| UF issues UF has no wIde receiving corps. They would probably trade for ours. The D is overrated and Tebow is a mediocre passer without big advantages at receiver.
If they win the title, there are no teams in the AA this season. Alabama should be favored in the SEC title game. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

| There's not much to stop them this year. It's Alabama or no one in the SEC, barring some kind of Gator meltdown. |

Still, CMK's D had alot to do with how the gators looked today. |

If they barely beat us with our hands tied by our miserable QB. There is no way they beat Bama which has a strong def, Good qb play and a strong running game. Florida trolls the gators reign is over you just don't know it yet. |

Posted via VolNation Mobile | UF will probably not play a better D the rest of the year so im not that concerned yet...the UF D typically bends but doesnt break so they'll be fine..Thompson being out did hurt the WR corps..but yeah that would be the biggest concern

| If Timmy is all they have on offense, the season will look a lot like 2007 for UF. |

| I see it has already been touched on but from what I have seen from Alabama and Florida so far I would have to say Alabama is the better team. Maybe Florida will regroup and look better against quality opponents but if Alabama and Florida played tomorrow it would be hard for me to bet against the bammers.
On a side note our defense is without a doubt better than last year. Janzen will be a beast in another year or two. Our young defensive ends are on track and our young defensive tackles look pretty solid at this point as well.

| I can't speak to the more talented team or other terms, but I can say with certainty that Bama looks to be a much more solid and consistent team. I think they are the better team now, and probably the same at the end of the season. I'm not sold on the fact that UF could dominate Ole Miss or even LSU. Perhaps even the Dawgs put up a fight if they continue the way they are on the offensive side of the ball.
Unless something drastic changes, or Tebow comes up with another earth shattering prep talk in the press, I'm not confident that UF shows up in the national title game.
That said, they still beat UK by 35 this weekend. |

They do more with less. They're solid, but there is probably 4 teams in the SEC that could beat them at any given time. Alabama is better defensively and probably a little better offensively. Florida has regressed from last year. I'd give bama the nod right now.

I think that Alabama does what THEY do better than Florida does. Two seperate types of football, but at the moment I think Bama is just better at what they do, and if matched against each other I seem them winning. |

| I just know that Bama and Florida are both great teams. Florida doesn't have Harvin and Murphy from last year, but you can never count Tebow out. |

If they win the title, there are no teams in the AA this season. Alabama should be favored in the SEC title game. Posted via VolNation Mobile | So this informed opinion is based upon their performance in one game and from that one game you can tell what they will do the rest of the way? You are either quite the fortune teller or know nothing whatsoever about football.
Florida faced the best defense it will see all season. Monte Kiffin also employed a defense designed to limit downfield passing and yet UF still moved the ball well enough without having to throw the ball downfield. UT was giving up 134 yards per game on defense before playing UF but gave up 2 1/2 times that amount to a UF offense that threw the ball sparingly because they had a safe lead. Florida's "overrated" D has still allowed only 1 TD through 3 games.
UF actually played a better game against Tennessee Saturday than they did last year and we all know how last season ended up for Florida.  |

The little bit of stats you tossed out from our having played two very poor offenses almost made me laugh. Just can't get there without some stats, can you. Maybe you'll throw some out for us from the CSU and Troy games. I'm waiting with bated breath.
The receiving corps is clearly a disaster and Tebow throwing is not an option. All your cute little conversation about better than last year is an outright lie - you know it, I know it and everyone else knows it.
If you believe our defense is better than the Alabama defense that you will play in the SECCG, you're simply too idiotic to continue. Maybe you'll notice that they have interior linemen and linebackers that stop the run at the point of attack and are much quicker than Tebow.
Finally, teams as good as the one you are trying to describe don't have troll representatives here trying to justify poor performance. They simply play and win convincingly. There aren't excuses about opposition gameplans and player illnesses. That's the Fulmeresque route that started his backslide. I like it. |
