Until someone shows me that they can slow down Texas Tech's offense, they are # 2 in the country behind Bama. Do you really think that Vandy could beat Texas Tech? The only thing that can be said about Bama and Fla is that Ole Miss beat Fla at Fla, and Bama beat Ole Miss at Bama. If I do remember correctly, Bama was handing it to Georgia 31-0 at halftime and let up on the gas in the 2nd half. Just because a team doesn't score 50 points a game doesn't mean that they aren't as good as a team that does. I'll take a Saban coached team to beat the Gators. The difference in Bama and the rest of the teams that Fla has manhandled is that Bama has a dominating offensive and defensive line. Fla will not be able to be nearly as effective in their offense against Bama and Bama will not waiver in this game. Fla will have trouble running the ball and be forced to pass more than they would like. Due to this, Bama's defense will have a feast on Tebow and impose their will on this game. Bama's offense will mythodically move the ball down the field, as they have all year, and beat the Gators in a lower scoring game than expected. My prediction is Bama 31 Fla 27. I feel that many Vol fans have let their hatred for Bama get in the way of sensible judgment. Saban and company will remind us just how good they are.
Also, how in the world can you say that Georgia is the sixth best team in the country? I think that Georgia is about the 12th best team and saying that they are
two halves away from being undefeated is like Fulmer saying that Tenn is 10 plays away from being perfect. It doesn't work like that. Also, how can you say that Georgia is better than Texas Tech or Mizzou? I think Tech would beat Georgia by at least 2 scores if not more and Mizzou would probably beat you guys also. Too, what makes you think that Georgia could beat Oklahoma State? If I had to bet on this one, I'd take Oklahoma State. Oklahoma State,Texas Tech, and Mizzou would all put Auburn away with ease and not struggle like your so called #6 team in the country did today. After watching the Ga/Aub game today, you might want to rethink things and edit your post.
You guys need a late int to beat Kentucky and trail in the 4th to Auburn only to escape narrowly,thanks to the lack of a pass interference call late in the game, yet you are the # 6 team in the country.Looks like your guys have played more than 2 lousy halves of football this year. It's very obvious that you are wearing red sunglasses with puppy prints on the lenses.
Let's face it,you guys were a preseason #1 and have turned out to be the bust that most people, outside of Athens, thought you would be. #10 would have been about right for you guys coming into the season but the folks that make these polls don't get to see the entire story. They see that you guys finished the season with 6 wins in a row and blowout over a highly overrated Hawaii team that had no business playing in the Sugar Bowl. In reality, you guys lost to an average South Carolina team, got steamrolled by the Vols, narrowly escaped Vanderbilt and Troy, beat a Florida team with an injured Tebow(he was their entire team setting up everything with his ability to run), and did what about 6 SEC teams would have done against Hawaii. The preseason #1 ranking was really quite silly considering the reality of how you guys finished versus how the pollsters comprehended your finish plus you had the toughest schedule that I've ever seen in college football this season. Your bulldogs are good but they are not great and shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as Bama, Texas Tech, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, or USC. Also, they are not better than Mizzou,Oklahoma State, or several other teams. #6 sounds a little high to me and I'm still thinking about #12.
