It was bound to happen to Florida eventually. Florida had some weird losses in the middle of the year with being swept by Auburn and losing 2 of three at home to Tennessee, but they kind of just kept taking care of business when it mattered. Turned it around and didn't lose too many games to close out the year. Their pitching was outstanding with a bunch of good arms. They beat a very strong and hot LSU team, so their run was pretty impressive.
And they still think they are AlabamaMy problem with Florida isn't the team, but the "Gator Nation". They don't care about anything but football. The second most popular sport at Florida is spring football. When they showed the crowd at the CWS, you saw nothing but LSU fans. When the basketball team won the NC in 2006 & 2007, hardly anyone in the Gator Nation took notice. Just look at the Florida forums on rivals. No basketball forum, no baseball forum, just a football forum.

I disagree. Even when Florida makes it to the championship level in baseball or basketball, their fans are apathetic. Look at our football team. We have always supported them and when they got to low level bowls, our fans buy plenty of tickets. Baseball success is kind of new to the BBN, but I think we will support Coach Minge and the baseball Wildcats!Lets be honest, theres a large portion of the Big Blue Nation who is the same way towards basketball. This board itself is a good example. There are only about 15-20 regular posters on here but the minute UK made the regional there were long last fans all of a sudden. I am glad however that fans took notice on the baseball team.
