Perhaps it will be enough for the Bucs to pull one out in a battle of rookie quarterbacks.Or the Bucs will find another way to lose. Unfortunately, a young team needs to learn how to win first and it's been a tough process for this band of Buccaneers.If Raheem Morris is retained for the 2010 season, job No. 1 will be to find a few veterans who can show the young cats how to win.. Even more impressive was the fact he netted three of his markers consecutively...all while on the penalty kill . Some, including the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, would say that's a shorthanded natural hat trick (others say you need to score all three goals in the same period). Any way you slice it, three consecutive shorties doesn't happen that often. In fact, a little bit of Sunday morning internet research reveals that it had happened just twice before in NCAA history Dec. 12, 1988: The Harvard Crimson would win the National Championship in March of 1989, but they made headlines earlier in the season during a game against Dartmouth. Junior C.J. 
Young scored the fastest three goals in the history of the program that day when he lit the lamp three times in 49 seconds. The goals came at the end and then beginning of a period, but were scored in succession. Going by gospel of Wiki, that's the first-ever shorthanded natural hat trick in NCAA history Oct. 4, 2009: The shorthanded natural hat trick is achieved at the Division III level for the first time in recorded history. Oswego State's Neil Musselwhite beats Brockport goalie Todd Sheridan four times , three of the goals coming while on the penalty kill.Those shorthanded tallies came in succession over a span of just 2 minutes of 59 seconds towards the end of the second and beginning of the third periods.

For the first time ever, at least from what I can remember, Tim Tebow broke down mentally and dripped tears before thousands at the Georgia Dome, where you couldnt argue it was an electric, national title atmosphere.The Florida Gators encountered an interesting challenge, a rigid matchup against a superior opponent, and Alabama bombarded the well-balanced villains of the Southern Eastern Conference.Instantly, it smeared a potential dream of creating a historic finish in NCAA history. It smeared an inconceivable dynasty built on Tebows inspirational leadership and unparalleled sprints, stiff-arms and jump passes. Of course, the country such as ESPNs College Gameday analysts Lee Corso or Kirk Herbstriet, predicted the Gators are victorious crusaders.This country had forgotten about a potent and dynamic program in the same conference.

This country paid less attention to an entire state, which admires football and spends their average Saturday afternoons rooting on a systematic program, brilliantly built by Coach Nick Saban.That would be the Alabama Crimson Tide, a robust program aiming for a national title amid their endeavor. It earned hype as the biggest SEC showdown in conference history, simply for the two powerhouse teams that define college football.Without Florida-Bama in a fray, the game is dull and the BCS system suddenly becomes elusive. If theres no Florida-Bama, there isnt a point for having a conversation on football.For a few years now, it has been interesting watching the SEC as the Deep South kept us guessing and produced action-packed, high-powered excitement. Before our very eyes, Florida is no longer as threatening or powerful. Instead, the boys from Sweet Home Alabama have convenient tools to win the national title next month.After pounding the Gators, not allowing fans to perform the Gator Chomp gestures, emotions flared in an unusual way. Getting used to a well-balanced program isnt as bad as it seems.
Yet, Tebow wont arrive to perform his erratic jump passes or another remarkable finish, Alabama has similarities with a relentless rush attack engaged to confront amid an onslaught all times on turf. Such as playing the Gators, when almost every possession was blown sprints, spins, stiff-arms, and blistering speed of tailback Mark Ingram.His three touchdown effort set a mental tone in the game, to whereas the Tide dominated until time expired and emerged a celebration. Of course, a delirious Alabama crowd embraced a spirited moment, cheering on the boys from Sweet Home Alabama. Well, the program finally has a resembling coach of Bear Bryant.
