We win out Florida will need to lose 2.

At Bama
AT LSu
Georgia

I hate to say these three teams need to play their asses off. I predict if they lose to bama they will lose one of two against Georgia or LSU.

I think Florida will rock LSU. The Tigers have shown inability to stop the pass, all Florida has to do is protect Leak long enough to put points on the board. Bada bing bada boom, Florida takes LSU. Bama and UGA have decent shots though.

i think lsu beats florida. lsu just needs to concentrate for 60 minutes. if the offesne for lsu is good, they win.

Uf weakness is the d-line. We could have hammered them had we chose to do so on the run. I like LSU's backs deep and telennted they could exploit that very easily.

I only see us losing against Bama, if any...and I definitely don't see UT winning out the rest of the year vs. the SEC. I'm not underestimating LSU or GA but I think we definitely have a better team than both, its just whether we actually execute and stay composed on the road.

Got to agree. If Chris Leak gets going, he'll get 400 yards.

yeah i agree with the passing yardage.


but if u think about it, there has only been one sec team (excluding vandy) that has been consistent. and it isnt ga florida or lsu. it is bama.

they are good and they will likely win the west.

florida and lsu both are not ready this year. it will be bama vs. ut in the sec championship game. hopefully bama will be trying to get revenge on us.

Let's not drink the Bama Kool Aid just yet. Southern Miss gave them fits and one of their TDs came on a hail mary. Arkansas gave them fits . . . and that's the same team that lost to Vandy and got 70 hung on them the week before against USC. Bama is improved, but I think they are very beatable by any of those teams.

does UF really have to lose two? what if georgia beats them and we beat georgia? it's happened before.

Yep, because if UF only loses 1 in the SEC, and UT also ends up only losing 1, then both teams will be tied, and the first tiebreakers would be head to head record (which UF wins obviously). I sure don't want this season to turn out to be a replay of 2003...

OandB, ekterry has a point. If UT wins out, UF loses to UGA, and all three teams finish with one loss each, it would be a three-way tie, and head-to-head would not break it. I forgot about that scenario.

What's the tiebreaker? I can't remember. . . .would it then go to non-conference record?

I agree, I think Bama is very, very beatable. They have struggled against some very suspect-at-best teams. I think FL walks over them.

I just hope we do too! (Ihate living down here when we don't...) :yuck:

UF plays Bama, MSU, LSU, UGA, Vandy, and S. Carolina before playing Florida St. If UT, UF, and UGA finish in a three-way tie at 7-1 in the league by beating each other, then it will come down to the BCS, which I think would favor UT, because the lone loss would have been back in September. So, the highest BCS-rated team would go to Atlanta, unless the second-highest BCS-rated team is within five spots or fewer of the top team. Then, the head-to-head winner of those two teams would go. I got that from secsports.com. So, if UF loses twice between now and FSU, and we're in first, we'll want UF to beat FSU to help our strength of schedule. But, if UT, UF, and UGA are 7-1 in the SEC when UF plays FSU, we'll want FSU to win to hurt UF's BCS ranking. OK, I think I understand it all now. :fool:

Wasn't the tiebreaker a vote from all the coaches in the SEC or something?? Maybe not, but it seems like that was it. Maybe it was the AD's. I'm not sure making this post worthless. :dunno:

They have to lose 2 unless we beat Georgia and Georgia beats Florida and we all end up in a 3 way tie like we did in 2003.

See my above post. That was on secsports.com. No offense intended, but think about it guys. If UT, UF, and UGA are all 7-1, with UF beating UT, UT beating UGA, and UGA beating UF, then the fact that we lost at the Swamp won't be the only thing that matters.

In 2003 when UGA, UT, and UF were all tied, the tiebreaker was supposed to be some sort of vote from either SEC board members or the coaches, I cant remember. But to make it less controversial they changed it to be whoever had the best BCS standing would win it. UGA obviously won it at that time being the highest of all 3. I really hope that doesnt happen again. If UT beats UGA and wins out, and UGA beats us, then that scenario will happen again. So technically UT doesnt have to hope for us to lose 2, just 1 loss to UGA, and of course UT winning out.

As for the coaches voting to break three-way ties, I think they did that to choose the Sugar Bowl rep back when it was a 10-team league.

OK, so step one is we need to win out. We don't do that, none of this matters. Step two, except for 10/8, go 'dawgs!

If we get lucky either 'bama or LSU will step up and beat the gators. Either can do it if they play smash mouth football and keep the gators offense off the field. I don't see LSU losing 2 big games at home this year.

With a three-way tie, the division would be decided with these games...UT-ND, UF-FSU, and UGA-GT. Strength of schedule would favor UT and UF. With UT's loss coming in September, I think we'd finish the highest. But, none of this matters, because UF just about never loses to UGA. We need Bama and LSU to beat UF. Or maybe that guy in South Carolina could figure out a way to beat UF. What's his name? :lol: That would be just dandy, then we'd have to listen to him brag about deciding the race. What's his name? :lol:
