The loss to Georgia hurts but it may actually get us in a BCS bowl.  If we win out with a quality win against F$U and assuming that Georgia goes to the CCG representing the East and is crushed by Alabama, Florida will almost assuredly have a high enough BCS ranking to get into a BCS bowl.  Had we won against Georgia and won out but were crushed by Alabama, we might not have gotten a BCS bowl offer.  If Georgia loses to Auburn and we win out, we will still have to play and look respectable against Alabama to get a BCS bowl.  Alabama has a defense that can make anyone look bad, so our chances might actually have improved with our Georgia loss.

 

Any other glass half full people out there today?  (Pardon the mixed metaphor, but it is Monday morning quarterback time.)

Heck, I was a glass half full before the game was played.

If we lose to Georgia but beat FSU, we will go to the Sugar Bowl (probably against Notre Dame).

I have assumed Alabama beating Georgia in the SEC title game.

Florida's route to the BCS Championship Game or the Sugar Bowl also is in the balance. It would be almost impossible to go to either bowl without winning the division.

In the latest BCS standings, Alabama is first, followed by UF, Kansas State, Oregon and Notre Dame. The SEC had four other programs in the top 25: Georgia (10th), Mississippi State (11th), South Carolina (13th) and Texas A&M (20th).
