I grew up a Gator fan, and went to UF (class of '76). It is amazing to hear all the newbies talking about the Gator's "proud tradition". I remember that tradition, and it was nothing to be proud of. We always, ALWAYS, lost the big game, just when it appeared to be "our season". Our proud tradition began with, and so far has only included, Steve Spurrier's tenure. (Urban Meyer fielded great teams that, with exceptions, seemed to be largely comprised of miscreants and never seemed to embrace the University or its fans.) Too many Gator fans, esp the young ones, are arrogant and entitled. (I went to Spurrier's last game vs. Md in the Orange Bowl, when UF should have been playing for the NC in Pasadena. However, once again, they had lost their last game, this time to UT, not UGa. The UF kids were ragging on the Md kids, and not in a fun way. Finally the Md kids had enough and one said, "Hey, you can't ruin my night. We were picked to be last in the ACC and here we are in the Orange Bowl. Where were you supposed to be??!!" A GREAT putdown.) Too many of our fans feel entitled and think we should be playing for an SEC and national championship every year. Knowing our history, I am grateful for success when it is achieved, but, temper it with the knowledge that it is fleeting. I think UM, F$U and UCF should adopt a similar outlook - gratitude and appreciation for the relatively few successes we enjoy. And, no, UCF does not have Natl Championship. Congratulations on a perfect season, but, they need to accept facts and get over themselves.
