Everyone seems to have forgotten what our tigers are capable of after these last two weeks. Rewatch the Washington Highlights or the entire game if you can. That's a damn strong football team. We still are, even if we're missing a few of the players from that game.

Florida is shaping up this year. Can't wait to see our guys rip em apart!

P.S. I didn't see a stache on Zach that week.

Very good. When we play to our potential, there is no question. Just need to eliminate the mistakes made the last 2 weeks, but I am :beatdeadhorse: .

If LSU comes in and limits the turnovers/penalties...they will run away from florida by double digits. Watch. This is a prime game to bet...everyone down on LSU and Les.....

We are a good team that could beat anybody on any given day.

But we aren't as good as everyone thought we would be at this point. Everybody just assumed we would definitely be better but maybe that's not the case. I mean you can't really say untill after this week. If we drum Florida everyone will be back on the we are a national championship team instead of the sky is falling theme that everybody is currently on.

Isn't that what every team strives for
The question is will we limit the turnovers and penalties? Oh, lets not forget block and catch the ball.

Depends on whether the team that played Washington or the team that played Towson takes the field in the Swamp.

We will be fine. We are a young team playing with injuries. and we are still a VERY STRONG football team.

Right now, not very. Decent, but they are not world beaters by any stretch. This week's game is as big as it gets in my opinion. It will set the tone for the rest of the year. Its a bench mark, baily wick, watershed, fork in the road, defining moment type of game. (I would use more idioms but can't think of them at the moment. )

We're fumbling 100 times a game and you don't think it's something we need to work on

I have confidence that our guys will show up with intensity for a game with top 10 ranked Florida, our SEC east rival.

I'll go out on a limb and say that if we can throw/catch/run the ball effectively, block and tackle well while limiting turnovers/penalties, maximizing time of possession and maintaining balance on offense, we can beat anybody!
We just have to stay positive and the players need to give 110% and stay focused.

I'm gonna take a chance and say that if we score more points than the other team, we just might win.

The team is very talented, but outside of the Washington game, they have played very sloppy at times (Fumbles & penalties). They also have looked pretty disinterested in the first 5 games. Is that goining to be emblematic of way they play the rest of the season? Or is that play symptomatic of playing 5 games that most felt they should and would win easily? Who knows? But we'll start to get answers this weekend. If they come out flat and sloppy against a top 10 UF team, then we're probably looking at a good but not great football team.

Losing on the road in the SEC to top-flight teams happens. But not "showing up" for such games is inexcuseable. We'll see what happens Saturday.

With our offense what you see is what you get. And it doesn't change. Look at the last three years.

Our D is freaking awesome and brings us to championships.

We can beat anyone when wedont make mistakes.

That isn't required in the Big 12

Seems like a very young and undisciplined team. Turnovers and Penalties will kill us if we don't fix it.
