11:09 pm
they shut it down in the second -- >> gary: i think they lost their focus. they didn't need it really. they tried -- they were playing so much defense. florida was going for it on fourth down every time. they didn't have the ball a lot. >> verne: nick saban and urban meyer will meet at midfield. they are competitors, but good friends. a lot of respect between these two. some scene for this tussle in tuscaloosa. 31-6. back to bryant-denny in a moment.

>> verne: greg mcelroy is still undefeated aed a starting quarterback. we go down to tracy. >> tracy: coach, total domination on both sides of the ball, but it was your young defense that answered the call today. what can you tell me about their performance? >> coach: well, you know, we made the plays when we had to. you have to give florida a lot of credit they did a great job of keep coming back in the second half. we got them stopped in the red zone and got some timely turnovers. but i think we competed well today. and played better. i was really proud of them for that. >> tracy: are you surprised at all with the lopsided score? >> coach: well, i think the turnovers had a lot to do with that. they had the ball three times in the red zone and it's good red zone defense and getting turnovers. a great win for the team. i'm not necessarily pleased with the way we played in the second half, but we came out against a very good team. i'm proud of the players.
