We never opened up and played hard until the Ole Miss loss.

Actually, winning in the SEC is not as difficult as some make it out to be. Beat Arky by 31, LSU by 30, Georgia by 39, SCAR by 40, Vandy by 28, UTenn by 24... pretty frickin easy.


Yes, and I guess they rolled Ole Miss and Alabama too. Alabama could have easily won that SEC Championship game, so it wasn't as easy as some of you are making it out to be.

I think Ole Miss could beat Florida 2/10. We match up well against them, and we have a perfect balance on offense.

Well if you win the SEC you have a good shot so they should have a real good chance

What you guys did was simple but we couldn't stop it- Direct snap to McCluster and he ran it up our guts most of the time. I think Snead was in 2-3 times that game. Combine that with Tebow overthrowing some of the fastest receivers in the nation (that would certainly have been touchdowns) and our shotty special teams and we've got a big fat L.

The beauty of this lose is we learned from it.

Florida made it look pretty easy this year.


That doesn't mean anything. There's been quite a few examples of teams running away with the SEC one year, then not do nearly as well the next year. There hasn't been back to back SEC champions in eons, let alone national champs.

95/95.

Back to back SEC titles.

And if we hadnt run into the freak of nature known as the Nebraska Cornhuskers of 1995 and Tommie Frazier, we may have won back to back national titles.

that's right and that was during the reign of Spurrier, before our defenses figured his offense out (credit to Saban)
