Was it an Eye Gouging, or an Eye Poking?

 
Regardless it was bad behavior, but I do feel like this was highly sensationalized by the media. When I think of eye gouging I think of an eye being ripped from its socked, or Oedipus using clothes pins to effectively blind hisself. The Georgia player suffered no injuries, making me think this was more of an eye poking.

Is this a moot point? No. I was poked in the eyes. My eyes were gouged out! Which one do you think was cause injury? Gouging should, but there was no medical attention seeked by the Georgia victim. This makes me define it as a an eye-poking. Unfortunately this false, sensationalized label could very likely prevent Spikes from getting some awards.

I can not imagine Spikes actually trying to rip someones eyes out of their socket. That is totally unreasonable. To me it appeared the combination of the face mask and Spike's gloves interferred, making him move around trying to get to the eyes.

It was definitely deliberate, but people should not get to carried away. Dirty things happen all the time (in fact Spikes was victim earlier in that game) but they are not usually seen. For example, the OSU Tebow stomp at the end of their 41-14 loss. No one remembers because they already had a story (can be found on youtube.)

The point I am getting at is this. The difference between punching someones teeth out and slapping someone is the same as gouging and eye out, and poking an eye.

Gators season close and B. Spikes

 
    The Gators sure seem to have it all together for another run at the National title.  We already have a bid into the SEC championship against Alabama, which is gonna be a better game than the National Championship anyways, and our defense and special teams is more dominant than almost any other unit I can think of in the NCAA.  The one weak point is our offense, for all the talented weapons that we have the Gators sure don't seem to be producing the explosive powerhouse we all thought they would be, especially by this point in the season. 
    As for Brandon Spikes, I don't know what the extenuating circumstances that surrounded the event were (which I doubt anyone but the players involved really know) but the fact that he took the physicality of football and turned it into a senseless violent act not reflective of the team, the sport or (I'm sure) Brandon himself.

How should I feel about this Brandon Spikes thing

 
I've gone back and forth.  The two extremes for Gator fans are summarized pretty good here.

Rest of Season

 
Do we have a chance of losing a game before the sec title game?  how does this years team match up with that great alabam defense.  i think our offense against georgia finally started to look a little more like last year.  We lost a lot of great players in harvin, and murphy and it looked like for most of the season urban was adjusting to that a little too much instead of doing the same types of things he did last year.  with his type of offense and the way he recruits it should look very similar year to year
