True, there's no guarantee we won't be 1-3, but if we had been playing this afternoon in Oxford all doubt would be removed.

Ole Miss has histroically played good defense at home. I was impressed by their offense. I knew we would be the guinea pig who had to play UF first and all the other SEC teams will learn off our mistakes. Every week the SEC will get closer to figuring our Tebow's anticks and knock them off sooner or later....Auburn, maybe LSU someone will.

OleMiss should have won that ballgame. They had to punt after a no call rough on the QB. FL kid hit him on the facemask w/ the ref 10 feet away and nothing. I'm touchy about that after last year.

UF is a lot worse than they looked last week against UT. I see UF losing 3 games this year: lsu, south carolina and maybe georgia or fsu.

I think there was quite the difference of playing in Oxford comapred to Florida....home game, recruits there, the pageantry of the Tennessee game, rivals, stoked up for the first SEC game for Tebow....not even compare....if Ole Miss would have been in Gainesville last week and played the geeked up team we did, the score would have been the same for them. Ole Miss doesn't deserve that much credit.

You're right, and I think their minds (the coaches) were more focused on the other games down the road. And weren't doing enough to keep a young team grounded after a huge win.


Can you blame them though? 3 consecutive road games:
LSU
Kentucky
UGA

Kentucky, any other year would be a reprieve, but not this year! You're right.

If anything, Meyer will be glad for a 1) Win and 2) good tapes to study.

I HATE to say it, but he won't study UT's tapes to prepare for those teams, he'll be watching Ole Miss' tapes to see what his team did and did not do successfully.

you are right, there is nothing that challenged them in that game. unless they game-plan on how to score 60, instead of just 59.

Referring to the UT-UF game last week, Florida made alot of big offensive gains down the stretch... many after the game was in the bag. But late in the 3rd quarter, they had only made inside the Vols 20 yard line 3 times. At the same point in the game, the Vols offense had been inside the Florida 20 yard line on 4 separate times. At the end of the game, during the Vols meltdown, the Vols offense never got into scoring position again, while the Gators scored the last 4 times they got the ball.

How come Vol fans still talk trash about a UF team that dominated UT? All I'm hearing is how bad Florida is after a tough 6 point road vicrtory. Everyone knows that SEC teams @ home bring their A-game when facing UF. Everyone wants to knock off the defending national champion.

Ole Miss played one of their best efforts in years, the Gators had 120+ yards in penalties, on the road, and Florida still won. If you think this game means that Florida is overrated, you're on serious drugs.

Ole Miss had a number of big plays. Their TD drive to draw within 3 late was made up of one good running play (with excellent blocking and catching Florida in a poor stuffing defensive scheme), followed by a hail mary that had about a 3 % chance of working.

Ole Miss was liek that all day long -- not so much sustained drives as just the occassional giant play, usually with about 70 yards tacked on by Florida penalties.

The one place I do give Ole Miss credit for is that they played a very attacking defense against Florida and it worked. They blitzed a ton and our O-line did not handle it well at all. I do believe that Florida will learn from that and be in a better position when they go to LSU.

At any rate, just wanted to be clear that the score of that game should not mislead anyone, though as I see we dropped a spot to OU in the rankings, it has already done so.

On the other hand, overhyping UF and Tebow based upon a beatdown of the Vols is an even larger mistake. Unfortunately for you, UF has still beaten 4 pathetic squads and only one of those on the road. Your D is still pathetic and great D is the hallmark of great teams.
