Does Kiffin realize what kind of team Florida returns?

I won't gurantee a win, it's a rivalry game. But really? Why would you piss off a team like Florida and a coach like Meyer? No one has gotten revenge better and more frequently than Florida under Meyer. In 2007 Geno Hayes talked trash about Florida and Tebow, result Gators 45-12. In 2008, an LSU DL talked trash as well, result Gators 51-21. In 2008 a year after watching UGA celebrate in the endzone in Jacksonville the Gators got revenge, 49-10. In 2008, OU DB Nic Harris said Tebow wouldn't be a top 3 QB in the Big 12, result Gators 24-14. Is it really smart of Kiffin do this?

short term, no. Long term, absolutely. It gets UT relevant again and allows us to begin to close the gap rather than cede it passively.

why not some rattle some cages, light the fires, get some swagger in your team, why sit around and talk like we are going to be mediocre, i mean being pumped at neyland lately has been meant that really drunk guy that makes no sense in his rants,

Yea it is. Beacuse unlike Fulmer Kiffin does have some balls! He isnt scared of Miles, Saban, Meyer, Spurrier, or Richt & he isnt afraid to say it aloud. If/When we beat Florida next year all these people saying it was a bad idea for Kiffin to say this will be saying i knew we could beat them.

If you're silly enough to believe that the revenge factor mattered in those games, then no, it isn't smart. However, if you're bright enough to understand that UF won because they, in every instance, had a much better football team, then you are well aware that it doesn't matter one freaking iota.

the thing is, nobody is probably gonna be thinking about this 7 months from now


Oh yea they will because you know ESPN & other sports affiliates will be bringing this up all week of the Florida game. Even what Kiffin said the day he got hired.

If you are confident in your ability to coach then making another team mad is irrelevant.

Who cares. Whats florida going to do, beat us by 50? Already happened. Rape our women and children, put our heads on a stake? Who cares. You dont like it because its not what you are used to from a Tennessee coach. Get used to it.

Honestly...do you think CUM will ever take his foot off the gas pedal, no matter who he's playing? I vote when he bloodies our noses next year, we laugh and spit blood in his face and ask him if that's all he's got.

I see your point...I'm a lifelong Vol, but CLK has no business giving Florida ANY bulletin board material with 7 months before the kickoff. We were able to convince 2 committments to come to UT on the eve of NSD...we should just let our actions speak for themselves. When we beat UF, we can talk trash. Until then, we should shut up.

The only difference is that if it's a tight game there be be no change. If they are winning, UF will pour it on unlike last year.

Fact:

Meyer would put as many points on the board as possible regardless of what Kiffin says.

If CLK is worried that something he says will get us beat then he's the wrong coach for the job.

I don't think this is about baiting anyone either. He just says what he believes. IMO that's a refreshing change.

Well, I'm sure CUM will pen another self-aggrandizing book with CLK name prominently mentioned, then CLK will understand the severity of his offence, kneeling at the alter of gator nation begging forgiveness for his youthful transgression, ohhhhhhh the horror...

The day of our coach looking scared to death on the sidelines, crossing his legs like he has to pee the whole game, and incessantly clapping like he has no clue what is going on or how to change it are over.

Interesting that UF fans are talking about how bad we will get beat next year and not how CUM has been recruiting outside of the rules for years.
