I must have missed something...

Is it weird for teams to schedule a home-and-home series with a P5 team now?

Why our fricking administration thought this was a good idea is beyond me.

SEC teams that will lose: Tennesse, Kentucky, Florida (Fl St), and Texas A&M will lose to Arizona State.

Considering our trainwreck almost beat FSU in Tallahassee with Famous Jameis under center, I think UF certainly can beat FSU in Gainesville this year.

It's an ACC team. It's not UAB or Troy.

SEC should be the favorites in 2 and 4-8
1, 3, 9, 11 are all tossups
Florida is an underdog in 10, but may have a shot

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if the SEC wins at least 9 of those games.

For sure my belief. Would rather play crap teams in the ACC/Big 12/Pac 12/SEC for 3-4 games to get you ready for conference play than one top 25 team (who you could lose to) and 3 patsies.

You must have missed your fanbase trolling MSU for scheduling to play at UMASS in 2018.

Looking forward to watching this one. Is this Tennessee's opener or will they already have played a game?

There are a few games where you can honestly say the SEC team is an underdog going into the game.

My pick for a trap game, which the SEC team manages to escape mind you, is Georgia Southern vs Georgia. Georgia is light years ahead of GS in terms of talent but this is the Eagles Super Bowl. Hell its a couple of years worth of Super Bowls for them. Unless Georgia jumps on them right away it will be dogfight until late in the second half when Georgia pulls away.

Oh please. MSU gets made fun of because of the regularity that they agree to go play shite teams on the road. UMASS was just one more in the long line of nonsense.

2003 - @ Tulane
2003 - @ Houston
2005 - @ Tulane (Shreveport)
2006 - @ UAB
2007 - @ Tulane
2008 - @ La Tech
2009 - @ Middle Tennessee
2010 - @ Houston
2011 - @ UAB
2012 - @ Troy
2014 - @ South Alabama
2015 - @ Southern Miss
2016 - @ UMASS
2016 - @ BYU


Quit acting like it's not the sum of all parts that is the reason y'all catch so much shite.

It's not like Syracuse is some ACC powerhouse.

Well, to be fair, MSU is being made fun of for going to UMASS because they've only been a D1 school for 3 years.....3 whole years.

Please, tell me the last time UF has played a non-bowl OOC against a legit team outside of the state of Florida......



We've played Oregon, TCU, Wisconsin, UNC, Washington, etc..
