Fact is, Bama has had a hard time vs the better defenses. They haven't faced a defense as good as Florida's though.

Don't think Florida will shut them out but i don't think they will score 20+ either.

I do like Florida's chances because i think Urban is the better coach. Just like he was last year. Plus he has Tebow, that is better than McElroy.


Margin of victory VS. SEC opponents:

UF 15.6
UA 16.9

So, unless all the ways that UF is better than UA are just about to kick in now, and haven't been a factor yet, then I'd say your prognososis is a little off.

Some of my Gator buds down here have admitted that they're pretty worried about us. They're concerned about their offense against Bama's D...and our offense against their D for that matter. Last year, they were obnoxiously cocky before the game.

I like the way things are shaking out. We beat Florida, we'll beat Texas by 3 TDs.

Unless your gator buds are Joe Haden and Brandon Spikes than who really cares?

I just don't think Bama will move the ball on our defense. We'll load the box, which we can do with Haden and Jenkins at corner, and make McElroy beat us, which won't happen. I'm sure Bama fans will say they don't see us moving the ball on them but I'd rather have Tebow who's played in 2 SEC Championships and 2 NCs over a guy who hasn't played in a game of this magnitude. Tebow seems to always come up big in the biggest games.

Typical Bamatard. Probably the same guy touting McElroy for Heisman earlier this year.

Hm. That's what I figured. If Florida's veteran D stops bama's run, which will probably happen..then what? What if julio gets hurt? The only names i really hear of on Alabama's O are JJ and Ingram. Bama's passing game is gonna have to step up.

While Florida's O features: Tebow, Cooper, Demps, James... and percy didn't even play in the SECCG.

Bama's D is going to have to almost be god-like to win. Speed kills, and Florida still has lots of it.

I think qb/defensive play will be the difference maker.

UA is gonna have to blitz a ton..and Tebow Time will being a problem for UA but we'll see. Should be another good game similar to last year.

I honestly don't think some of you watch football except for the sportscenter highlights.

Bama is beating SEC opponents by a wider margin than UF. So how is it that UF is so much better?

Same can be said for a few of FL games though

Like UK, LSU, and UT

All 3 played FL and Bama and FL looked better than Bama against all 3

Bama looked a little better against USCe, they looked alot better against state, and killed Ark

in other words you're pretty fricking even.

That's my point. Some of these people are acting like UF has some great offense or defense that Bama can't match up with. I just pointed out that Bama has won by a slightly wider margin in the SEC than Florida has. So, it's ridiculous to say that UF "just has too many weapons". If they did, why haven't they done better than UA has?
