Vince knew how to get the best out of them. We were not the most talented back in the day, but Vince coached em up and they played beyond their talent. The 1966 UF game was a good example. They came in on a roll and a future Heisman winner with Steve Spurrier he was so mad after that lost that he spent the rest of his like putting every thought of his day into beating Georgia, and demonstrating his total lack of class, by running up scores on every team he ever got down. He will go down in the history of the SEC as the most classless coach to ever coach the game.
