Sure it could happen. The superior team doesn't always win. I mean teams that were way worse than LSU is right now have beaten top 5 teams.

Especially with the game being at home, at night..Yeah I think they've got a shot at it.

Florida didn't throw everything they have against Tenn. Who knows Urban might have been telling the truth. Too many runs play calling. So when they do come around for us, they will probably try to pysch themselves up.

Our guys will have to be bump. last time with a weaker Fla team they took our experience and older team to the limit and gave us all we wanted. This time, not only are we facing them again, but they return most of their starters and they just won the NC with most of that team.

I hope that our team can live up to their potential and contain Florida.

If our offense can put together some drives and score some points on the ground or through the air,...and our defense can hold
florida to a relatively low number of points i think we may have a chance.

2 games in t-bag has the lowest passer rating in 4 years, lowest run avg., and is on pace to throw more ints and be sacked more than he has in 4 years. All this and he hasn't got to the meat of the schedule. Add in a fumble. I don't think t-bag can live up to the hype. Plus bye Oct 10 his team will be tired of him getting all the attention and yelling at them everygame.

I was pretty confident that we would give them a game last.... I hope we fair better than that. It was traumatic watching it from the Swamp.. Traumatic.

i think can beat florida. monte kiffin had a good gameplan for them and really laid out a good blueprint on how too slow down that offense. if tennessee had somewhat of a passing game to go with their running game, they could've won saturday.

I tend to believe UM3 to a point. I was there. We didn't even attempt to throw the ball much. The score was about to be 30-6. That fumble was a 14-point swing.

Can the Tigers win? Sure. home field, night game, yadda yadda yadda... ... But just because some think Florida had a bad night, it'd be wise to bet that the Gators aren't that bad every game.

And don't count out UT's D. It's too early to tell, but I'd bet they're better than most people are giving them credit for.

Take last year. It took the better part of a third of the season to get the UF O running. It's a little rusty right now. Plus, we have some players that are ill, a few injuries to key players, and that equates to less production.

As for Tebow, we're 3 games in (two if which he didn't even play half the game in total), and I think he's still feeling out this new team. He's obviously still going the be the best athelete on the field in the LSU game (for both teams), so it'd be wise not to count him out as putting UF on his back and carrying it single-handedly to victory.

Right now, I say UF 27 - LSU 16.

Georgia, UF, Bama, and Ole Miss will be all be very very tough...we can beat any of them and we can lose to any of them...Sure we could go 4-0 but realistically i just hope we can go 3-1 vs those 4. And if i had to lose one I would prefer UGA or UF so we can have a chance to roll the dice in the SECC game.

Anything is possible, however, if all goes as planned, I see Florida winning pretty easily. They are bringing a very experienced team that has great leadership into Tiger Stadium. Their def ends are going to cause trouble all night and Tebow will be his regular self. I see LSU keeping it close till halftime and then pulling away. If I were to predict a score, I'd say something like 45-21.

Well it certainly looks like you can have some success running right at them.

Tennesse and Cropmton kept it within 10 at the swamp. Jefferson is miles ahead of Crompton and our defensive may not be as good as Tenn but i like what they are doing. Its at home at night, as long as no one says there gonna try to take Tebow out of the game we sure arent going to go down without a fight. With that said Florida isnt gonna go down without one helluva a fight either.

Florida's receivers had injuries (Cooper & Thompson) had injuries. Aaron Hernandez and Jeff Demps had the flu (six players got it now). Spikes had Achilles issues. Overall, the Gators just had a bad game. Hopefully the bye week ahead of LSU will give them time to rest up and game plan for the Tigers. The UGA game should give us some good tape to review.

Just hope LSU's upcoming flu bout doesn't coincide with Oct. 10th!
