BCS National Title Game: Gators are CHOMPions

It was the perfect end to a great year of sports with the Florida Gators being the first team in NCAA history to win the National Basketball and Football titles in the same year. And what a way to win the football title – annihilating No.1 Ohio State Buckeyes 41-14!!

I had been screaming hoarse throughout the season that the Buckeyes were overrated and the Gators deserved to be No.1 after facing way tougher opponents in the SEC. With teams such as Tennessee, LSU, Arkansas and Alabama to contend with and playing against a great team like FSU every season as an out of conference opponent, and beating them all in the same season, the Gators were a more deserving team.

The Buckeyes dominated the game for all of 16 seconds from kickoff. After that, they didn’t even get time to figure out as to what hit them. The explosively quick Florida defense was something that the Buckeyes had never encountered (and will never encounter in the Big Ten conference) and this became evident as their quarterback Troy Smith kept getting hit from behind.

If the defense was relentless, the offense was spot on! The two quarterbacks strategy of Urban Meyer was something the Buckeyes had no answer to. Chris Leak silenced his critics by coming good in the big game and Tim Tebow has the Buckeyes scampering with his rushing skills.
