UF hopes to avenge 2007 loss
Oct. 9, 2008All week long, No. 11 UF has been reliving its worst nightmare.
All week long, No. 11 UF has been reliving its worst nightmare.
Wide receiver Percy Harvin is expected to play Saturday against LSU, UF coach Urban Meyer said Wednesday.
Percy Harvin hasn't escaped the injury bug just yet. The junior playmaker sat out his second consecutive practice Tuesday with a nagging ankle injury but is expected to resume workouts today and is expected to be ready for Saturday's matchup with LSU.
It's been one year, and UF still can't forget.
The UF offense may still be looking for its identity, but its statistics continue to show signs of a talented core.
Don't expect No. 11 UF to pile up rushing yards this weekend like it did in Saturday's 38-7 win at Arkansas.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - Let's forget about numbers for a second.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - Arkansas entered Saturday's contest dead last in the Southeastern Conference in rushing offense, averaging a meager 90.5 yards per game - more than 20 yards fewer than the next-lowest team, Mississippi State.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - It's the UF philosophy: when one playmaker goes down, another steps right up.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - It was as surreal a second quarter as Urban Meyer had ever witnessed.

Suddenly, statistics do not seem so important.
UF coach Urban Meyer confirmed after Wednesday's practice that several of his players will not take part in the Arkansas game this weekend.
Saying that Bobby Petrino's debut as a Southeastern Conference coach has been a disappointment would be an understatement.
As the last of the Rebel yells faded from Gainesville on Sunday night, a UF football team still reeling from an upset loss to Mississippi the day before took to the practice field.
