Not yet.
You are not yet ready to take on the master and the mentor.
After Alabama's 38-10 victory over first-year coach Will Muschamp and his Florida Gators, it is clear that The Force remains with the Dark Lord of the SEC-- Darth Saban.
This time, the Alabama Death Star landed in an inflamed Swamp Saturday night and once again doused Florida's football fire. Florida may have a new coach, but Alabama still knows how to give the Gators an old-fashioned SEC seal-clubbing. The Crimson Tide knocked Florida quarterback John Brantley out of the game, suffocated UF's vaunted running attack and hushed the second-largest crowd in Gator football history.
In the last three seasons, the Gators have been unbeaten when facing Alabama and each time they've been Swamp-stomped by scores of 32-13, 31-3 and now 38-10.
Everyone chuckled at the Tampa TV reporter who earlier this week had the audacity to ask Muschamp if his relationship with his mentor, Alabama coach Nick Saban, was similar to a cinematic Star Wars battle pitting "Master vs. Padawan."
"I don't know what a Padawan is," Muschamp replied, turning on the Southern charm. "You didn't call me a bad name, did you?"
