I'm expecting Toney and maybe Grimes to opt out. We will be down a lot of weapons. It'll be tough.




If Toney opts out, Florida will be done. I realize they have a lot of weapons, but I doubt they will survive Pitts and Toney being missing.

If this happens you will look more like the LSU game than you did in the Bama game.

Your skill players are your competitive advantage.

Florida's biggest problem is finding enough offense since Pitt's opted out. They played LSU without Pitts and it ended up a disaster. I mean the offense looked okay, but I can't help but believe that they might have put one more score on the board had they had Pitts.


If Toney or Grimes both opt out as well (not sure if they've made any decisions yet), then I think it could be a huge issue. We'd need to get the ball spread out a lot more and use the backs in the passing game as well.

Our biggest issue on offense has been running the ball.

OU has the best defense FL has faced all year. I think they win pretty easily.

Would have taken UF, but with their main weapon in Pitts quitting and OU being hot right now...I'll go Oklahoma.

Trask threw for 500 yards on LSU without Pitts. We had no issues moving up and down the field, except at the beginning of Q4.

Shorter is an adequate replacement for Grimes, Copeland has been open all year just inconsistent in actually catching the ball, both TEs are good just not elite.

I question our RZ play calls more than the talent of the players running them. Dan calls a good game and we win easily.

I would never assume OU has a defense in a bowl. Will be a shoot out. I'll take us we are far more tested. Big12 was awful this year.
