How is it ridiculous to say UF wins by 18? Our worst team in 30 years beat UK in CWS by 17

That was also probably UK's worst team in about 30 years.
That said, it's totally ridiculous to say UF wins by 18.
Personally, I think they win by 30+.

Looking at the scores of the past 28 games, I'd say UF blowing UK out tomorrow wouldn't shock me.

It wouldn't shock me either.
Let me say it again for good measure.
UF WINS BY 30+

Kentucky is improved but it's all about recruiting rankings. People want to believe it's an exact science, therefore Kentucky should be rising dramatically. It's all about QB play and they have a good one.

Literally the dumbest way to handicap a game. Do you run into things often?

If UF only wins by 30, I'll be surprised. We are terrible this year.

Why not Kentucky?

More than winning 28 times in a row, Florida has a new coach who is not a complete idiot. The defense is at nearly full strength and the offense is showing signs of life. If Florida loses this game, I will be extremely surprised. I'll be surprised if Florida wins this by less than 10.

What has he done, at UF, to make you believe he's not a complete idiot?

Their players are bigger and stronger and faster than they have been in year's past
They have one of the best QB's in the SEC
They played hard in every game last year - it really does look like Stoops is changing the culture and mentality, just as Franklin did in Nashville not too long ago.
UF may win for the 29th time in a row, but it won't be a cakewalk

Off the field, he got the job when the recruiting class was ranked 96th and in 2 months he managed to salvage the class and have a top 20 class in the nation, got a new IPF built, new locker rooms, new dorms, he's done a good job of rebranding and marketing the program via social media and helping repair the perception of the program through what he has said. On the field, he's shown complex passing schemes, vast improvement in QB play, he's shown he knows what kind of things that need to be corrected in practice. He has said all the right things so far, and it will be a very encouraging sign when he goes into Commonwealth Stadium tomorrow night and puts on display the corrections we made in practice this week from last week.

That baw sure does have some jowls on him. Looks a little downy. That's why he's a coaching savant, though. UF fans agree.

I try not to care that much about sports, because if I turned out like half the people on this board, I'd have to kill myself. There's more to life than college football.

I'm not sure why Gator fans expect the discipline to be outstanding this week. Your offense consists of a bunch of inexperienced offensive linemen that include like, what, 3 true freshmen on it? And you expect them to be disciplined on the line from start to finish? Probably won't happen, it's youth.
Best case scenario is that this time, you won't have a RB doing the throat slash BS.
Also, for the Gator fan that said that UK hasn't shown greatness, consider this.
At no point in your game against ECU did you look like you were going to blow the doors of of them, and you didn't.
Kentucky, on the other hand, against teams that are better than New Mexico State and East Carolina, has put up over 300 yards of offense in the first half of both games, led both games 24-7 at halftime, allowed an average of 91.5 rushing yards and 87.5 passing yards in the first half of those games.
In the first game, during the 2nd half, Kentucky didn't look like that again. In the 2nd game, during the last defensive possession, and the last offensive possession, UK was executing like they were in the 1st half of those games. I feel like one of the only reasons that we didn't execute well to start the 2nd half is because we had two holding penalties to start 2 consecutive drives, and we couldn't get things moving.
You can't tell me that you wouldn't be optimistic about your team if they put up 300 yards of offense in the first half of 2 consecutive games though, while holding teams to 7 points.

I'm just sitting back and watching the shite show. I'm not much for shite talking this season, except to that South Carolina jackass last week.
