#5 Florida at Ole Miss Game Thread (ESPN, 12PM EDT)

Did you swap the JG 2019 poster on your bedroom ceiling out for a 2020 version or nah?

Never had one. It just seems strange that OM is getting rolled but having good QB play. So can you explain why? Why can’t the OM QBs stop UF?

 

[USMC-TNVOL]

Lol. There are always outliers. How many championships did Leach win at Wazzu? His offenses were record breaking. Look at Orgeron. Defensive minded HC. Saban? Same. Dabo? Has one of the best DCs to ever coach. Offense is definitely important but without a good defense, it means little.

They’re not outliers. Look at all the championship games within the past 20 years and the number of them that are high scoring vs low scoring is much higher.

You know you've got a problem when you show up in a Florida/Ole Miss game thread to preemptively defend JG's performance.

 

[UTK]

Toney has played well too. So I shouldn't exclude him

 

[KBVol]

Wish Tennessee had players like Pitts and Toney. Unfortunately, we don’t have any playmakers like that. Maybe one day.

 

[99gator]

They're going to have to assign people to him to keep the agents away

 

[lawgator1]

Pitts. Wow

 

[VolinMichigan]

Wow. Defense optional for Ole Miss today. That could not have been easier for Uf

 

[KBVol]

He’s good too. Trask has really good footwork in the pocket and throws a accurate ball. Gators going to be tough to beat

Tough to beat for most everybody who plays them. Literally impossible, as usual, for Tennessee.

JB 32/42 489 5/2
KT 20/27 316 5/0
Not too far off of JB. Definitely the class of the SEC

 

[KBVol]

Pitts. Wow

First round stud.

 

[rjd970]

I know it’s probably a bit of both but I wonder how much of this is UF good and OM bad.

Pitts is unreal. Matchup nightmare.

Pitts is unreal. Matchup nightmare.

Florida is doing what they’re supposed to be doing and looking good doing it. Ole Miss looks HORRIBLE on D, but You can’t fault Florida for looking good taking care of business.

 

[JFreak]

Wow...

 

[lawgator1]

And then we have to play defense.... or more accurately we have to watch Ole Miss carve them up

 

[rjd970]

Smh

I’ve given up on that haha

 

[BUBear]

That first drive for Ole Miss in the second half is what Lane should have let his offensive coaches do all day.

 

[UTK]

Both teams already scored this half. What'd I miss lol

I think his point is, Florida's D ain't exactly looking stellar. Florida ain't gonna be able to get into shootouts with the upper half of the SEC and win all of them

 

[VolFreakJosh]

You could say the same about the posters bringing up JG in threads that don’t even apply to him.

 

[99gator]

That was a bomb

 

[VolforFootball]

Ole Miss offense already looks legit against a top-5 team in the nation. Lane is doing work. They’ll need another 1-2 years to get some better athletes on defense though.

 

[lawgator1]

Our defense is seriously in need of reworking.

 

[UTK]

If Ole Miss is the worst secondary in the SEC, UF making a case for the second worst
