re: Are the Vols finally good enough to beat the Gators?

I think if Florida thinks this is going to be remotely similar to last years team they are in for a surprise. The Oline is much improved. Bray is Bray, but now with multiple targets, not just Hunter and Patterson either. The offensive improvement gets the press, however the biggest difference is on defense. We have had talant there for some time, but but those horrible Wilcox schemes were not working. They were very much wait and react, that just does not work in the SEC. Sunseri has turned things around big time by letting them be aggressive, and really improving pass rush. We also have four potential ball hawks if we're not leading SEC for interceptions I will be surprised. If Florida has to pass there will be a lot of turn overs. The defensive line does look improved too but untested against an sec team, I think they can stop Floridas run. But no way to guage until the game we just havent played a team with running game in first two. Floridas offense looks like......I dunno what we normally associate with the commodores. I don't care who your a fan of this is really possibly worst offensive group Florida has fielded since per Spurrier.

My biggest question is Florida's defense and pass rush. I got nothin but respect for Florida's D, they remains strong. But they better be ready to run all day all over the field......this is going to be a gunslinger at work and with many targets. To me the game hinges on Tennessee's offensive line vs the Florida pass rush.
