at least our passing offense; mett missed more open receivers than any game he's played and there were a coupla key drops. boone was wide open on that one play and mett threw it about 5 ft over his head and then our TE was open for a TD on a play where florida had busted coverage. now that's it's over and we won, i'm glad he got his "bad game" out of the way.



I don't know about it being "off", we just faced an incredible D and didn't really have to open it up. WE probably went from the shotgun less than 5 times.

Landry dropped 2 passes and HArgreaves pretty much owned him today except for the incredible play Landry made on the near-pick. (to be fair, landry was injured)

No need to open it up when the other offense is LSU 09 offense and your RB is having his way with them.


Mett was a little off, but he's missed passes in other games too, he just made up for them.

Don't be so quick to forget how good Muschamp is at making halftime adjustments on D. He is one of the best.

where did our D come from?



Chavis blitzed a lot more and seemed to play more zone than we usually do. He also chose his faster players to blitz (eugene) so he could reach the QB in time. The zone coverage allowed our D to keep eyes on the QB.

I am not ready to say our D turned a corner, but they certianly looked better. Some of that is better play and tackling, but some of it is UF's style of offense that allows us to blitz and not have to be so spread out.

Our offense overall did good against a good defense. Mett missed a few passes, and our WR had some drops, but Florida eats a lot of clock with that offense, which limits offensive plays. With that being said, we ran the ball so well we didn't need to throw a lot. Why test a good CB group when hill and company are averaging 4+ yards a carry.
