I mean come on they were just coming off a championship season in 06 right.  So after 07 and finishing 9-4 the goal was for the Gators to improve and WOW did they ever. 2008 was magical, despite a small hiccup against Ole Miss (I think they rebounded ok, right?) The Gators picked off 26 passes(best in NCAA), were 4th in the nation in scoring D and 9th in total defense.  How's 2009 lookin??? Well that defense is BACK, that rediculous secondary from 08 as well as those headhunting LB's. That D Line that's got Ends that are quicker than some running backs. Yep they're all back and hungry as hell.  The leader of the defense is Brandon Spikes, the MLB passed up his likely first round draft pick in the NFL, and for good reason. He and he rest of the leaders on the team truely believe that this team is going to repeat.  Well it's obvious that the defense is stacked to the gills but what about the offense??
