N then he says it doesn’t bother him either way. and it sounds like he’s giving a nod to Sander’s tip to the middle kids (college debt) and Trumps famous wall. “Flipping” could literally mean flipping burgers. N it also seems like “stop flipping for the enemies” could be the smear campaign the corporations use to not allow minimum wage to go up to 15 dollars. I really like the bridge bc it shows hypocrisy of war. People are now just a rebel for the fun of it. Now, we just complain about the corrupt system we’re apart of. Those were actually something to fight for politically. The chorus is almost making fun of SJWs when he mentions the 1960s which was the Vietnam protests, civil rights for blacks. He puts them on a shelf in case he needs to protect her. his hands used to be for fighting, now they’re purpose is to care for his child. It sounds like the lyricist is done with fighting in this current political environment especially when he mentions he has a little baby. Your love is an abyss for my heart to eclipse, now Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, yeah (Ooh woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now) Might've had your fill, but you feel it still Leave her with a baby sitter, mama, call the grave digger His kick will certainly go down as a big one in school history, but whether it will ever usurp Spurrier’s, well, let’s see how Florida finishes the season first.Think I'll dust 'em off, put 'em back up on the shelf Hardin hit a season-long field goal from 43 yards on homecoming to win the SEC East for a Gators team that has been starving for that type of success for the last six years. Still, Hardin entered the contest 14 of 29 for his career on field goals with a long of 37. How does that compare to what Hardin did Saturday against Vanderbilt?Ĭonsider that Hardin has been in head coach Jim McElwain doghouse for most of the season, despite the fact that McElwain has praised his strong leg and ability to help Florida in a big way with his booming kickoffs. Spurrier – who finished the contest with two touchdowns, a 47.4-yard punting average and the game-winning field goal – subsequently beat Purdue’s Bob Griese for the award but a two-to-one vote. It just so happens that Heisman Trophy voters received their ballots last week, and the Gators’ press box was packed with media members that all saw Spurrier heroically lead his team to a victory. He made it, of course, and Florida the game. Spurrier claims he asked Graves for the opportunity to kick the field goal, but as Graves remembers it, Spurrier gave him no choice and just took the field and lined up for the attempt. With 2:12 remaining, head coach Ray Graves decided to kick a 40-yard field goal. The Gators earned themselves another chance but saw their subsequent offensive drive stall out before they could reach the end zone. Spurrier, who was dominant in the game and throughout the season, scored a one-yard touchdown to put UF up 27-20, only for AU to come right back down the field and tie the game at 27. It probably won the Heisman for me, but it didn’t win us the SEC.”Īs a bit of a refresher, an undefeated Gators took on the Tigers on homecoming in Gainesville, Florida, needing two victories to secure the SEC Championship. If we’d ha won the next week, mine might have been bigger. That was a championship kick! We didn’t win any championships that week (in 1966). He continued: “That field goal was bigger than the one I kicked back in ’66. “He’s got to be a hero,” Spurrier told Martin. Steve Spurrier‘s Heisman Trophy honor in 1966 was attributed to his stellar play as quarterback and punter for the Florida Gators, but many believe it was a clutch field goal he kicked to beat Auburn late in the season that put him over the top and made him the easy choice for the award.ĭuring an interview with long-time Florida scribe Buddy Martin this week, Spurrier said that kick – one of the most important moments in school history – was nothing compared to the one Gators redshirt sophomore Austin Hardin made last Saturday.
