So, who's got some score predictions for the FL-TN game this weekend?

Clampdown · 09-14-2009, 11:18 AM

It was nice to see UT loose.

As far as the UT vs UF game, this could get ugly VERY quick.

I agree it could get ugly very quick, and I've been expecting it too for months now. But the more I try to look at it objectively, which is hard, the less I think Florida can truly blow them out like most people are thinking. I have no doubts that Florida's D can shut down TN's offense but I'm not sure Florida's Offense can hang as many points on TN's D as people say. TN has a very good defense and while I don't think they can shut Florida down by no means I could see them holding them 30 something while maybe getting a score off a turnover too. Florida wins but I could see it being a 35-17 type game rather than a true Florida style thumping. Hope I'm wrong though

Once FL runs out of division 2A schools to thump, they are going to have a hard time
hanging big numbers on anybody. 'Ceptin TN.

Boy, you ain't lyin'. I had been chuckling for a week when all the TN pundits were saying "It looks like
Jonathan Crompton has finally matured and become what TN recruiters thought he should be."
This after he managed not to lose against our schedule's version of Charleston Southern.
I say "OUR"...I couldn't care less about UT football, I am a LSU fan. Alot of those Orange
clad people were actually thinking UT was going to beat UCLA. I just had to chuckle quietly to myself.
On the other hand, I am liking that Jordan Jefferson from LSU. Big tall kid.
He played for our arch rivals across the river from my hometown. It's funny how rivalries go.
You had to wait on the ferry for half an hour and MAYBE you'd be one of the 30 cars to get
across the Mississippi on a load, and MAYBE you'd get to the game on time. After that hassle,
you wanted to KILL the opposition, lol. I am still liking LSU's chances against the Gators.

52-13 UF

several reasons why the Gators are gonna stomp em.

1.) The last time UF was fired up was the Fl-GA game last year because the shenanegans they pulled in the end zone the year before. UT this year is not anywhere near the team georgia was last year offensively or defensively and UF destroyed georgia

. yes no percy harvin this year but with demps and rainey there's still enough speed to fill an olympic relay team.

2.) Again going with the example of georgia. If the gators could kill a team coached by the good and talented coach like mark richt, we will destroy a team without as much talent and coached by a rookie who is at the very least unproven

3.) the words of lane kiffen (or as UF students say "lame kitten") have been displayed in the UF locker room and workout room since he was hired

4.) ITS IN THE SWAMP!!!!! of course the players are amped up for the game but so are all 90,000 + screaming gator fans who will make the UT offense's ears bleed

watch out UT.....its coming in dry and at an angle

You make very valid points, I'm starting to buy back into the 50 point blowout line of thinking...

Nicely put. I'm going, eh, 42-20 Gators. I think we're going to come out wanting to prove ourselves against the first SEC opponent of the season, and the D really will shut 'em down and force field goals and turnovers. Also, Tebow + James + Demps + Rainey + Moody etc... who wants to talk about a high-power offense?

There's an ass-whooping to be handed out in the Swamp this week.

I hope the Gators save some of those points for the tougher games coming on down the line.

Go Gators!

I hope as in "Tougher", you mean BAMA, Admiral!

Looking forward to another "Rematch" in the SEC Championship, Brother!

Certainly Alabama would be tougher than the Gators' first 2 opponents and some of their upcoming ones Greg...but no guarantees that they will meet this season, so right now I am watching out for the likes of LSU and Georgia.

Little ol Bama tougher than Charleston Southern or Troy. Nah. But thanks for the kind words.

I need to pick this apart a bit and also support it. 52-13 is not unreasonable at all, in fact it's about the best I have
seen so far. I am thinking over 60, but for arguments sake, you are probably right.
Percy Harvin being gone is TOUGH to come back from, but Demps is a super-stud. I COULD say speed is nothing,
look at Trindon Holliday, who is probably faster than anyone FLA can field, BUT is not really a great football player.
Demps is special. He is fast and smart and quick and ruthless and tough. Watching him block those punts last year
was a revelation. Rainey I do not know cause I do not follow FLA football. But I can say this. This game is going
to be more fun to watch than a good game. And lately, that's more of what I want, anyway. I am sick of watching
ineptitude on the field. This has been a really No-fun start to the season. Except for ND-Mich last week.
THAT was football.
