Meyer has more weapons to work with then Petrino. Florida's defense will be strong. Meyer's play calling will be much better then Petrino's. Either way it will be another great SEC game on Saturday.

Wouldn't be a huge upset. Game could really go either way.

they sure might! you know, it's totally strange that you're coming off your MO to make Bama look like they may actually lose. usually you just pump sunshine up bama's butt.

refreshing, coming from u!

the offensive playcalling is really what has been lacking in Gainesville. This is my biggest worry. Not stopping the run or pass, not running the ball;what Addazio is going to call

Agreed. They are 28-2 or something like that over the last couple of years.

How does Florida have more weapons?

The big equalizer that UF has which Arky didn't is size and talent on the offensive and defensive lines.

Florida is going to play a lot of 5-2, and I think they'll be able to slow down the run better than Arky did.

Don't you expect Meyer to be all over this??? I was at the Tennessee/Florida game. When Meyer called the fake punt it was classic Meyer. He has a great feel for the game and when to grab the momentum back from the other team with a great play.

For anyone to beat Bama right now, it would necessarily be an upset...they are the #1 team in the nation and have not lost a regular season game in three years.

I personally think for anyone to beat them this year is a HUGE upset. They have the best coaching staff and probably the best overall talent.

In short, they will not get beat this year, period.

Yes, but Bama's ground game runs the clock. I still can't believe Bama passed the ball so much. It was almost their undoing.

Knocking off the #1 team is not an upset??? Not calling it a big upset. QB play is key for both teams.

Not if you're playing Florida. This game is wide open, like I thought the Arky game was.

agree 1000percent. We are not the same offense as Fla, LSU, SC, Ark. We run to set up the pass. Yall have the great receivers, ours are good but JJ is not built to put up tons of receiving yds like the receivers at the other schools.

who plays on the DL for the gators? Stopping the Bama run game is going to be a huge challenge. do the gators have the players up front to do that?

thanks, I'll sit back and read now

I hate to say it again but I will, I think UF wins this game 27-23. The Burton kid will be the difference maker for UF.

Probably the most talented Dline we've seen in the last 2 years. Still making some mistakes but they're good. I don't think I've seen a faster secondary.

well it kind of has to be an upset the way Alabama fans and all the media have portrayed Florida as this medicore team.

I mean, piss, we won 2 games in a row and dropped in the dern polls...

Either team can lose this game and still be okay.
