Concerns about the Florida game

I've got to say, with USC going down this weekend and Alabama and LSU sitting at 1-2, I am growing more and more concerned with our visit to The Swamp on October 6. The Gators impressed me this weekend and are starting to have that "Nobody believes in us" look in their eyes.
The Tigers have not been tested by a quality opponent yet this season, but the Gators will give us that test, especially on the defensive side of the ball.
Does anyone else have a heightened awareness of this game now that USC lost, given that both LSU and Alabama will have to run the table the next six weeks to ensure a 1-2 matchup?

Does not compute! USC's loss and our ranking should have nothing to do with it. Fla's road wins vs. 2 respectable SEC foes have a lot more to do with it. Fortunately, Mett will have one road game in a hostile environment under his belt before them. I'd worry about Auburn before Fla. It's the SEC--anything can happen

I don't think anyone assumed going into the swamp was going to be the same as playing NT at home, but I think any rational college football fan and LSU fan understands that Florida's staring squad lines up well against everyone in the SEC. However, they don't have the 2 deep of LSU. It will be a game of attrition, but unless LSU makes mistakes, Florida won't win. Also, realize that Florida hasn't played any great defenses yet and they have still had to come from behind in their past 2 games. The best thing Florida has going for it is their coaching staff makes very good halftime adjustments.

If LSU shows up and plays their game they will have no problem with Florida.

It will likely be a tough game. I've been saying such since the offseason. Florida has recruited well, they have speed, Muschamp is a much improved gameday coach in his second year, and they are finally enjoying some stability at the QB position. The Swamp is an imposing venue and Miles is 1-2 there. The victory came in the waning seconds of the game and required a fortuitous bounce on a fake punt. We should win, but I doubt we'll annihilate them as we did last season.

Florida is a tough venue and their staff seems to make good adjustments.
That being said, Bowling Green ran for 101 yards (and they're a passing team), aTm sacked Driskell 6 times and Tennessee is just not very good (UF looked really good against Tennessee last year too). Bearing those things in mind, I think LSU will be able to run on them (and, therefore throw, on them) and I think our defense eats them alive.
