Gator chances for undefeated SEC season ...

Local sportswriter about sums it up right. Florida's chances for an undefeated regular season -- a feat accomplished only once in the last 50 years -- hinges on TWO upcoming trips to the State of Tennessee.

Yup.

And I thought Kentucky did it a few years ago as well...?

Hard to believe.

I keep hearing once in 50 years. Could be wrong, haven't looked it up.

Point is, either Vandy or UT could be a spoiler for us.

I think you are both right.

Kentucky did it a few years ago and were the only team in 50 years.

Talk about incentive to set us back on our heels ...

It's possible. The Lady Vols have done it 8 times...

Serioiusly, I want Tennessee to take this away from Florida really bad. I think that they can do it, but Florida can play at an incredible level.

I guess we'll see what happens.

Gators just seem like a cat, playing with mice.

They've got a great shot, obviously. They're also in the position that if they do lose they can (and will) just say it was an off night and that they still should've won.

The crazy thing about it is if Florida loses a conference game, it could be to someone like us, the most unlikely of all (especially at home).

When Carolina went 15-1 in 1997 in the conference, the sole loss was to Georgia. I don't think they were all that great.

............ahhh, forget it. We've won our last game in conference. It'll be 2-14 for Carolina. Thank God it's already baseball season. We are terrible. Since Florida beat us by 40+ in Columbia, they'll probably beat us by 50+ in Gainesville.

I just dont think UF will run the table..they cant continue to get into deep holes like they did against Bama and pull it out..especially on the road.

Yep, everytime I see Noah, I think that is one big cat. Except I don't use the word cat.

Kentucky did it in 2003 (16-0) and in 1996 (16-0.) Before that, the most recent undefeated team in conference play was Alabama in 1956 (14-0,) although quite a few teams went undefeated in conference play from 1933-1954.

The 96 UK team lost in the SECCG to MSU. I thought we were talking wire to wire including the tourney.
