We have some good backups.Our o line won't be as good as it was this year, but it wasn't as good as this year in 09, or 2011 either.Our defense should be a good bit better, and AJ and all of our rb's and wr's should be back.

What if he went 12-24 for a little over 100 yards, 1 TD, and 3 ints?
Still not 4 turnovers.

In that case, hopefully Driskel can play as good against Georgia next year as Murray did against Florida this year.

Are you really this ignorant?

Florida is tied for 6th in the nation in giveaways at 12. In case you don't know how to do math in Georgia, that's only 1 per game.

6 of those came in 1 game. Which means in the other 11, they turned the ball over only 6 times.


You must not be aware of the fact* that turnover margin is not sustainable from season to season. Expect a regression back to the mean in this department.

You just inadvertently advanced an argument for why Florida will not continue its success in 2013. Congrats.



*With ample data in support thereof. Look it up.

You are confusing fact with a tendency.

That it is a tendency is a fact.

So, Florida isn't DEFINITELY going to regress back to the mean in turnover margin, but teams like Florida this year -- that have favorable turnover margins -- do tend to regress back to the mean.

Again, you said it is not a fact that Florida would maintain the same turnover margin.

Unless you are looking into a crystal ball, that is not a fact, it is a prediction based on past tendencies.

What happens if next year Florida has the same turnover margin as this year? Is it still a "fact".

I'm not sure what you're confused about. I'll repeat the same sentence I wrote two minutes ago.

That it is a tendency is a fact.

So, yes it is a prediction based on tendencies. If Florida has the same turnover margin next year, this will be an exception to the rule. It will still be a fact that this tendency exists and is statistically relevant.

Florida's offense WILL be better next year because of who is coming in.

Floyd is probably gone. But Powell will be back from the ACL injury earlier this Spring, and so will Elam and Easley (sources say they told teammates before the FSU game that they are returning next year).

And Driskel will be better next year. One full year of experience under his belt.

Florida should be the favorite in the East. A&M drops off the schedule, but UF picks up Miami in the OOC schedule in the 2nd week of the season.

So:

Tough games @ Miami, @ LSU, vs. UGA, @ South Carolina, and vs. FSU.

Will be tough, but UF will certainly be capable of going to ATL next season and possibly the NCG.

Forgot to mention that UF will still have the best CB's in the country next season.

I don't know who they return but if they return most everyone then yes but their offense is not very good or at least it is inconsistent. I think they win the east next yr assuming they return everyone on defense.

Phew....thank God its not a flame thread...you had me worried for a minute....but I saw a rusted hook and wanted no part
