Michael's Bio

I attend the University of Florida, home of the best team in college football.

I've always been drawn to the competitiveness and drama of sports. I started watching the NBA closely around age 8 and I began watching the NFL shortly after. I've followed the PGA Tour since Tiger came along and I've been following college football for about 10 years. In the last few years I've starting watching college basketball frequently. I occasionally watch the big events in tennis, horse racing, and soccer.

Thanks to everyone who has read any of my Bleacher Report articles. I'm optimistic that I will have time to cover the NBA and the PGA Tour in the near future.

Thanks, Michael. That was definitely a great game. I hope the Gators stomp Oklahoma.

17 carries for 57 yards, that's 3.3 ypc. Take out his longest run and he only averaged 2.7 ypc.

Gators won because of their passing game. Tebow made big plays over the top when Bama stacked the box. So I guess I was right Tebow didn't beat us with the run.

Congrads on a big win today Michael. The Gator's & Tebow put it on us today. Now head on down to Miami and win it all!

Best of luck .. Jim

Michael - I'm looking forward to your Alabama-Florida article. Make sure to send me the link.

BTW, I do think Florida / LSU would've been a different game in Death Valley. Didn't LSU beat Florida in Baton Rogue last year? Obviously, they're both different teams, and I think Florida would've won, but it wouldn't have been the same game.
