been to enjoyable.  Can't we just be a little more, I don't know, fun with the smack talk?  Only me?  

Quote:Maybe. The only excuse people can use for 2013 was putrid football/losses. FSU can't use that. They're using every other excuse in the book though.

 

Well y'all did go 11-2 with muschamp and that stadium still wasn't filling up.

 

That is because FSU is smart.  They don't just settle for one excuse trav.  We don't want to limit ourselves.  And you know, we like to actually read the entire book and not just look at pictures such as the one I posted above.  Silly gator fans.

I don't think I would consider this smack talk.

You guys got one person riled up. More gator fans in here that care about the attendance of doak than nole fans.

Ya'll sound like a bunch of chicks, bickering on who cakes on the most makeup..

It's quite a futile comparison. UF has a bigger alumni base. UF has almost 10k more students. Over 50% of UF students and alumni live within 150 miles of Gainesville; while over 50% of FSU students and alumni live outside 150 miles of Tallahassee.


If I was a UF fan, I can assure you I would be much more focused on the disparity between UF and other football programs that have been in existence for around the same time than attendance numbers at FSU. There is a reason most statistical methods and experts have FSU as a top 10 program in college football history and UF as the worst out of the major Florida 3. No matter how you look at it, UF is one of the most underachieving programs there is. The facts don't lie.

I see the big 3 as being mostly equal when comparing what they've done on the football field. Curious as to what the facts are..

FSU has accomplished more than UF in half the time.

Easy there now. Don't let silly things like facts get in the way of little brothers agenda.

Quote:FSU has accomplished more than UF in half the time.

I still don't see the argument here. Do we really care what happened when guys were playing with leather helmets or no helmets? 3 nattys, 3 heismans, hundreds of nfl players by each team.

Florida also leads the head-to-head matchup 34-23-2 so.....

An UF fan comparing their success against FSU is like FSU comparing their success against USF. UF has been around 41 more years than FSU; FSU has been around 50 more years than USF.  UF's football program has been in existence for just shy of 110 years.  The real comparison should be how UF compares to football programs that have been around for the same period of time.  For examples: Alabama's program is 123 years.  They have 15 claimed national titles, 4 unclaimed, 1 playoff appearance, 28 conference titles, 34 bowl wins, 851 games won, 57 consensus all-americans.  Oklahoma's program is 120 years.  They have 7 claimed national titles, 10 unclaimed, 0 playoff appearances, 44 conference titles, 28 bowl wins, 850 games won all time, 5 heisman winners, 75 consensus all-americans.

 

When compared to programs that have been around as long as UF, one sees how dismal UF has been.  109 years since first season.  3 claimed national titles, none unclaimed.  no playoff appearances. only 8 conference titles, 21 bowl wins, 698 games won-all time, 3 heisman winners, 31 consensus all-americans.  Put those stats up to FSU, who has been around for half the time, UF's stats still look bad.  They both have 3 claimed national championships and 0 unclaimed.  FSU has 1 playoff appearance to UF's zero.  FSU has 18 conference titles to UF's 8.  FSU has 26 bowl wins to UF's 21.  UF has the edge in games won 698 over 517.  They both have 3 heisman winners.  FSU has 42 consensus all-american's to UF's 31.

 

In all the statistical studies that ranks programs based on their performance, ie. national titles, major bowls, bowl wins, heisman winners, top 10 finishes, draft picks, etc., FSU is always top 10 and ahead in the race of the Florida Big 3.  I will give examples.  In ESPN's 2007 prestige rankings, BEFORE FSU's dominance where they racked up a national title, a few undefeated seasons, a heisman winner, numerous conference titles and tons of all-american's, ESPN still had FSU way ahead of UF. In this ranking, FSU is 9, Miami 10, UF 15.  Athlon Sports recently had a similar statistical study using basically the same criteria.  In this, Miami came in 21, UF in 20, FSU in 10.  As I said, the FACTS do not lie.

Brought this up in another thread. UF is a larger school than FSU.


Also brought up how UF football has only been relevant for 25 years minus the Pell era, while FSU football has been relevant and good going on 45 years.

Exactly... To be a fan of a program such as UF that has been around for almost 110 years and compare it to a young school like FSU is pathetic. Look at all FSU has accomplished in 68 years. They have accomplished a lot more than UF has done in 100+.


Heck what did UF do in their first 68 years? No claimed or unclaimed national titles. No conference titles. No heisman winners. 6 bowl wins. 1 consensus all-american. They were 5-13 against Alabama, 19-30-2 against Auburn, 19-31-2 against Georgia, 12-13 against Kentucky, 8-11-2 against LSU, 6-3-3 against SC, 2-13 against Tennessee.


Most logical people wouldn't have even considered that a program; it was a joke.

Man, we are taking our trash talk back to the golden age.  Back to before our grandfathers were born now?

Man, this thread is STILL going?

It had died, but someone had to be that guy and bring it up again.
