The last time the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Florida Gators played in Atlanta with both Nick Saban and Jim McElwain coaching, the Tide left Tim Tebow in tears as the swamp dwellers went down 32-13. I expect a similar result from this Saturday's match-up.
I didn't want to call them "the swamp dwellers" in that last paragraph for no lesser reason than that I suspect they may take that moniker as a compliment. It wasn't meant as such. What I wanted to call them was "the panhandlers."
Am I the only one that thinks the phrase "Florida Panhandle" is a gross misappropriation of geographical nomenclature?
