I know the obvious answer SHOULD be more wins is always better and yes 4-0 is the goal, but if we found ourselves in a losing situation im curious as to what you all have to say about this subject......Would anybody rather go 2-2 in this 4 game stretch with one of the wins being against Florida or go 3-1 with the lone loss being against Florida. For me, I'll say 2-2 with us handing Florida their ass. I can't take another loss to these pieces of crap folks.

I'm not saying 4-0 isn't an option. I'm just saying if we were in a losing predicament and we took losses, which scenario would you choose. Hell yes I wanna go 4-0.

Well 4-0 would be best but if we can go 2-2 beating UF and UGA we will be in pretty good shape

I'm trying, but my goodness, my hatred is running deeper each year.

After all these years, my hatred is waning along with my expectations of beating Florida. At this point, I'd just rather win the East and play in the SECCG while the Gators stay home, no matter how it happens.

I'd like to say 4-0. However according to our past coaching performances my predicted outcome during this stretch is.......1-3. Then we will win the rest of the games and wind up 9-3. Then all the damn hype will start and we will be predicted to win the conference next year and contend for the National title with coach Butch Jones at the helm after he gets a 20 year extension at 10 million a year. And then we will here about how we have to play one game at a time or one play at a time and give 110%. Sh......., I'm sorry I just can't take this anymore.

From your question 2-2 beating UF. I cant stand losing to them. But i also cant stand losing to UFA and BAMA so its kinda hard. Maybe 3-1 with a loss to UF is better. IDK 4-0.

If we take out Florida this Saturday, I just hope it doesn't affect our play against Georgia in a negative way. We'll be riding on a stellar high and Jones better keep the team focused on the big prize. IMO, we're really gonna find out a lot about this team when we go to A&M.

If we go 3-1 after losing to Florida, then Butch will have performed a miracle. I fear what vfl34 said is true, that if we lose this week, Butch very well could lose the team. This is the biggest game of Butch's career.

3-1.

One streak continues and another one is broken (Bama). Not beating Florida could still cost us the East, but I just don't see them going any better than 10-2. So 3-1 keeps your SEC Championship hopes alive and playoff hopes as well.

I'd rather go 2-2 and beat Florida and Georgia since they're in the east. Then win out at 10-2 and play Bama in the SEC Championship and crush them enough and become the #4 seed in the playoffs. Then win it all and finish the season 13-2 National Champions and not have to worry about any "streaks" against our two biggest rivals going into 2017.

3-1....keep your eyes on the prize brother.

If...we pull off a win against Florida, and we play like we finally have have things together, then I'd say our chances against GA increase to being slightly in our favor. Against A&M, and Bama they increase from "lol why did we dress out", to "man if we only had a passing threat maybe we would have had a chance."

Unless we truly do have the unicorn playbook in the wings, we are probably 2-2 at best, if we pull of the win against Florida.

2-2 with wins over Florida and Georgia. Should win the East with that so long as we do not lose to Kentucky, Vandy, or Missouri.

Before the season got here the experts predicted us to go 2-2 during the next four games. We end up 10-2 and heading to the SEC championship and we did what we were suppose to this year.

Gonna be that guy and say if they lose to Florida on Saturday then we'll go 0-4.

This is a fragile team right now from the looks of it, so this game will be a big influence on the remainder of the season

If we lose to Florida, I'd say we still have a chance against Georgia, just not a good chance.
