Absolutely disgusted.

I'm done with UF football until next season starts.

Hey hey hey, let's not get too down in the dumps yet.

All we need is a serviceable quarterback. Not even fantastic, not even really good.

Just decent. Just not Treon. We're going to have a different team, a more experienced line (thankfully) and I can guarantee you it won't be 6 - 6 or 7 - 5 next year.

I wouldn't be shocked if we get a decent QB if we get 10 again.

I'm more worried about the defense. They look terrible right now and they have looked that way from the first snap.

I still kinda give that up to losing Amac, a lot of players going early to the NFL and just a bunch of guys who have no faith in the offense.

They gave up a few weeks ago, and losing Grier was absolutely critical. The difference with him is that we had a lot of really clutch plays, and Treon just isn't clutch at all unless it's a broken play.

Defense will be fine, we have a bunch of dudes coming back and our recruiting is only going to get better as time goes on.

Mac can only do so much with the absolute horror show left behind by Muschamp.

Michigan absolutely owns us.

OWNS us.

Not looking forward to seeing the rematch in Dallas in 2017.

Our defense finally let the offense get to them. They looked like they didn't want to be there today. VH1 looked like a freshman walk on. He should rethink going pro. My biggest concern for next season is our terrible O line. Jeez, Tom Brady would have looked like shite behind them today.

Yep, that's it. Defense finally just gave up. It sucks playing lights out all game to have your offense literally generate zero points (like with FSU).

They just gave up later, and that's it.

But Treon is the problem period, O-line was bad for Grier -- Treon just has no football IQ.

Oh I'll readily admit Harris is hammered dog shite as a QB but our line couldn't block a soul today.

Well I think the bigger problem with Treon -- not making excuses for the line -- is that often he scrambles directly into pressure.

There are so many plays where he's rolling, or ducking and dodging -- directly into the pressure. Not away, not into the pocket. It's just his football IQ. I think a different QB could take the pressure off of his line, but the problem is again:

Football IQ.

Treon just doesn't seem to have it in him to be a quarterback. He doesn't recognize blitzes, he doesn't change the play in his head and he doesn't have the cognizance to understand just the fundamentals of being a QB.

Grier played behind the same line, but he knew when to release it quickly, he had pretty good pocket awareness and he was able to make it work (sometimes).

Treon is just completely lost.

We have this pretty typical "sky is falling" from the Muschamp years, but with a decent QB we easily run the show. I'm just excited the year is over, and we can all finally move on.

This is a 6-6 team at heart. They had no business playing Bama in the SEC championship or Michigan in the Citrus Bowl yet here we are.

I don't know if it was a locker room mentality that Mac alluded to saying players were satisfied after winning the East or Michigan was just that much better than us. Either way that was embarrassing. Our defense played like hot garbage. Some guys didn't help out their draft stock that's for sure. Maye and VH3 were on different pages all game.

The things that really concerned me was the lack of effort by some of our guys, some of the penalties we had and the offensive gameplan. It was the same old thing that hasn't worked.

We have a lot of young guys that got valuable time this year so that is a positive. But honestly the trend we had the last 6 or 7 games has me a little concerned and made me a little less sold on Mac (Still better than Muschamp). 10 wins is still better than I thought but be honest we are just as close to 7 wins as we are 10.

Next year will really show what we have. Muschamp went 11-2 in year 2. Lets see what McElwain can do.

The staff and team looked completely unprepared. No adjustments and keeping Treon in down by 17 was mind boggling. Why not give Guy a shot?

Take a look at the schedule.

UT,FSU, UGA are toss ups. Everything else should be a win.


The secondary was the biggest disappointment. so many wide open wr's and TE's

A few things...

This group of guys has never seen success. They ate it up and probably packed it in. This team is made up of guys with a history of losing at UF, unfortunately. It is a mentality, when you lose as much as some did under WM.

UF started SO, TRFR, Dildo, TRFR, TRFR, and a kid at QB that can't say his ABC's. That is a really really good Michigan defense against what we trotted out on offense. We should witness complete roster turnover at QB and WR next year, which will be a great benefit. Not to mention good OL and depth coming back.

Finally, UF overachieved this year. Won a few games they shouldn't have and lost a few they were outmatched in. Overall, a great year and a good future.

You think LSU and Arkansas are sure wins?

LSU has owned us lately.

We own Arkansas.


I did admittedly forget the Tigers, but they are in Gville next year. Eh, put 'em in as a toss up too.

If we lose all 4 (UT,UGA, FSU, LSU) that's still a pretty good year with a FR at QB and significant turnover at WR, DB, DL, and LB.

2017 is a make/break year for Mac and this team.

We will be real bad next year if Harris is the starter. The players seem like they are giving up on him and the fans already have.
