Been going on for a while in that game

Not just in that game unfortunately. Florida never gets any love from officials SMH. Some interesting stats on this have been showing up this year on twitter and reddit that are eye opening.

Players in this era are too soft to be doing that each week. Good chance halfway through the season you'll be getting destroyed bc of injuries on the lines.

Yup I don't get what aspect of this people don't understand. We need to make sure officials in the ncaa tournament and football playoffs aren't in the BIGS pocket either. Last couple years have been super sketch IMO esp the NCAA tourney. Mfers let a player punch a guy and gave double techs. You think I'm joking but I've seen the big10 bias everywhere.

People saying this won't hurt the SEC are lying ti themselves. They forget undefeated SEC teams getting left out of the Natty and how the perception was prior to 2006.

The major problem is the SEC will not get as many chances to play OOC teams (fresh and healthy) as they have before. Early season matchups help prove conf strength BEFORE playoff selection. Who cares if we proved it in the playoff if 1-2 teams didn't get in because of public misconception. Just listen to these idiots saying that the SEC sucks bc the top teams have been losing. It's idiotic how ignorant most casual fans are.

Next, a big thing that will hurt is the unequal wear and tear of the teams come playoff time. Sure, in the playoffs we'll get a chance to compete, but SEC teams after 9 conf games will likely be extremely beat up. Not even UGA or Bama have great depth nowadays so even they WILL feel it. It's already happened in the last couple years.

Also, I think the idea that SOS will be rewarded as they say is complete BS. Big10 conned the SEC into 9 conf games bc they knew our bottom half is much stronger than theirs. "Oh but 3 loss teams will get in!" Sure maybe 1 or 2 and then we'll be fighting internally each time a 3 loss ga or Bama gets in over a 3 loss Mizzou or Kentucky. Just look at the rankings. 1 loss Wake is ahead of the majority of solid SEC teams. That isn't changing for the playoffs. Every other conference gained with this decision save ours IMO.

but nobody is safe in the SEC from one week to the next this year. Very soon you will be staring at 3 losses just like us and several others.

Yup, no need for any boasting. Just happy we won.

How random is this...
-both upset top 10 teams on the road as big underdogs
-both go down by exactly 14 points early and look like they'll get blown out
-both go on a 24-zip runs to go up 10 in the second half
-both end up winning with the exact same final score 27-24

I felt like I was watching our game all over again despite it being a bit different in the very end. Cheers Auburn fans!

Remember when we thought Anthony Richardson and DJ Lagway were going to be stars?! I feel for Carolina.

Florida's four opponent's combined record is 13-4. Kinda wild.

Fau 3-1
Campbell 4-1
Auburn 3-1
Ole Miss 3-1

What we need to better decide strength of schedule is more conference opponents!

He can break them, but he's more of a heavy jumpcut guy. Kid has some leg strength.

Tennessee at home the last 3 years
2023: 6-1 loss to UGA
2024: 7-0
2025: 4-3 UGA in ot, OU, Vandy

So basically Tennessee is 17-2 at home vs teams not named UGA. That's not a bad honestly.
