What are you even referring to?

"Because Fla beat us convincingly, they will win again, with or without Tebow" = your prediction

LSU beating Ky by 49 at home, and a great team returning is a sure win = your stale-arse argument.

Your logic didnt mean an LSU win on the road at Ky, now did it?

Miles vs. Meyer: 2-2




Both times we beat them at home we had superior talent, and needed lucky breaks to get past them. Both times they beat us on the road they beat us convincingly.


Wow, I didn't know it was possible to fit so much bullshite into such a small space.

LSU has not had more talent than Florida at any point since about 1979. Whatever his failures in other areas, Ron Zook had no problems recruiting. Florida has superior talent to LSU now, and has EVERY year since at least 1980.

Lucky breaks to win in 2005? Hell, they got FIVE frickING TURNOVERS and still couldn't win the damned game. How were WE lucky?

While they certainly did win convincingly in 2008, I don't know what game you were watching in 2006. We outplayed them physically, beat them in the stats, but handed them 16 of their 23 points, plus cost ourselves at least 7 points, with five turnovers, a blocked punt and a safety. We also had two legit touchdowns called back by bullshite officiating (on the same drive). Florida won fair and square, but if there was ever a case of winning with lucky breaks, this was it, not 2005 or 2007.

We beat UK by 49 the year before


Yes. Teams change from year to year. UK was much better in 2007 than in 2006, even though their record was similar. Our defense wasn't nearly as good in 2007 as it was in 2006.

Arkansas was 6-6.


Go check again.

quote:

Moo St will be ramped up offensively, we get a rude awakening and win there. Ga & Bama suffer through what we did this yr at QB. They will need to throw the ball at times, and it won't be pretty.




Tebow is coming back, and if he doesn't, Brantley will beat us. I guess the rest of their offense and defense will just pack it in, since the majority of the team is coming back.


What the hell does Tebow coming back have to do with Mississippi State, Georgia and Alabama?

quote:

I don't think it's a trap game when you get raped by one team (Ole Miss) on Senior Day, and lose to the other (Arkansas) two straight years when they're sub .500


What drugs were you on in 2007? I'm still looking for the sub .500 Arkansas team that played in the Cotton Bowl that year.

We were more talented than UF from 2005-2007. Even our 2006 team was superior talent wise to their squad.

I was clearly referring to 2007. I don't think they turned the ball over once from 04-05 against us.

then

People love to say we just shot ourselves in the foot that game, but they forced us into bad decisions. We were rattled the entire game and never established a rhythm. UF beat us 23-10, so I wouldn't necessarily call that close.

or 2007


UF had this game in control, but for some reason, started running the ball and fumbled. We needed five 4th downs to beat a bunch of freshmen on defense and a one man show on offense.

We only gave up 40 yards more per game in 2007, but we forced 16 more turnovers. Wasn't nearly as good? That's a stretch.

You know I was referring to his points about UF, so don't waste your time trying to be a smartass.

They were both years at the time they played LSU (3-4) and (1-6).

depends if Tebow and Stafford go pro.


Tebow and Stafford are great (especially the former). But more important than whether they stay or leave is who we get as a DC.

Great DC and we go 11-1 regular season.

Offense will be better next year, so im not to worried. Guess 8-9 wins, if our defense plays like they did this year, 10-11 wins if we somehow can defend the pass next year.

9/3 -10/2, if defense improves to LSU standards.

Lose to Florida, Bama maybe Ole Miss
