GO GATORS: Beat Vandy!!

This weekend our Gators take on the Vanderbilt Commodores for our homecoming game! It should prove to be an exciting game based solely on the fact that it is homecoming. The Gators return to the Swamp for the first time in over a month, and unfortunately, we have a few more losses than the last time we played here.

Last year, the Gators went to Vanderbilt and beat them 31 to 17, led by Jeff Driskel's record-breaking performance with 177 yards on the ground and three rushing touchdowns. This year, Driskel will be watching from the sidelines, along with many other starting players. The Gators lost another offensive lineman to a season-ending injury this week in practice. However, the Commodores come in with the same record as us. Both teams have four wins and four losses, but the Commodores have won only one SEC matchup this season. With a homecoming crowd behind our beloved Gators in the Swamp, we should hopefully be able to take care of our opponent this weekend. After all, the Vegas odds have us favored to win by ten points.

The Game will kickoff at noon eastern time and can be viewed on Sun Sports. Regardless of how this season has gone so far, Muschamp is excited to get in front of a home crowd and get a win to end our three-game skid. This game has a lot more at stake then people realize at first glance. At this point, we need a victory to stay bowl eligible. Muschamp also has his job on the line, and a loss tomorrow would almost ensure that a new head coach will be headed to Gainesville next season. Make sure to tune in and watch the Gators return to action in the Swamp. Regardless of our team's record so far this season, there aren't many things more exciting than Florida football . GO GATORS!

Business Spotlight: ALTR


For today’s post I would like to kick-off a series of spotlights that we will be doing this year on local and start-up businesses. This first business features a Gator product, one I believe many people will enjoy!

While pursuing her MBA at UCF, Alexandra Gramatikas first proposed her business plan as a part of an annual Entrepreneurial Joust Business Plan Competition. Her company, based off of the winning plan for this competition and started with the prize money, is named ALTR.

ALTR carries button covers, which allow you to actually ALTR your garment. The company is UF licensed and does carry a UF-themed cover.  With this product, any garment can instantly be changed into Gator-garb, no need to buy a separate Gator-themed shirt.

This is a great idea and something that really can make life easier come gameday when everyone is always scouring their closets for orange and blue!
