I haven't seen any of Florida's games.Are they a good rushing team or are they heavy on the pass.

Do you think our defense we used against MSU and Ole Miss will be effective against them?

I'm much more concerned about power rushing teams.

They're heavy on the pass, but this is a team that eclipses us in talent. Trask is one of the best QBs in the nation, and the TE Pitts he throws to finds the endzone frequently and with ease. I'm not sure we have an answer for that combo.

They will play into our strengths as a defense. It'll be a test to see how good we really are for sure.

I think Trask is going to torch us like Mond did. I don't think we can line up in man coverage against without getting burned and they will find the holes in our zone and make us pay.

Good qbs make good defenses look bad and I'm afraid both Trask and Mac Jones will their on us at will.

Trask is going to be like Mond using cheat codes. Florida has some real weapons on offense. They're supposed to win this game going away, so it'll be encouraging if we make them sweat like we did Georgia. We've been way overperforming expectations and we're finally at least being taken seriously.

Florida's defense is quite suspect, but it seems to have improved throughout the year. Then again, so has our offense.

They aren’t bad when they do run it but they just don’t do it a whole lot. Pitts may be out but they have WRs galore. I don’t think Trask is very mobile and he’ll make some risky throws but they’ll definitely score a lot of points if we can’t get to him.

Wait, is Pitts out? This is news to me. That's Trask's #1 target. I know he has other capable receivers, but that's going to be a noticeable blow to their production.

Not sure Pitts will play against us. He took a vicious hit and looked like he got knocked out in the Georgia game. Left and didn't come back.

We might not get completely blown out if he doesn't play

Their backup TE scored later in the game though and looked just like him

They definitely have some athletes and Mullen knows how to call a game. Kedarious Toney reminds me a lot of Joe Adams.

I haven't watched them alot but the little I have where they seem to be different is they dont have the downhill running like the Aggies.

They seem to run more at the edge so I think we may be able to play more zone against them.

I could be wrong though...like I said havent watched them alot.

The Qb isn't a dual threat runner but he is a willing runner if there isn't an open reciever.

They have 6-6 Campbell to backup Pitts.

Their both absolute Freaks.

Just keep it close and keep getting better on offense at this point.

Yep, this is definitely a game where I'll come away happy as long as we put up a fight. I don't expect us to win or even keep it within 7-10 in the end result, but I do expect us to make them earn a hard fought win (opposed to years past when we were a pushover).

Trask is just too good and we dont have the depth to minimize his talent for an entire game. Our D will look good for the first half/3 quarters but tire out, and that's kinda to be expected.

I'll be happy if our offense is fairly productive and doesn't stall out on several 3 and outs, and our defense doesn't give up and stop hustling until the final whistle.

After A&M's tight end victimized us, I think Pitts is primed to have a big day. Not feeling great about this one

There's a pretty good chance Pitts doesn't play, and a lot of the UF fans seem to think he won't.

Doesn't mean his backup won't be awesome (hint: he is), but Pitts is arguably the best TE in CFB and that can't be replicated

We'll beat Mizzou and LSU. We'll lose to Florida and Bama.

5-5, and should be 6-4 (F you refs).

Bright days are ahead, in regards to Hog Football.

Yeah best chance would be jump on them early and force a turnover or two and see what happens at the end. Not optimistic about this one but this team has surprised me this far so we'll see.

That's huge for us. Yeah I saw their backup also has that rangy body that will give us fits.

One intangible I'm curious about is Felipe returning to Florida. He's played determined great football this season. I'm sure he'll be extra locked in. Could also see this as a letdown spot for Florida after an emotional win getting the UGA monkey off their back

I’m okay with this. Where does 5-5 with an sec schedule with 4 of your losses against top 10 teams get us in bowl season?

Most folks don't understand how the bowl system works anymore...

We would be in the group of 6 bowls, Texas, Belk, Liberty, etc..

The SEC office places us where they want us after minor consultation with the schools/bowl directors.

One thing the Liberty and Texas bowl doesn't want to do, is to take us this season... if they could get us the next couple without restrictions.. One thing the SEC office does is limit how many times a program goes to specific bowls in this grouping.
