My hope is that if our team does have access to this information it does not lead to overconfidence, but to the quiet confidence that this line is as it should be (or a pissed off reaction that it isn’t more).

Not cool. Florida is capable of beating us. They might have to have one of their best games of the year, but the rivalry factor makes this a lot closer than the spread. I hate it when we read crap like this. Hate it.

In an unrelated subject, Andy Dalton is a complete moron. 34 yards passing in the second half. One imagines the thoughts running through AJ Green’s head. If AJ was at Green Bay, Pittsburgh, or even Detroit, he would score 7-10 more TD’s per year, easy.

Here is what I think will happen. Athhough the UF coaching staffs were totally different I expect something similar to 2014. UF will use the off week to transition from a 5 star starter to a running QB.
Malik Zaire will be QB. Unlike 2014 UF wil not gash us on the ground.

Which would be interesting and keep Danielson analyzing, but my read is that the only chance this UF team has of competing is to get the ball over-the-top with some consistency. If their M.O. is to grind down this Georgia D, well then they’ll be scraping their collective egos from the turf before the 4th qtr.

Agreed I think UF has to hit the long ball. I also believe they have the best defense UGA has faced thus far, and would need to get multiple turnovers.
A win is the 1st step to flipping the momentum in the series. I am hopeful that this team will come out healthy and firing on all cylinders. Keep the pedal down until the clock strikes 0:00.00 4 times.

Of course they are going to throw. They watched the Mizzou game and have a game plan based on which direction the LB first favors when covering. Of course they have many O heads coming together for a plan to defeat us, trick plays conjured from HS fb will be the Soup de Jour, flea flickers ad nauseam, delay plays, wild lizards plays; anything to get points and keep it close to their horseshoe. If anyone thinks they won’t and that they won’t struggle to the last is fooling themselves .

I don’t want UF to roll over. I want them to give us all they got and take it like I better not finish that thought. Punk ass gators. Mark my words, there will be none of them in Duval Co by 6pm. The Landing? Dawg Party! And those that go, watch for the popo. They might not be in any mood for shenanigans or tomfoolery. Please be safe and keep it classy, Dawgs. You know the gators won’t.

This rat poison is much better than the old Kool Aide which wore off by kickoff. Dawgs by 17-24. Yes, they may try Zaire, and jet sweeps with trick passes off that, but they simply do not have the horses. Relax and enjoy this Saturday.

The run up to this year’s WLOCP reminds me a lot of 2014. Everyone seems to think UGA is a lock to win. Dangerous.
