Here’s a whole mess of headlines from Florida today:

Extra!  Extra!  Percy Harvin’s injured ankle is improving.  “The great news in the training room today, it’s very positive, very positive, a lot of thumbs up, including from the player, a big thumbs up, a smile on his face,” chattered Urban Meyer.

A key match-up to watch on Saturday will be between Florida’s Pouncey twins and Alabama’s behemoth nose tackle Terrence Cody.

Here’s a Great story from Meyer on the recruitment of Tim Tebow and how it would have “set the program back 10 years” if UF hadn’t landed him.

Speaking of Tebow, it was his promise after the Ole Miss loss that started the Gators’ current roll.

There’s still a chance that the Gators could beat Alabama and STILL not make the BCS title game.  But those odds are extremely slim.

Here’s a “tale of the tape” comparison of UF and UA.

Undefeated Alabama’s players are saying all the right things about the fact that they’re now a 10-point underdog to Florida.  And I’m not believing a word of it.

Pat Dooley of The Gainesville Sun can’t understand why a 12-0 Bama team is getting so little respect.

Their offenses look like they come from two different centuries, but Nick Saban and Meyer have more in common than you might think.

The first quarter on Saturday figures to be a wild one.  Florida and Alabama have outscored their opponents in the first quarter by a combined score of 283-30.  Read that again.  And again.  That really is hard to fathom.

Here’s a quick scouting report on the Tide and their program.
