I think this game is wide open. Sumlin is far better coach than Muschamp. Kyle Field will be full of tu fans who are still crying about WM not being HC but secretly rooting for him to beat those sheep humping aggies.
I plan of being there rooting for my aggies.
Florida will win but not by much.

Way too early for this stuff to figure out specific favorites/underdogs.
Who knows WTF will go on with the offense, plus A&M is bringing in a new staff as well. Just so many things to figure out.
That said, I think it'll be an interesting matchup given that it's at Kyle Field and it is opening up SEC play.

A&M is going to crush UF in that game.
UF is always a very slow starting team. They don't play a quality game until Tennessee and as we all know, Tennessee isn't what it used to be.
I'm guessing you've only watched us suck the past 2 years.

Have you watched us play the past two years? If we win a conference game by 14 points, that would be a miracle in itself

I honestly have no idea what will happen in that game, but I think it will be close. Should be a fantastic atmosphere and hope plenty of UF people make the trip.

The stadium will be sold out from season tickets. The only seats available will be through UF or a 3rd party vendor.
There won't be any Texas fans there

i think UF should win.
our defense will be a top 5 d next year. a & m won't be able to move the ball very much. just depends on how bad our offense sucks, i'm optimistic though.
Are you familiar with Kevin Sumlin at all? I'm not worried about A&M's offense. We'll move the ball.

Houston guy, correct? Is it going to be an easy transition for aTm? Do ya'll have the personal to run his stuff? Will it be like the issue UF had last year?

We graduated our large possession receiver, our QB, and one of our two best RBs. The other RB will be coming off of a knee injury.
We are in excellent shape on the OL and have very good receivers although we might lack a true deep threat.
But Sumlin has had nothing but success on the offensive side of the ball in his career. At A&M and OU as an OC and at Houston as the HC.
We still don't know what style of offense he will run. It could be a what he ran in Houston which is similar to Holgerson at WVU or it could be similar to what OU ran with Adrian Peterson. All he's said on this issue is that he'll shape the offense to the players and not the other way around

A&M will be up by 10 in the first half and lose by 14

Not a good start.

That OL hasn't played a full season of SEC play.

Sounds like UA.

In the Big 12 and C-USA.

Case Keenum isn't walking in through that door...

A hope, I am sure. UF this year was an experiment in trying to put a square peg into a round hole..

Honestly, game time is going to have a lot to do with this outcome. Kyle Field is just a different beast at night time (As im sure all places are)
A&M will need all the crowd noise it can get to win this game.

aTm is going to have a lot of fun playing their regular season games in places like Death Valley, Jordan Hare, the Swamp, and Bryant Denny.

Yep.

UF is used to playing in loud stadiums. What is going to count is if UF gels on the D and finds an identity on O.

Still not worried. They are talented and deep

And your point? It's still 11 on 11. The man is one of the best offensive minds in the college game

Sumlin made Keenum, not the other way around. Are you aware we have a Parade All-American at QB on the team? You can choose to think we will struggle. I will believe our offense will be fine. We both find out in Week 2 what our offense looks like

I'll take florida in this one.....aTm doesn't have a defense. Florida's defense will be able to handle the aTm offense.

The SEC, without aTm in it, has reeled off all those BCSNC due to DL play. We'll see how aTm fairs against it.

So, playing against B12 and C-USA is like playing SEC teams?

C. Newton was able to be C. Newton not just because he was a freak. He had 38 year old OLmen that had 16 yrs of SEC experience.

There will be a transiton period. New league and new coach.

I think midyear, after a few SEC games, will be more telling.
