Not getting the Florida Fear/Hype going into 2025

It's in Gainesville. We haven't won there since 01. We aren't as good on the road, especially at night.

It doesn't look good.

I voted maybe. Unfortunately, I must admit Billy has prepared his team extremely well vs Tennessee all 3 games he’s played the Vols. He hasn’t done as well vs other schools on their schedule. Heupel on the other hand has had his team prepared better for Alabama than he has Florida.

Not getting this narrative

People are complaining that we're not recruiting well enough, esp after the Ohio State game, but flarada is recruiting at the same level as we are now

He out recruited us in 2024. As it stands right now, we have a slightly better class for 2025. I mean did you watch our game against them last year? We barely won. And sorry but they are trending up. With one of, if not the hardest schedules in the nation last year, they finished on a 4 game winning streak including wins over #9 Ole miss and #22 LSU.

Your narrative that Napier sucks is just false.

Your narrative that Napier sucks is just false.

19-19 overall

Year 1
6-7

Year 2
5-7

Year 3
8-5

People are acting like that clown is Saban 2.0 because he had a 5 loss season instead of a 7 loss season?

Results matter, and the results show that Napier is a terrible coach.

Why do a few of us insist that going on the road is a problem for Heupel?

You win some on the road against good competition, and you lose some. Remember LSU last year? A win. Florida two years ago? A loss. Oklahoma this year? A win. Arkansas? A loss. It happens.

Going on the road in the SEC is just hard.

So stop imagining curses or critical weaknesses or anything like that.

We were 2-3 on the road this season. 1-3 the season before. 3-2 the season before that. Together, 6-8 in true road games over the past three years. Including some mighty good teams in the mix.

That's not horrible, not in the SEC. Not yet championship caliber, but getting there. Bit by bit.

Go Vols!

Say it louder to the ones in the back Hoss

Beat the good teams on the road, and your rivals. 22 UGA. 23 Florida. 23 Alabama. 24 UGA. 24 OSU. All lost on road. No road wins versus good teams or the rivals.

That is 100000 percent a problem winning games on the road that matter. From wherever you are in the room.
