If only Florida could struggle with a bottom tier Big 12 team and beat the crap out of (though by significantly less) the worst team in the Sun Belt.
FAU is in C-USA for starters, not the Sun Belt. Secondly, they finished 6-6 last year; Eastern Michigan finished 2-10.
The point, though, is that the question posed was "Are Bama fans nervous about playing UF this year?" - to which my response pointed out that UF scored 65 on a team that gave up over 50 points six times last year, including to powerhouses:
Ball State
Army
Ohio
Northern Illinois
Toledo
Bowling Green
Over 40 points to:
Penn State
Buffalo
Central Michigan
This team wasn't just BAD - they would have been lucky to be middle of the pack in FCS play. I think Georgia Southern would probably beat them by 71.
Seriously, we have Gator fans coming off of a 4-8 season including a loss to an FCS school, turn around and beat a team that the same FCS school would slaughter, and puff up their chest to a team that has won at least 10 games 6 years running.
So, NO - we're not "nervous". You beat freaking Eastern Michigan, good for you. They were absolutely horrible - your BAND should beat them by at least two scores.

Maybe some of doublewide cousin marrying inbreds don't realize it...but Gator optimism wasn't just created by a blowout win over an overmatched team. Knowledgable fans know what is on our roster. Its easy to dismiss a 4-8 team...but crimson breath this isn't 2013 and we aren't playing our third string qb, walk on LBer and missing 3 offensiove tackles plus an All American DT who was first rounder we had 25 players miss something like 126 games because of injuries..got it pachyderm? Remember 2012? 11-1 and only the injuries kept us from a decent year in 2013.
What is your qb going to do when its third and eight? Our defense is the best in the country and we have an offense to go with it...an experienced qb and have developed a host of playmakers at receiver/running back. Bama FFFFFFFFUUUUUCCCCKKEEEDD.

FAU would also beat eastern michigan by 65, as would almost any other school you care to name
