HOLD ON TO YOUR GATOR TAILS!

Now that the BCS has picked the Gators to play Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl, the University of Florida will have a chance to be the first Division I, II or III college/university to win consecutive basketball and football championships. Looking ahead, the Gators hoops team could very well repeat as their entire starting lineup is back and chompin'. That would really be something!

On the flip side, if the Buckeyes beat Florida on January 8th, and then go on to win the NCAA Final Four in April, they'll be the first college to crack open a football and basketball title in the same school year.

I'm still shocked that USC lost to UCLA yesterday, but looking ahead, USC can be another university to win both football and basketball championships. Football is a near-given every year, but now that hyped hooper O.J. Mayo signed with the Trojans, he could potentially pave the way for other blue chips to follow his lead. And so on, and so on...

Go Florida!!! Your article stirs up the excitement and spirit of college sports and how much an integral part of college life it can be. Is winning about the right combination of athletes and coaches; I would be interested in your take on this.

There are a lot of Gator Haters out there. The SEC is a very tough conference. Chris Leak has been the glue for the gators nad he has provided outstanding leadership this year.

Now USC is something else. They made Michagan look bad last night. you can tell they wanted the nation to take notice that they will be back. Perhaps that would have been the game USC vs OSU but its not happening.

GO GATORS!
