That's bad news for us.

Franks is hot garbage and their offense looked a lot better with Zaire.

FF blows, but Zaire has also been blah in his very limited role. his plays last week were against 2nd and 3rd sting.

Against GA's #3s I agree

Right, but Franks is awful.

Moving a 3rd string long snapper to QB would have been bad news for us.

It's not going to make a difference (IMO); we still win

Mizzou's D has not proven it can contain. They're going outside the tackles and I don't blame them.

Smart move by Shannon, but why announce it?

Watching this D try and contain should make for some entertaining moments, and not in a good way.

I'd expect a heavy dose of read option and it to give us all kinds of problems.

Hopefully Drew can throw for 400 yards again, because we're going to need it.

True.

The rich man’s Marvin Zanders if I recall.

Well, he's probably not as big a pussy as Zanders

I figured they’d start Zaire. He will cause us some problems. Our ends have to quit pinching so hard, and getting run around. 2 steps upfield, with a LB filling the gap. D tackles have to play strong and occupy blockers. Clog the middle. I do expect Florida’s offense to play better this week. Zaire is better than Franks, and our defense.........well its suspect at best! We need to score 40 and hope UF stumbles on some of their drives.

Zaire??? There's a reason he wasn't playing already. He isn't going to come in and save FL. This is a desperate but reasonable move at this point.

Likely to be a high scoring game.
