Does he have a run that is similar to Steve Spurrier's run in the 90s?

Keep in mind that he has already surpassed Steve in National Championships and his winning percentage at this point in his career is very close to what Steve Spurrier's was going into his 5th season.

When UF made this hire in 2005 I stated that UF had hit the jackpot on this hire and was lambasted and ridiculed like crazy.

In the 1990s, Steve Spurrier's dominance was in large part due to SEC defenses having no answer for his offensive system. Does Meyer's spread eventually do the same thing?

The spread, like all offenses, will eventually die off, but UF will be a MNC contender as long as UM is the coach, IMNSHO.

Without Tebow, Meyer wouldnt be where he is now, as far as wins and rings. They wouldnt have won the NC last year.

After this year, I see Fla going back to losing 2 to 4 games a year. (unless he gets another Tebow, which is unlikely)

He may win another SECC or two and then he bolts for ND.

Maybe. Last year was like a lot of years in the 90's. UF was dominant and beat Bama in the SECCG. The mid 90's were a lot of UF beating up on Bama and everyone else was most often not in the picture. LSU was aweful and AU was inconsistant (and on probation). UGA and UT never had a chance against Spurrier for a good part of the decade.

I think Meyer is a better coach than Saban and Bama will not beat them while he is there. LSU is the other team that can dethrone UF right now, but it is not going to be easy and I think this year will tell a lot about just how good Miles is as a coach with Bama and UF at the same talent level as LSU now.
