Vanderbilt has played 4 teams. They played a horrible game against USCe, that honestly, they should have won, but played so bad in the 2nd half of that game it cost them.

Georgia Tech just handled them, but GT is a decent team this year.

They played hard in their win against WKU and beat a decent Middle Tennessee State team 47-24.

It's an early game, after a tough loss, so I know some people are worried about a UF hangover. It should be about 75 degrees at kick off, so it should be a nice day for football. I am a bit worried about Florida's conditioning though this year, after they looked tired and flat most of the 2nd half in Knoxville.

If Vandy is smart, they will learn from UT and cover the deep pass. That means UF will have to execute on the ground and in the short to intermediate routes over the middle to win. They haven't proven to be very good at that with Appleby in there.

I think it'll be an ugly game, but UF grinds it out, something like 22-13 or 29-13 (maybe adding a TD late).

If vandy can run heavy sets consistently and we don't wrap up we could be In trouble. Their D is good. That said 17-13 UF.

30s - 10s (above 30, below or at ten for Vandy).

I'm thinking this will be like our game against Mizzou last year. Game never really in doubt, but Gators never really lead by much and get a late TD to win 21-7.

This team is a mess. It's like no one knows wtf to do. Thompson's got the vision of Stevie Wonder, Appleby is chucking the ball 3 yards out of bounds on deep routes and Summers must've taken the OL and staff fishing or to see his grandkids. Vandy is manhandling this team. Mac needs to stick with Scarlett and Perine.

Putting Thompson in for a series of downs when all you need is one 1st down was ridiculous. I get where Mac is trying to go with the backs, but it's clear that Scarlett makes the offense work better and Perine is a good sidekick.

And I think it is time to move on from Summers as well.

The running back situation is a shite show. They need to pick a fricking starter, and then pick a back up. UF doesn't need 4 RB,s and Thompson and Cronkrite aren't good enough right now compared to THompson and Perine to justify taking carries away.

The rest of the offense you can see CLEARLY is missing their starting QB. Appely fumbled one TD and missed Callaway wide fricking open on another one. UF should have won that game 24-6, which would have been right in line with what most of us thought would happen.

But Appleby is so fricking bad he almost single handedly lost the game.

PRAY TO GOD that LDR is back for LSU or UF is going to get boat raced.

He's obviously just a bandaid, LDR was our man from the beginning. By next year Trask and Franks should be sufficiently prepared.

Our OLine is just .

OL on the left side should just quit the team, they would be just as useful.

The right side has played much better IMO.

The whole line is bad though, not 2015 bad but still bad.

Yeah a little harsh - I guess I'm just tired of watching them play so badly.

No, I get it-- its especially frustrating to watch FSU and UGA lose but seem to find awesome RS and True Frosh QBs while let's be real outside of one half vs. Ole Miss we've never looked that good on offense.
