Is UT Gonna Get Good Football Recruits?

I do not have the time to study this but I am curious to know about the overall decline of offensive production in the conference. It seems like most teams are putting up less points, probably because the defensive play has improved in response to excessive running up of the score so often in teh 1990s.

Well, I figured I'd at least try and start this any maybe someone else can take the ball and run with it. This is the team points per game for the Gators going back 10 years. I did not segregate defensive and special teams scoring.

1996 46.6
1997 37.7
1998 31.7
1999 ???
2000 37.3
2001 43.8
2002 33.6
2003 30.0
2004 31.8
2005 28.6

Looking at this I would say the trend has been pretty much downward for scoring at UF over the past decade.
