Florida final AP Rankings since 2013:

2013: NR
2014: NR
2015: #25
2016: #14
2017: NR

Florida has finished unranked in 3 of the past 5 years... no finishes in the Top 13 in 5 years.

LSU Final AP Rankings since 2012:

2012: #14
2013: #14
2014: NR
2015: #16
2016: #13
2017: #18

No finishes in the Top 12 in six consecutive seasons... next season doesn't look like its going to produce a Top 12 team either.

Tennessee Final AP Rankings since 2002:

2002: NR
2003: #15
2004: #13
2005: NR
2006: #25
2007: #12
2008: NR
2009: NR
2010: NR
2011: NR
2012: NR
2013: NR
2014: NR
2015: #22
2016: #22
2017: NR

No finishes in the Top 11 in sixteen years.... finished unranked in 8 of the past 10 seasons. Ouch

So Florida, LSU, and Tennessee have gone 5, 6, and 12 years respectively without a Top 10 finish.


How long will this continue? Which of these will be the next to finally finish in the Top 10 and how many years from now will it be?

Putting Florida and LSU in the same category as Tennessee isn't doing those programs justice.

UF is a ways away. Like 2 full top5 recruiting cycles, and a stud QB away. I’m not sure if Mullen can recruit well enough to get us where we need to be quite honestly. He should get us more competitive then the last guy though.

well, it seems to me that losing fisher at fsu will be a big plus for y'alls recruiting. and I also think mullen recruiting extremely well for msu; why wouldn't he be a good recruiter at UF?

LSU (2), Florida (1), and Tennessee (0) have a combined 3 Top 10 finishes during the same period.... none with 3.

If you look at Top 5 finishes this decade (since 2010):

Alabama (6), Georgia (2), and Auburn (2) have a combined 10 Top 5 finishes... each having 2 or more.

LSU (1), Florida (0), and Tennessee (0) have a combined 1 Top 5 finish.... none having 2 or more.

One of those teams has the most players in the NFL. Your list must be wrong.

I don't believe that either of these three teams are in a great position moving forward, but I guess Florida would be most likely to have a Top 10 finish next.

I thik Emory Jones is that QB. he will be good. He might need a couple of years to season, but he will be good. The trick is...as hungry as Florida fans are, will they be patient?

UT is on a streak beyond the 12 you give them.

He hasn’t proved it yet. No sense in being biased and crowning the guy until he shows he can get it done. Mississippi State doesn’t necessarily translate to Florida. Fisher leaving helps but every school recruits Florida.

I think your opinion of Emory is solid, he’s a project with high upside, but that’s all he is right now.
