No hate here gator. I just think Mizzou is coming into the conference in pretty damn good shape already. I think Pinkell is a good coach, and I have a feeling they are going to do very well in their first season.

I have no idea about Pinkel. I'll take your word for it. I still believe that their team (aTM too) is going to be challenged with depth issues after a long and brutal SEC season.

We all suffer injuries. I'm just not sure Mizzy has the depth to overcome them.

You sure you don't hate UF, just a little?

Not at all, I am glad we play yearly. I do think you guys could have made a better hire than Boom, but maybe he will prove me wrong this season.

If Florida goes 1-5 in the East this season, I will self ban for a month.

Will you self ban if the Gators win 2 games or more in the East this year?

Put your money where your mouth is.

I'm not even remotely a fan of the Gators. Wouldn't bother me in the least to see them go 1-5 in the East. Just think your prediction is utterly insane.

So... ban bet or what, bee-yatch?

Who?

No one I wanted was coming. Stoops was coming the year before but Ubran fricked that up by unretiring.

Florida will beat Missouri...by a lot. Hopefully after boom coated them some other games because if not he will be the big ESPN story for a little while since boise will be irrelevant this year.

Autocorrect. Costs was the appropriate verb

You saying you hope Boom costs us some games this year?

Which games did he cost us last year just out of curiosity?

The D did pretty well for much of the season save for Bama, LSU and half of the Furman game.

Even if the offense is as bad as last year (which it won't be - mostly just because Brantley is gone) - Florida will still win 6 or 7 games for sure.

If the offense has a pulse, Florida will be one of the better teams in the country this year, because the defense will be legit, and the special teams should be solid.

And even with all of the problems Florida had last year, South Carolina and Georgia barely squeaked out wins and those were 10 and 11 win teams.

I think people's perceptions of Florida's apparent weakness is misguided.

We just need to install the new offense successfully, cut down on penalties, show some life at the RB, WR and QB position and get ready for next year.

Some turnovers would help too

I think our Defense will be fine when it comes to forcing more TOs this season.

Don't pay Gaytor any mind. He flames on Mizzou simply because he knows zero about the team...therefore, in his mind, Mizzou must suck since he knows nothing about the team.

Leave him alone. Let him think what he thinks. Then when he's drowning himself in liquor and heartache after watching Florida get stomped by Mizzou, we can harrass him on the rant to the point where he viciously reacts in a drunken stupor and he's promptly banned for a while.

It's happened before.

I hate UF as much as anyone, but they're the type of team that will compete with teams like Mizzou even when they suck just because the talent level and speed is so much better. Mizzou might win but it won't be by a lot.

Flame Mizzou? Heck, I was the one suggesting you were better than adding Notre Dame.
