lol poor tenn fans you were all so excited. we're good again! only to be crushed by the team you probably hate the most. clemson may get crushed next weekend, but i really don't think so. it will be a good game. fsu has looked awesome, but they also haven't played anyone at all. our defense has looked bad at times, but that's the 2nd game that they only gave up 1 td. fsu has a great defense but they will not shut our offense down. i'm looking forward to it. and it turns out i might be home to watch it. more car trouble and we're probably not going to midtown

It's not so much the loss. I had Florida as a loss on my prediction for the year, in fact. It's that they played well for over half the game, but when things started to go south, they imploded rather than rallying. This was basically what they did last year as well. I don't think they are a good team overall, but I was really hoping that they had put that behind them at least.

Ughhhhh. I was just hoping Bray would show progress from his past SEC games. The one thing that goes completely against Bray is every SEC performance has been mediocre at best. He's great outside of the conference, not so much in it. Maybe it's our o-line and pressure getting to him or maybe the speed of the lbs that cover the middle. Whatever it is, he nearly had 3 picks in the first quarter alone and ended up only completing 50%, 2 td, and 2 ints. Disappointing that we lost after the good first half. Hard to say what went wrong, other than giving up all those long runs out of nowhere.
It's possible Muschamp & Co are master halftime coaches, because they've turned their team around 2 weeks in a row at halftime.
At least we have a win in store for next week and will be 3-1 before a 4-game stretch against ranked opponents, 3 of them in the top 7
It does not matter how good your passing game can be, with out a running game you are dead in the water. UT is one dimensional at this time. When you could not run the ball, we started to T-off on the passing game. I am loving how the changes we have made at half time as made a huge difference the past two game. Great job by Muschamp and our coaches! Go Gators! I am also happy to see 2nd string players in the game during the 2nd quarter. This allows the 1st string to rest and have good legs in the 4th quarter. Which maybe another reason we dominated the 4th quarter. I know many teams rotate players on the line, but when a defense is struggling it seems the 1st string is back in ASAP. I did not see that on Saturday. Coach had a game plan and stuck with it. Wildcats, we will see you this Saturday!
edit: Very happy to see USC and Kiffin lose! Go Stanford, but how in the hell do you go from ranked 21st to 9th? WTF?!
and Sang, sorry to say, but FSU defense will shut down Clemson's mediocre offense

I think Clemson-FSU is going to be a good game. I think the most interesting dynamic of it is that both teams are relatively untested. FSU played Wake Forest who isn't what I would call a powerhouse, and Clemson played Auburn who needed OT to beat UL-Lafayette and has apparently decided to be terrible this year.
Clemson's offense is 23rd in passing, 30th in rushing and 23rd in points for. I don't think that would qualify them as mediocre, but you also have to consider who they have played so far.
Edit: I would agree with steph that, either way, Clemson's defense is much more the question mark than their offense.
Thank you Steph, but I stand by my point. FSU will shut down Clemson's, better than, mediocre offensive.
people forget that clemson put 35 on pretty much this same defense last year.
Well, that was last year and although it dose not matter, I will mention how Wake Forrest put 35 up on FSU last year as well. We see how that rematch turned out. I can pretty much guarantee FSU defense has not forgotten about Clemson putting 35 points on them and I bet that score, that newspaper clip is posted in the locker room right now as we discuss this very topic. FSU 34 Clemson 10

this game will be close. fsu may win, but it's going to be close. this fsu hype is ridiculous. every year we hear fsu is back. every year they're not. they have done nothing to deserve this ranking or respect. sure they are pretty good, but if you're basing anything off of what they have done so far this year, they have probably played the weakest schedule in the history of college football. not only have they played 2 division 2 teams, they have have played 2 really bad division 2 teams and wake forest. wake is decent some years, but not this year.
they have done nothing to deserve this ranking or respect. and clemson has?
sorry sang clemson is getting dominated. so much for that 50 ppg offense you hyped.
actually yes, we deserve it more than fsu does. we beat them and won the acc last year. we have most of that team back. we've beat them 6 out of the last 9 and won the acc more than they have recently. the acc is not owned by fsu anymore. no one fears them anymore. i wish espn would just get off their dicks. they are the new notre dame.
ps- we could easily be avging 50 right now. our coach calls off the dogs way earlier than most teams. we could have easily scored more points the last 2 weeks. and we're avg. what 40? as it is. not far off.

39.7* and thats through the weakest part of the schedule.

all down hill from here.
that's where you're wrong. we'll score more against maryland, wake, nc st, or whoever than we did against furman. we won't pull the starters so soon in a conference game. we won't avg. 50 but we'll be over 40.
Thanks Druid! It would be so nice to go down there & get a W. I won't be watching the game tonight, which is a first for me. I'll be too busy watching Pearl Jam. ;D

Jordan Reed (11 for Florida) was the quarterback at New London HS, which is one of my high school's rivals for all the wrong reasons. But anyway, here's the eastern Connecticut kid on the big stage, getting creamed, and getting right back up for more.

Beavers beat another ranked team again. Looks like we're going back up in the polls.
How does a New Englander end up an Oregon State fan? Just curious, congrats on the success. I sure didn't hear about them preseason, but their win over Wisconsin was very impressive. Not as much over UCLA, but wins are wins, especially over a ranked team. Good luck in the Pac, you've definitely got some big national stage games ahead if you can keep winning.

As for Clemson Fsu all I can say is....it's the ACC I'll eat my words if Clemson can beat their in-state rival or FSU can beat theirs. Granted, FSU looks like they should beat Florida. They definitely look solid, I'd love to see them and Bama.

UCLA has some pretty good talent, but they are a young team. They'll do pretty well in the P12 South soon, a year or two I suppose.
As for me, I don't care about UConn, UMass, or Boston College. My school is a joke down in D3. Meanwhile I got a cousin and her mom who both were at OSU - so that's why I picked them. Family connection.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.
