UF held Kentucky to 9 points on the road, and KY has 3 WRs with over 100 yds receiving.

UF is at home, and they are facing a Tennessee team with NO WRs with 100 yds receiving

On the brightside we don't lean on the pass like past Vols offenses.

Why we win:
Hurd
Kamara
Dobbs
Special teams
No backuo for Grier
No run game besides Grier
Barnett
Sutton
OBrien
Tuttle
Khalil

Tabor

I remember in the early 90s we had a 100% red zone touchdown conversion going into the 3rd Saturday in October. We maintained that 100% record against a brutal Alabama defense; problem was they only let us in the red zone once.

Point is, its just a bunch of lies, damned lies, and statistics. After the game, the losing team will be searching for moral victories and will undoubtedly be able to hang their hat on a half dozen statistics they "won." Look at the Oklahoma game and I'm sure we dominated in most statistical categories, but only 1 stat really will be remembered down the road, and that's points, which determines who gets the W.

Grier was leading rusher
250 yds total offense
6 sacks

How is our offense better than Kentucky's?

How many 5 stars, heck 4 stars does Kentucky have?

Do they have backs as talented as Kamara and Hurd? Do they have receivers as talented as Pearson, Malone, North, Jennings, Williams and Pig? Or 6 receivers that talented?

Do they have a tight end like Ethan Wolf?

Who did their 100 yard receiving games come against and is that a good barometer?

And we have 230 more TOTAL yards, more receiving TDs, rushing TDs, 238 more rushing yards (79.3 more yds per game), 21 more points per game, 63 more points scored. Our QBs combine for a better completion %, more YDs/A, more TDs and fewer interceptions.

On the surface, that looks disturbing, but when you dig a little deeper into the stats, a different picture emerges. Tennessee and Kentucky have virtually the same passing yardage at this point, but Tennessee has seven receivers with 45 yards or more, whereas Kentucky has two main receivers that account for most of their receptions. Also, Tennessee has 738 rushing yards, whereas Kentucky has 500 yards.

I think Tennessee wins because of a much stronger running game.

Again, misleading because of the BGU game. I bet we don't have 250yds of offense Sat
