UF's OOC schedule is:

UMass
NTexas
Presbyterian Blue Hose
FSU

Their SECW opponents are:

LSU
Arkansas

I think they will lose to FSU, LSU and they have a chance to lose to Arky.

So yes, cake walk compared to other SEC teams. Normal for an ACC schedule.

To be fair, our OOC schedule of App. St., Va Tech, Ohio, and Tenn. Tech isn't much at all. It's the conference schedule and the sequence of those games that makes their schedule considerably weaker than UT's.

Looks pretty similar to ours to me. We've got Bama at home, they've got LSU at home. We go to A&M, they go to Arkansas. They have the harder OOC game against FSU compared to our VT and we both have 3 OOC cupcakes although our 3 may look a little tougher but not much. The order of their games looks a little more favorable also, but still a pretty similar schedule to me.

This is my thinking, but the sequencing definitely helps them out.

See my above post on OOC schedule. I also emphasized the sequence of the games. UT plays UF, @UGA, @A&M, and Bama in a row without a bye. That trumps just about any other schedule in the SEC. When you look at UF's sequence of games as well as consider the placement of their bye week, it does not compare in level of difficulty.

Ohio, VTECH, and App State all went to bowl games last year.

Our OOC teams went 30-20 last year.
UF OOC teams went 16-32 last year.

That's a good point, but I was simply trying to state that outside of one OOC game, all are expected wins. Outside of Va Tech for UT and FSU for UF, no one really cares about the others.

Would be nice if they lost to us, Arky and LSU and then beat Ga to give them another loss. That happens we should have the east wrapped up even if we somehow drop both aTm and Bama. Have to beat Ga and Florida of course but 10-2 wins the east if all that happens

I thought the same thing, then I went and looked at their last few seasons.

They've dropped more than a few games at home recently (and La-Monroe took them to the wire, IIRC). If they come into that game with 2 or more losses (which is possible if Auburn regains a pulse and/or Arkansas has anything shaking), then it might not be all that wild given the way Sumlin is on shaky ground.

You could be right. But I'm going to assume that game is gonna be wild and stressful until I'm proven wrong. Hopefully we kick them in the teeth early and often though.

Finebaum with some relentless questions to Saban about not suspending his players. That was uncomfortable. But also awesome to see Saban sweat.

Bielema bragging about his players not getting arrested or in trouble.

Given his penchant for eating crow immediately after saying something, I can only assume an entire car load of his players will soon get arrested.

I don't blame you at all, that place has quite the reputation.

Mainly just pointing out looking at the games they've lost there recently toned it down a bit.

He eats crow, his feet, and anything else that gets close enough for the tractor beam in his throat to grab. He's not just fluffy.... He's DAMMMMMN!
