You did it last year, and I think you have a better team this year.

It's possible. I DO think we will want a bit of revenge, though, so it could be a tougher task this year.

Its hard to say who finishes where in the east standings. I think Georgia is the best team in the east. They have a tough schedule. Tennessee is a good team that is getting better. Their fans need to get over the Oklahoma loss. Mizzou still sucks but has an easy schedule again. I think they finish 2nd in the east behind Georgia.

Oh really?

I would bank more on Florida losing 5/6 to Tenn, Ole Miss, Mizz, LSU, Georgia, and FSU.

Lets be realistic, you have struggled with eastern Carolina and Kentucky. Florida is bad, go sit in the corner.




Ummmm....first, he is a Tennessee fan. Second, I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

All this talk is moot right now. Mid October will let us all know how the east is shaking out.

They would then have to pray that everyone else in the east, including Georgia, lost 2 games.

Not likely, IMO.


I agree with this.

UF might get lucky enough to finish 4th in the East.

-80 yards of Offense in the second half against a slow UK defense.

-Trash run game. Trash passing game.

-Ofer on 3rd down attempts in the 2nd half

-0 points scored in the 2nd half and 7 of the total 14 points might as well have been scored scored by the defense. Against Kentucky. Kentucky.

Pedestrian, peons, plebian, poors and trash are all terms that come on to mind when thinking of Floridas offense.

Might get lucky and beat South Carolina though

A small chance this year, but Florida clearly is on their way back. IMO yall made a great hire. Anything can happen in the UGA game....historically both teams play up/down to each other in Jax.

I wanna say we win the east going away this year but.....yeah

So what will be your excuse when Florida beats Tennessee for the 11th year in a row?

The refs? Coaching? Just not enough talent yet?

It's funny, before the season Tennessee fans said "Florida is going to be in the bottom of the SEC with Vandy. Even Kentucky is better than them."

After week one: "Oh it's just New Mexico State. They'll finish like 11th or 12th in the SEC and 6th in the East"

After ECU: "Y'all are going to lose to Kentucky"

After Kentucky: "It's just Kentucky! We're going to beat y'all in the swamp! Y'all aren't gonna finish better than 4th in the East"

So after we beat Tennessee this week, what will your narrative be?

While I love the enthusiasm, why don't we let the games play out. Georgia is likely not near as good as they displayed against South Carolina.

I still have reservations about this team that only some consistency can alleviate.

What's our narrative after we whip your no offense having arse?

Over indulging and fricking your women in a vintage "Florida sucks,Spurrier swallows" T-shirt, obviously.

Tennessee could hold our offense to a single yard and still find a way to lose.

Don't deflect. Answer the question. Florida hasn't had an offense in four years and it didn't seem to help Tennessee.

11 in a row, bitch

I never thought you were gonna lose to Kentucky, I actually didn't think it would be as close as it was.

That you're still a liar who helps perpetuate malicious and completely untrue lies about Tennessee's fanbase.


I'm not confident enough to say we're gonna beat Florida, we should, but we find ways to lose every time. But lemme ask you this, are you prepared to handle the assault from the Vol fans should this game not go the way you think it will?


I've been dealing with Gator fans my entire life, I can handle the arrogance, can you?

Clearly FL hasn't need an O the past 4 years to beat TeN.

Florida made the correct coaching hire, and is on the upside, but we have significant problems in the offensive line to be competitive in offense. I honestly think that Grier is going to get hurt with the way he is playing, and the protection he is provided. It doesn't matter what you have in RBs and QB, if you don't have a OL, you offense is going to be bad. I blame Muschamp for completely neglecting and destroying our O, no recruitment of the OL for years has come back to haunt us in a big way. This is a rebuilding year. We are on the right track. I'm going to be very happy with an 8 win season. I expect 7 wins, but that is all.
