Florida players are unusually loud this year at SECMD

You had 15 players drafted in the last 2 years. We've had ZERO. And yet you only won by 2 points total in the last 2 years. The idea you were starved for talent the last few years is hilarious.

And even more comical is that you are now flushed with talent after McElwain just brought in the 2 lowest rated recruiting classes in the last 20 years at Florida.

We've out-recruited you the last 3 years. First time Tennessee could say that on paper we're the more talented team in forever. We return the most experienced team in the SEC. We have you at home. And your players have decided to give a more talented team an off-season's worth of bulletin board material.

Unless this voodoo magic curse thing is real, Florida will get stomped down this year in Neyland.

EVERY FACTOR IS IN TENNESSEE'S FAVOR.

Two morons enter,one moron leaves! Let the ultimate battle for idiocracy begin!

I'm not sure there is a big gap as far as talent goes but it does seem to be on UT's side especially on offense. Should be a fun game.

Hatred for another team is what determines how big the rivalry is IMO. They hate us more than UGA.

As for me, I hate bammer more than Satan. They are who I want to beat the most.
Gators history rival is Uga and Fsu is next. UT will compete this year, tho!
 
The vols are not getting enough respect from florida---i'm tired of this. UT clearly has a lot more talent at all the key positions and will win this game big!

Tennessee will get respect from Florida when we beat them. Otherwise, how much respect should they have for a team they punk every year? For example, no UT fan (nor should they) has any respect whatsoever for Vandie.....and they've beaten us 3 times in the last 11 years.
 
Be careful - The Gators are playing "us against the world".

This team is going to be better than everyone thinks.

I wouldn't go that far. We beat Vandy like a red headed stepchild quite regularly. You don't see UT players going into the Media Days running their mouth about it. Kentucky has a completely dismal performance against UT. But again, Tennessee has class about it and doesn't say a word.

No, I can blame them all day long. It's called arrogance and it'll be nice to watch the Vols wipe the smugness off their faces.

I think it goes both ways. I see it being understood two ways . One, as a mental game just trying to rattle UT. And two, something said because they are young guys enjoying the moment. I don't think it should be taken as seriously as some are taking it. The team is already motivated to beat Florida and this will only add fuel to the fire.

Best of luck in beating them though, I hope we can conquer our own demons and manage to do what we should have done the last two seasons.
 
Can't blame them for trying to get their shots in while they can. It may be a little more difficult to talk in the next coming years. Plus, all of this talk makes me feel like this game is getting back to its glory days.
 
Can the Vols prevent Gators from steeling their cheese? Probably, but we will gonna see. It shud be a good one.
 
Can you give an example? I listened to his presser, I didn't get that feeling at all.

Hard to find candor on a fan site, but Butch sounded like a man who was very pleased with himself. Maybe by the end of the season, he will be entitled to arrogance, but after coaching two late collapses, wouldn't a little humility be in order?

We have had several years to get our shots in.
