Looks like we are not the only SEC East team w/ new quarterback and OL depth concerns...

Per ESPN Chris Low..

Also, the fourth-ranked Gators will be without starting left tackle Xavier Nixon and backup Matt Patchan for its opener.

Meyer ruled out both players Thursday, saying he's unsure when they will return. Nixon had arthroscopic surgery on his right knee Tuesday. Patchan is recovering from a broken right wrist. He had a pin inserted in his wrist, which has been in a cast since early this month.

It's unclear how Florida will shuffle its line to fill the void against Miami (Ohio) on Sept. 4. Right tackle Marcus Gilbert moved to the left side earlier this week, and Pouncey switched to right tackle. But Meyer says he expects Pouncey to stay at center.

Yeah, but they can backfill with tons of talent waiting in the wings. If we were at that point, we would backfill with an open cattle call.

Florida's depth concerns are no where near our's.

Florida is loaded. There is no denying it, but they are not going to get the kind of offensive production their fans expect this year. I personally think preseason ranking is a little high.

They will look a lot like they did in 05 and 06 with Chris Leak under center. Won't be real pretty but will be enough to win.

Florida had 18 ESPN top 150 players from last year alone. The only way they compare to us is inexperience, and those inexperienced players have a TON of talent. God it makes me wanna puke to say good things about the Gators!!!

LOVE that avatar.

I would strongly consider punching my 90 year-old grandmother in the face for a night with Jamie Eason.

Yeah, I could see it going down something like this:

Me: Granny, I have a problem.

Granny: Well come one over here and tell yo granny all about it....you know I always have time for you baby.

Me: There's this woman, a fitness model named Jamie and I have a chance to....

Granny (interrupting): Jamie EASON? That cute little workout gal? Your father tried to punch me in the face to get with that.

Me: Granny, what's that on the ceiling?

(Granny looks up, followed by a wicked right cross by LW)

Later that evening I gave Jamie Eason three minutes and 46 seconds she'll never forget.

Easy, slugger.

Chris has a ring and many Gator wins.

John just put the clipboard down.

The offense is different and MAY be better. We'll see.
