UFs Top Player Out

[VolRage]

I wish everyone's best players are playing and healthy (all players for that matter). I don't want the opponent to ever have a reason they can claim caused them to lose when they are upset.

To hell with Florida and their roster. How many scholarship players are our Vols down? How many of our recent transfers would be on the field playing for us if they hadn’t chose to desert our team? Florida could lose 1/3 of their defensive and offensive starters and they’d still be in better shape than our Vols.

If you want additional locker room material, it was mentioned that if he had to he could play, but they are deciding to hold him out.

lol

And the thread title should probably read “one of UF’s top players out.” Arguably, this thread could be about Anthony Richardson, as he’s quite possibly the best player on the team.

Elam is certainly the best DB at this stage, but he’s one of several “top players.” Zach Carter, AR15, Emory, Brenton Cox, the OL, Gervon Dexter, Moon, the RB’s, Copeland could all be considered top players.

Nah he's THE best player.

I hope all their best players are out this week and back next week.

I hope all of the UF players' girlfriends/boyfriends break up with them tonight leaving them sad and butt hurt and struggling to see the field because they are crying so much.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

If we're winning, let's do it against everything they have.

All teams are what they are when they hit the field. I don't wish injury on anyone, we have all had our share. Nobody cries when ours are out. We have no control over who plays, I just want to win. GBO!!!!!

Everyone look how awesome this guy thinks he is. Attention needed, so hurry!

 

[JohnWardForever]

Not against Fla or Bama. A win against them under any circumstances would be fine with me.

Exactly! A W is a W, regardless. No Yeah Buts .

Projected first rounder, CB Kaiir Elam is out for the game vs Vols. Knee problem.

Hes good.

I can't find anything that says he is out.

I do expect that they will / may hold him out because he will be needed more against Kentucky than he will be against Tennessee. Our backups have played a lot the first two games so it won't be a big adjustment.

 

[90 Vol]

Guess we'll just have to see how this affects the outcome of the game then...

It won't.

 

[VOLED]

Maybe we can overthrow the backup CB tomorrow night.

Too funny.

 

[Orange defense]

Well, some of us will believe, even when we have no reason to do so. You see, we got something negavols and other doubters don't and will never have.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

The Vols haven't been "full strength" in forever and most teams miss a key starter or backup every week. Nobody really cares after the game is decided. We could say we're without K'Rojn Calbert thus the reason our o-line is struggling.

As others have pointed out, taking advantage of a lesser CB might be good for a few plays per game - if the QB had time, WR gets open, accurate throw, etc. This news doesn't improve our chances much.

 

[FLVOL_79]

This changes everything!!!!






Just kidding it means nothing

 

[WoodsmanVol]

To the negavols. You never listen.

 

[T2P_Priceless]

Have you seen our record against them in the last 20 years? Also, we need the confidence and jolt for recruiting. I’m happy with every advantage

 

[Rockytopvol86]

I’ll take anywins at this time. Even if it means them not being at their best

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Everyone look how awesome this guy thinks he is. Attention needed, so hurry!

You probably one of those guys that wants to keep our best players out to rest them when we play our toughest competition.

 

[Memphisvol87]

For fans that haven’t won anything important since 2016 and lost a bunch of games we shouldn’t have because of injury… you guys sure have high standards on the win column.

 

[Jaws]

Nah he's THE best player.

Eh, maybe.

Personally, as much as I love Elam, I’d rather be without him than Emory or AR for certain, any of the 5 starters on the OL, pass rushers Carter, Moon, Cox.

In a perfect world we all have our best players available every game, but sometimes that doesn’t happen. Here’s to zero injuries during the game for both teams.

On Sunday, nobody will even be thinking of the hurt guy. There will be a score. There will be a W or an L.
Only catch is that now, Florida once again has the chance to showcase a new Heisman candidate - the backup that gets his first start against Tennessee.

Maybe someday….right now we need WINS…take em whenever you get the chance

 

[Daniel_Lincolns_Foot]

We play and and try to beat the players Florida, or any team, puts on the field. Do injuries maybe give us an advantage? Of course! But that's the nature of sports--we can't control who is injured on the opposition.

A win is a win. I don't care who is missing. We're missing 14 scholarship players, including our top 2 rushers from last year, top tackler, best corner, etc. It's just the nature of the game in my opinion, you play with who you got.

It won’t matter.

Always love how it goes from "your WRs are horrible" to "if our top CB was playing, we would have won." Like if our WRs are so bad then there shouldn't be excuses no matter who you play lol
