This is the most in-depth preview on their site, and I don't think it's attributed to any one commentator.

NCAA College Football Take 2 - College Football - ESPN - ESPN

Ends like this:

Scouts' Edge
Tennessee's inexperience in the defensive back seven has been exposed at times, so don't be surprised to see a few big plays from the Gators' running backs. Brantley remains too inconsistent with his decision-making and accuracy to take full advantage, though. Tennessee's offense faces far better athletes than it's seen thus far, but will get the upset win thanks to Bray and his perimeter weapons, and Poole and a ground game that will keep Florida off-balance.

Prediction: Volunteers 28, Gators 24

Not real sure why they give Florida the coaching edge, though. Must hate us after all :)

ESPN will love us sooner rather than later... They hated us when we sucked, starting to get some love now that we are actually on the upswing. Anyone with a partially functional brain can see that we are rising fast. This excludes Gator fans who honestly believe they will win the East every year. We comin for ya Gators...

They get paid to talk and get other people talking. They create controversy when they can. It's their job. So

and don't get so worked up because they said this or that.

I am a Gator Hater and I will definately be watching the LSU vs. Gator game, the Bama vs. Gator game, the USC vs. Gator game and the Florida State vs. Gator game. I love seeing the look on the Gator players faces when they lose. It is priceless!!!!!
My favorite game was in 1995 vs. Nebraska when Tommy Frazier ran for 1,000 yards in one game and the score was 56 - 12. Spurrier's jaw was on the ground!!

I'm not sure either except for "name recognition". Weis is accomplished but I have become very impressed with Chaney. They're probably counting Muschamp as the DC over Wilcox... I'd buy that. I still don't know what to make of Wilcox. I wouldn't trade Baggett or Hiestand for anyone on their staff.

Dooley says and seems to do all the right things... but as you have pointed out in the past... he needs to win something before declaring him a success. In a real sense, neither HC has won anything impressive as a HC.

This should have been a great big "?".

I agree with the match ups but the last. I am notsure how they figure UF's coaches are any better. We all know what Weis proved when a HC and WM has yet to prove anything. DD has been a HC for not long, although not proven in Ws, he hasshown he can get the job done nad is turning the program around. Just because WM a DC at Texas and took the UF job does not mean squat.

Maybe it's just me but how can anyone say their coach is better?? Personally I think it's to early but if i had to pick one i would say Dooley bc at least he has experience. GO BIG ORANGE
