Which gives them more time to prepare for us. Shall we be more concerned about that game? Do y'all think Les' team has been starting to prepare for the Florida game since this week? Florida looks really good against Tennessee. I think they have a legit shot at upsetting us if we keep playing sloppy football.

Most will think I am crazy, but I think that the UF game in the SWAMP will be tougher than ANY other game this season.

I prefer our team to have a late bye, like we do before Bama, than having an early bye like Florida.


You know the gators are just getting into a rhythm and now they have to take a week off. Plays to our favor.

We need to be more concerned with fixing our own weaknesses than any other team or their bye. We fix our shite and we won't have to worry about anything else, we continue to not fix our shite and it's same old

No man you are not crazy. I for one believe the Florida game will be just as tough as the Bama game if not even tougher. No one can afford to count out the effect of the loudness in Swamp on the game.

You serious Clark?

Yes any game in swamp is tough, this year especially but nowhere near as Bama this year at home.

LSU will beat the Hell out of Florida. It will be close early, but they will run away late. It will deflate the bubble and send the gators reeling.

If we play like we did last weekend, Fla will beat us.

FLA. in the swamp is a tough draw no matter what the records are. However, I am not impressed with the gator's body of work thus far. Beating a Tennessee team at home was a chore but Tenn. has no resume. Last year they were in disarray and Dooley is a couple of losses from getting fired. Boom seems to be building a formidable program but I don't think they are there yet. If they can hang with the Tigers then they will earn the hype. I just don't think we can put much stock in the Tenn. win.
LSU went into a very hostile Auburn stadium and came away with a win, despite major mistakes. FLA. is gonna be tough but I don't think they will be a major stumbling block. I expect that the team will get a major test and will have to play much better than their Auburn outing to win, but I think that they will rise to the occasion by beating FLA.
It will be a typical SEC slug-fest with the game decided in the fourth quarter but the Tigers will come away with a victory. I predict they will win 24-14.

The Bama game, on the other hand, will be a clash of titans. They are evenly matched and it will come down to who wants the win more. Who wants to be the best and who is best prepared on that particular day. I hope and pray it is the LSU Tigers but at this point it is too close to call.
In any case I will be there yelling as loud as I can and willing my team to victory!!!

Going to be a tough game, much tougher than Auburn at home......

I'm frankly not sure whether or not the Towson game will help or hurt - If we think of it as full-speed practice (although obviously slower than UF, it's at least 'for real'), then it's probably a good thing?

You don't say? Really?





That hasn't been said on here within the last week.




One game at a time, geez. Some "fans" are still losing their minds after the last game.

But in the meantime, you don't want to see any new injury going into the FlA week. Let's just try to lead by four TDs in the first half and rest all the first and second team.
