Florida has been, and will always be, a front-runner. If they have their egos bruised thoroughly on Saturday, it will help us. Their fans will begin getting frustrated and pissy, because that is what they do.
Now, the team may be super resilient, but I want whatever puts a damper on that crowd for September 25.
Yes. The talent gap and there is one will create a situation where UT has to play damn near perfect to win. Quality depth shows up quickly in the SEC. Not a conference where you can mask your flaws unless you have that guy at QB. UT does not.UT so far this season has been unable to demonstrate they can play as a solidly executing football team. Too many turnovers and penalties to date. What that means is Florida does not have to do much other than show up and UT will do things to beat themselves.
I am hoping Bama flat out beats them up physically. Beat up so bad that not even 85 personal 21 year old big hooter having blue eyed blond Swedish massage specialists could cure with 24/7 around the clock special treatment. Beat up so damn bad mentally that when Mrs. Mullen tongue kisses each one of them it makes them think that it is a normal thing for a grown 49 year old lady to do to an 18 year old boy that she could nearly be the grandmother of. I’m talking completely broken for life.Either a UF victory that makes them overconfident or an absolute beat down both on the scoreboard and physically.
A close loss... just leaves them hacked off looking for an outlet.
In a true ”meteor” game, our two biggest rivals play each other this Saturday afternoon in Gainesville.
Bama is a 15 point favorite.
With the Vols up next for Florida, what helps us more.
Do we want Bama to rout them and demoralize them or for UF to pull the upset and then have trouble coming down off of that big high against us?
Bama beatdown of UF is best case.
UF gets a conference loss.
Bama likely exposes their weaknesses giving us a blueprint for success.
UF probably plays Richardson who may not be fully recovered from his hammy and probably aggravates it.
Long term:
Recruits see UF is no closer than anyone else to beating bama, so they get zero recruiting boost that a W would provide.
Bama beating UF is just business as usual for them and they won’t stand to really gain anything else than a conference win.
You want bama to beat the dog $HIT out of UF.In a true ”meteor” game, our two biggest rivals play each other this Saturday afternoon in Gainesville.
