I’m pulling for Florida this weekend.
I’m telling you this out of respect and a desire to be transparent.
I’ve long loathed the Gators and their fans, going back to our bowl games against them early on in KF’s tenure. They are the worst, and I would be OK if the Gators were nuked from existence.
But the last couple CFB seasons has shown me that being an insufferable fan is not unique to Florida, but to the lion’s share of SEC fans. Not just about their team, which is to be expected…but also about the entire conference. It is bizarre, incestuous behavior the way they flock to social media to white knight for a rival, or someone who beat them.
I wish for only bad things to happen to that league, and Florida beating Ole Miss would be incredible. Rebel fans have been shit-talking Indiana and seeing them pick up a third loss would be *chef’s kiss*.
This will be a very temporary thing, as soon as the Gators can’t do anything for me, they’re back on the shitlist. But please Florida, make this thing happen.
