Apology to Gators?

When FL Gators exceed your lowly predictions will you apologize to them?

Classy.

Love ya buddy. Been with you for a long time. Nice to hear you spend MORE time on the broadcast selling us then telling us anything relevant about basketball. Can I send you some $ to get you back to being you again instead of JT Barnum? Keep pimping

Not enough Mids

I love the show but rarely gives any love to the mids. How about a Kent State, Northern Kentucky, Ohio U, Stony Brook, Southern Miss every once in awhile?
