Honestly, what are the chances that Florida actually loses another conference game?

[orangej]

I think most of us agree that Florida probably loses to LSU. I think out of Georgia, Ark and SC, they probably lose one. Not that it matters in the SEC, but I believe they lose to FSU to finish 8-4 and hopefully lose in a bowl game. I want a re-match with Alabama. I don't expect to win, but it will not be the same Tennessee team that lost the Alabama the first time. Alabama also has a number of hard games remaining, similar to our 4 game stretch and has already lost their safety for the season. The Iron bowl may also be for the SEC West. I want to win the East and give the West champion our best shot.

I agree; however, I watched Ark throw for 400 on Bama and turn the ball over five times in a 49-30 loss. I think Ark was out of gas against Aub and needs a bye week, much like us in our game against Bama. I think Allen lights up Florida...60/40 odds that Hogs win in Fayetteville. LSU will run up the score on Florida. Gators beat Georgia. I think we finish 10-2 and go to ATL.

If LSU shows up like they did against Ole Miss they will run all over the gators. Hopefully they lose to Georgia this week, but I don't see it.

I really dont know why people are saying this. I truly hope they do but I dont think OM is nearly as good at stopping the run as UF is. I hope LSU sets another SEC rushing record against the Gators but I think it will be tougher than some think.

I think you are right about Arkansas. I mean thy faced a guantlet almost like we did. Bama, Ole Miss and then Auburn is a tough stretch. I think they will look much better than they have after their bye week.

I agree BUT Florida hasn't played a good offense yet with the exception of us. We averaged 4 yds/carry and 20 yds/pass. I'm not saying that's earth shattering but I think it shows the ball can be moved on the Florida D.

with fournette running wild, lsu will curbstomp florida, handing the SEC east to UT!!!

 

[rockydoc]

McIlwain is a better coach than either Smart or Orgeron and Arky is tanking.

I give Trump a better chance of winning than us going to Atlanta.

 

[unioncityvol]

2 bye weeks in middle of season is huge. Florida dealt a real advantage. I say they win out.

Not sure, they had a month to prep for Michigan and got blasted.

They might not hit the long runs but they will pound on Florida for 4 quarters. The gators miss VH3 I don't care what anyone says. Tabor just isn't the same guy. LSU should win and it helps that it'll probably be a night game

 

[DaphneVol1]

Right now i would say LSU has the best chance to beat Florida. Before the auburn game i thought maybe Arkansas had a good chance now i am not so sure about that

 

[eakes]

McIlwain does wonders with QBs but neither of the present two QBs come close to Grier of last year. UF has little offense to speak of especially if they need to go the length of the field. Defense is good but can be scored on as TN proved.

Arkansas matches up well against UF and has a good chance of winning. LSU is more talented and with the new coach should out-physical Florida for a win. UGa is a puzzle, it all depends on which team shows up. If the Georgia QB in 'on' then it could be a rough day for Florida, alas I doubt that happening. South Carolina doesn't have enough of anything to beat Florida.

In summary two, maybe three, losses for UF in their four remaining SEC games.

I agree it won't be the same UT team, but will it be better? Some teams have been destroyed by the kind of shellacking Bama dished out.

No I don't think this team will be shattered by the bama game. I think they realize that injuries and timing made it worse than it should have been no matter what. Based on their performances all year I would expect them if healthy to fight like all get out whomever we may be playing in the SEC championship game. This team isn't the kind to back down. GBO!!!!!

 

[Pappy]

The 3 teams remaining on their schedule with the best chance to beat them are Georgia, Arkansas, and LSU. Let's analyze this shall we.... Georgia is not very good and just lost to Vandy. Furthermore, Florida will be coming off a bye week when they play and will be well rested. Next, they play Arkansas and LSU on the road. Now those games are going to be tough simply because they are big road trips. Having said that, there's nothing about those teams that makes me confident that they'll beat Florida because they have both stunk it up at times. I think there's a good chance that Florida will win out in conference play and go to Atlanta. I hope the Gators lose all three, but I just dont see it happening.

'honestly'? really, you want us to be honest on this forum? sheesh....

 

[utvolfan18]

I think the Gators lose one. But what are the chances you win out? Isn't that the question? As of now you are in third place, behind Kentucky.

But Gators and Kentucky have used up their cupcake wins. UT's are still remaining. It's like playing the first 2 games of the season and screaming, "We're in first place!". Silly gator.

Haha. Obviously he has no clue that we can switch places with the gators as early as Saturday.

 

[SaintLouisVol]

I could easily see the Gators splitting their last four conference games. They only have one of those games at home.

And, if they win out, they deserve to make the trip.

LSU with Fornette back man handles Florida

 

[PowerSweep]

based on what the vegas lines will be the gators are going to be about 70% to beat georgia, 50% to beat arkansas, 90% to beat usc, and 25% to beat lsu..

that adds up to maybe 5-10% chance of winning out..ut has a better chance of losing a game and going to atlanta than fla winning out.

 

[Iam4utalways]

900?

I called out for exaggerating....."we ONLY had 700 yards".

700 and only shouldn't be in the same thought.

USC was #1 in the SEC for a week IIRC.

 

[508mikey]

SEC forcing a no later than 330 kickoff in Death Valley for the game -- UF is scared of night games there

 

[VolsRule]

fournette goes for 150-200---lsu rolls in that game by 13+.

 

[LittleVol]

LSU might win the whole damn thing.

If they Beat Florida, Alabama. Texas A&M then Tennessee in the SEC title game... they would get into that play-off.

Same for us if we won out and beat them.

Watch out for LSU. They look just as good as Bama right now...

 

[OHvol40]

Florida-LSU has been very close and competitive about every year recently, including last year.

This year will have more juice because of the bad blood that developed over the hurricane, the tense back-and-forth on rescheduling, and the stuff said on social media and other places about this team "being scared," that team finagling a home game out of a natural disaster, etc.

If SECCG births are on the line, this game will be epic.

I think the gator's shaky O will be hard pressed to score 14 on LSU in BR and LSU's run game will lean on the gators till they break. It may be a good game for 3 quarters... maybe

 

[OHvol40]

I mean a healthy and motivated UT team could have a chance. But healthy would include Kmac, JRM and Sutton. But still college football is a fickle beast. Just like Penn St pulling off the unthinkable vs Ohio State anything can happen any given saturday. But as our team sits, even if we get back everyone who isnt done for the year and they play the best they can i still think bama would beat us 9 outta ten tries.

A lot of things still to be played out. If the script is flipped and UT is relatively healthy rolling into the SECCG and Bama suffers some injury bug problems to some key guys, you never know how it could play out.
