Watching [alleged] underdogs take apart [alleged] top teams is one the things I enjoy the most about college football. This time it hurt, but what the hell? I do not know if this is true of all fans, getting thoroughly beaten is, for me, easier to take than a close loss. No questionable calls, no key plays, no moments to agonize over. Cf. Tony Romo.

The Gators didn't have a single Obligatory Stupid Gator Moment. Not one. I can't ever recall that happening. I wonder what happened to all the whiny Michigan fans who thought we didn't deserve to be there? They're as quiet as the Buckeye offense today. I’m still reeling.
