The Florida Gators have now won 21 games in a row. Let me repeat: 21 games in a row.

The Gators' last loss was Sept. 27, 2008. That is ridiculous. Why this team catches so much heat is unreal.  

Yes, I understand their offense is not what it once was. Their
red-zone touchdown percentage is horrible; but they win games. Winning
a game ugly is still winning.

Would Gator fans rather have the offense put up 40 points and lose? I don't think so.  I can think of a team that we play this Saturday that has done exactly that.

Everyone is waiting for this offense to start clicking, but guess what?
It's not gonna happen. Would you rather have your team win five games
in a row by 30 points, or would you rather have your team win 20 in a
row by a mere field goal each game?

Experts and fans alike need to come to terms with the fact that this
offense is not great. The Gator offense is not explosive. The Gator
offense is not going to do anything spectacular. The Gator offense is
not anything special.

So what? Get over it.

The Gator defense is better now than it was in 2006. This Gator
defense is better than it was last year as well.  Everybody is so worried about
the offense, we've all overlooked the best defense in the nation. This
team puts itself in a position to allow the defense to win games.

On 4th-and-2, on their own 28, with a minute and a half left in the
game, make no mistake—the Gators are punting. They will put it on their
defense to win the game. Why everyone is talking about their offense is
unbelievable.

Last year, everyone seemed to talk about the Oklahoma Sooners'
record-breaking offense. The Sooners offense put up 712 points on the
season, averaging 54.7 points per game. They ended their season by
putting up over 60 points in each of their final five games.

Their Heisman-winning quarterback threw for 4,800 yards and 48
touchdowns to just six interceptions. They had two running backs put up
over 1,000 yards of offense.

How could anyone stop a record breaking offense like this? The rest
is history. Florida held Oklahoma to a mere 14 points in the BCS
championship game. In that game, the Gators did not put up eye-popping
numbers on offense. Their defense won the game.  

With that said, stop waiting for this offense to all of the sudden
become explosive. Let's face it, the Gator offense is not as great as last year's. But the Gator defense is great.
It is everything you could want in a defense. It wins games, and it
does not allow teams to get into the end zone.

Throughout the history of college football, many things have
changed. Teams have risen and fallen. Quarterbacks have come and gone.
Running backs have gotten bigger and faster. Records have been broken.

One thing remains the same, though.

Defense wins championships.
