Autographed Dallas Baker and Urban Meyer Photo - & Framed Gatorade Shower 16x20

Product Description

In 2006, the senior delivered career highs for catches (60), receiving yards (920), and TD grabs (10), and was a First Team All SEC selection. Baker's 25-yard TD gave the Gators a 21-14 win over rival Florida State. The following week the Gators defeated Arkansas to win the SEC Championship Game for the first time in six years. They would go on to topple the heavily favored Ohio State Buckeyes and capture college football's national championship, with Baker catching a touchdown pass for Florida's first score in a 41-14 rout on January 8, 2007. Baker's uncanny ability to score touchdowns has earned him the nickname "Dallas Baker, the Touchdown Maker" by legendary Gator radio announcer Mick Hubert. In his second season at Florida, Meyer turned the Gators' fortunes around. He coached the Gators to a 13-1 (8-1 in the SEC) record, with the one loss coming on the road at Auburn, and SEC wins at home against South Carolina, Kentucky, Alabama, and LSU; on the road at Tennessee and Vanderbilt, with another win over rival Georgia. After clinching the SEC East, the Gators won the SEC Championship Game on December 2nd over Arkansas by a score of 38-28. Despite the loss to Auburn, Florida was ranked 4th in the BCS before their final game of the regular season against Arkansas. This win, coupled with then second-ranked Southern California's 13-9 loss to unranked rival UCLA on the same day catapulted Florida into the BCS National Championship Game where they routed the heavily favored Ohio State 41-14. It is the first BCS bowl berth for the Gators since the Orange Bowl that capped off the 2001 campaign, and Florida's first national championship appearance and victory since winning the title in 1996.
