Even the Stadium is against UF
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- With the Gators playing the underdog role, it is only fitting that the seats inside University of Phoenix Stadium are half scarlet and half gray -- the same colors adorned by Ohio State.
While that was obviously not intentional (the stadium is home to the Arizona Cardinals, who wear similar colors to the Buckeyes), it is an ironic twist that no doubt gives the Gators just one more reason to feel like the world is against them.
Urban Meyer and the No. 2 Gators saw got a glimpse of the stadium for the first time today during media day.
When one reporter jokingly asked Meyer if he would tell his coaches that the stadium was painted for Ohio State, Meyer said he would try to use that to help motivate his players.
"There is a lot of stuff there," he said. "The pregame speech is not going to be hard."

I should point out that Jones originally referred to the seats as being "red" and gray. Any fan of "The" Ohio State University will punch you in the mouth if you refer to their colors as "red" or "silver."
I should point out that "men" like Timothy who argue about colors belong on the queer-eye show and are more likely to slap you than punch you. I hope the rest of "The" red and silver faithful are more worried about colors and pretty helmet stickers than the SEC champs.
It's time to demonstrate again to the world what the SEC already knows, that "The" Big 10 (Big 11) is a joke.
