Mizzou's Off is 112th in FBS, but their D is 22nd. With 4 INT takewaways, UF only beat Mizzou by 7 in the Swamp.

UT has the 18th best O in FBS but the 115th best D.

With similar disparity between O and D stat standings, and with a mobile QB (like Franklin), UF rang up 37 and 550 at Neyland.

12 sacks thru 8 games.

Sentimore, Big Dan, Couch, Herman...a semi-nimble sofa can get away from them.

It's already a given Franklin will have a career day against our D. Every qb we have faced has, don't think it will change Saturday.

You don't have enough posts to judge him. You need four years worth. Hold your opinion until 2016.

I hope that was a joke. Some people have a life and don't spent their life on this site. Everyone is entitled to their opinion regardless of the number of posts or length of time. If people didn't give their opinions on this site. It would be shut down due to lack of activity. LOL

It was. He posted in another thread he agreed with the experts that three years was not a large enough sample size to judge Dooley. He has to be loser for four years before we can make up our minds. I was making light of that. :)

The problem is, at 115th in the country, their best game is worse than almost everybody else's.

FYI - one of the main reasons Mizzou's O has been subpar is because they've been without their starting QB for a good chunk of the season. same situation we had last year..

DGB is gonna have a breakout game against our secondary.. book it

He only missed 3-4 games; two of which they won

His play and issues this season have more been an issue for their offense's production than his not being there.

And really their bigger issue (besides a lack of just getting the offense to work) has been their oline getting decimated enough by injury before and during the year, that they've pretty much been forced spend much of it down to an oline pretty much composed of true freshmen, walk-ons, and third string



And DGB as their #3 receiver really hasnt done / been used much at all throughout the season; he's just a name at this point...I'm not sure he's the receiver people should be "booking" on at this point...

He's not really all that mobile at this point, he's still recovering from his knee injury (he only put up about 29 yards running)...he was at the point though where last week before the game they had talked about putting in the backup (RS Fr) for designed runs

Yep. To put it in perspective, in the SEC, the next three worst are Auburn at 85, Arkansas at 72 and UK at 71.
