This is a different position for this team. No expectations, everyone is expecting them to lose, nobody giving them a shot.

Maybe they'll come out motivated and play well. If we win, it'll be because Mac coached circles around Orgeron (like we all know he could do if every other factor was equal) and our guys execute the calls that our coaches make. I think we could do it

Yep, a lot of talk that'll be on a lot of boards, too. McElwain has shown us that he can overperform with substandard talent and maintain top-shelf talent. We just have to execute and outcoach Orgeron who appears to have stumbled into a loaded team.

When you celebrate your own team losing, no one gives a flying frick what you have to say.

Defense, outside of two games, has been breaking records. There has literally been zero drop-off since Muschamp left and I'd even say they're outperforming at some levels.

The only time they seem to get overwhelmed is when the offense isn't getting first downs, outside of that, it's been totally lights out.

On offense: We don't even have top-shelf talent.

At any level. Maybe our one five star player on the offensive line, who has looked pretty damn good?

McElwain was left damn near nothing on Offense and has Maintained the Defense. You guys expected too much, like most stupid fans.

Oh get that weak shite out of here. I've never done that. Not to mention what I said is what you Coach Mac blowhards have been saying since Tennessee week.

Well I mean, his offenses have been the best since 2008 and is it so hard to actually talk well about the team?

We're not where we were, but we're also not worried about bowling every year so it's a step up.

We score touchdowns and we have posters here who say: ''Coulda scored that touchdown better.''

It's just white noise at this point, and it really does feel like you guys are rooting against us at every point if only to sate your chimpish attitude to be right without looking at anything in context.

Link where anyone said we can score TDs better. I've said all year the offense hasn't improved that much with a far easier schedule. No it's called apathy. We all don't want UF to lose it's that us realists have seen enough to know what to expect from this staff and team. They'll come out and maybe score on the opening drive but once the game goes off the script of the first few plays the mistakes, bad playcalls, zero fire/fight and zero adjustments occur. Its happened. Every. Single. Game. A dysfunctional offense and good defense that falters against average to great teams.

Its pretty to break records when you play teams like this:
Umass: 2-8
NTX: 4-6
UK: 5-5
MIZ:3-7
UGA:6-4 our best win
SCAR:5-5
VU: 4-6


29-41 is our Wins W-L record. We got smoked against the two teams that were decent.

Mac has his players and his staff yet the offense has done the exact same thing with an easier schedule. Idgaf what he did at Bama. Not having top shelf talent is Macs direct responsibility because he dictates who to hire and who they get. If you want to compare Bama I guess we can see what lane is doing with Hurts and 3 FR/SP starting on the OL and 7-8 in their 2 deep. Is lane a good hc? No. Mac hasn't maintained the defense because that includes maintaining the talent level and ours is about to fall off a cliff.

I expected something better than leaving Treon Harris to the wolves rather than put anyone else in like 6'5 Jacob Guy or change your scheme to fit TH. I expected an offensive coach to fix an offense he's paid millions to fix and yet, aw shucks I got this instead:

2016:
National Rank: SOS #67
#95 Total Offense 377
#72 Passing Yards per game 224
#95 Rushing yards per Game 152
#83 PPG 26
#127 RZ Offense

2015: SOS #19
#112 total O 334
#86 in passing 207.1
#113 Rushing Yards per game 126.9
#100 PPG 23
#125 in RZ Offense

We've improved 3 PPG and 43 yards of offense against the #67 ranked SOS according to Sagarin compared to 2015's #19 SOS. Factor in the disaster of defensive recruiting and game mismanagement you could probably see why we have zero faith in Mac. He's a mediocre coach who can't recruit great talent at the state's flagship college, in the best conference, in the state with the best HS talent. He's garbage.

Well I mean, I remember a time where an FCS team beat us without completing a pass.

It's not like we haven't played horrible teams in the past, but you know, like I said: He could walk on water and you'd fault him for not knowing how to swim.

Comparing Mac to Muschamp doesn't change the fact that he's a bad coach and awful recruiter. Again he's just as bad as WM in my book. The standard to me is SOS-Meyer. He doesn't walk on water so I have nothing to worry about. You seem to think anything but WM is fine. I bet you thought Zook was a great coach too. I do know that he's laughing all the way to the bank though. One golden butter smile at a time. Thanks Foley.

Zook could recruit his arse off though.

One of the biggest reasons we won in 06 is because Zook left Meyer a loaded roster, coupled with the additions of Tebow, Harvin, Brandon James, etc..

It was a great win against an average LSU team. Let's see how he does against Bama and in recruiting. Right now it does look great. Gargle my nuts ATLgator.
