I gotta hand it to Ole Miss. Just when I thought they were going to get blown out of Vaught-Hemingway, they rallied to make it a game. Given Florida's recent history in the state of Mississippi, I thought the ghosts were about to haunt them again. The Gators' defense is young and it was their first road test. Maybe they needed a gut-check game like this. If Tim Tebow wasn't the QB (Best.College.Quarterback.Ever!), I don't think the Gators would've left with a win. Great win for JSU! Of course, it was against Valley, but it looks as if things are starting to click now. Keep it up Tigers! BTW, Hinds, what the heck was that on Thursday night? 61-0 in your own crib?
