You feel the sweat dripping down your forehead as you toss the covers off and sit up in bed. Your eyes quickly dart from side to side. It's the same nightmare you've had since the night the Orange and Blue Game ended in April, when your world seemingly turned black. You know the one where you pass by a completely empty Ben Hill Griffin Stadium so many times that you start believing there never will be another football game in Gainesville. The one where every time you flip the television channel and there's no football, you think it's never coming on again.
College football is life in Gainesville.
It's all anyone cares about no matter the time of year. And it's creeping closer. Monday, most UF freshmen football players reported for Summer B classes. You know absolutely nothing about weightlifting, aren't even interested, but heard a rumor that Jevon Kearse signed up for the class. Just being able to share a class period with a football player is better than looking at his picture in those preseason magazines.
