They're giving James touches on O this yr other than his kick return duties.. also Rainey and CI are freaks...the O is loaded and if Tebow can get any help at all from the RB spot(which I'm still skeptical Moody is the answer) then they will be hard to stop.

I don't think they are going to completely abandon the Tebow run, that would just be dumb, but they won't use it near as much either.

Did they change the title of this thread to "Florida Special Teams"? No, they didn't.

I don't think Tebow's rushing numbers will be as good as last year because going through a 12 game season and taking a beating on him almost cost him to miss games with a shoulder and wrist I think. However, I think his passing numbers will be better. I could see Florida using Cam Newton like they used Tebow in 06

DT QB's are harder to stop if they are good at running and throwing, if you take away 1 of those they won't be as effective. Don't get me wrong, he will still score a ton, it will just be harder for him to do it.

First of all, I don't have blinders on cause I can see the numbers he put up. Second of all, if we have a running back who can rush for at least 900 to 1000 yards, our offense will be that much harder to contain, not easier. Last year it was trying to stop Tebow running the ball, if there are 2 people who can run the football, then you will have to prepare for 2, not 1. IMO, preparing for 2 is tougher than preparing for 1 runner? Tebows YPC will go up this year, with fewer carries. The passing numbers will increase. Again, this is under the assumption he will have a 900 to 1000 yard rusher behind Tebow.

I agree with VV101. The offense will be harder (not easier) to stop if Timbow doesn't run as much because we'll have more guesswork on defense. Will it be Timbow, Rainey, Moody, Harvin, or Moore who gets the carry? The options can make one's head spin.

Hey Gator boyz, who will Florida's top 5 receivers be this year? Here's my guess:

1) Percy Harvin (provided he gets past the injury)
2) Riley Cooper
3) Louis Murphy
4) Cornelius Ingram
5) Deonte Thompson

Thoughts?

I think Carl Moore will be #2.

1. Harvin
2. Murphey
3. Ingram
4. Carl Moore
5. Deonte Thompson

Cooper is good and I wish I could put him on the list, but he is injury prone and is known to run the wrong routes (berry pick 6).

I think he just gave up on the play if memory serves correctly.

Urban is the one who said he ran the wrong route. Probably a combination of both.
