Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Orange.]

....I’m reading a lot of our recruits are going to Colorado....

Nah. You must be honed in on some trolls.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Is that a spicy, mild or original Brats.....?????

Ask the gators after the game

 

[therickbol]

I just can’t imagine that offense putting up 30 points on this defense.this is the first time in a long time I’m confident in something going into Gainesville …our defense is built upon stopping the run and seems like that’s all Florida has… I do expect Billy to pull every trick out of his bag though

Every trick....so there are even more types of bubble screens that be hasn't shown yet. Clinic will be in session!

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I put a hundred on Tennessee already I know small bet but better safe than sorry....

Jeez...I hope you win

 

[mrMet]

OH NO THE SKY IS FALLING

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Would have about 5-7 more if the AP refs weren't absolute garbage.

 

[VolsnCards5]

I don't think Heup or his team believe in the weight of "history." Unless, of course, the media and fans can persuade them of it.

GBO! Beat down of the gayts incoming!

I don’t think they do either. But Florida and its fans certainly do.

So with Campbell being able to come back next year, our OL is pretty much figured out next year:

LT: Campbell
LG: Karic
C: Davis (should be able to come back with his covid year)
G: Nichols
RT: Mincey

I think it is highly unlikely Davis starts at Center next season. And it might be even more unlikely that Nichols ever starts a game here. I hate saying that. He is a mountain. But he does not have any dog in him. Practices and plays with no fight or toughness.

Some good news this fine Tuesday evening

Good for him.

I hope he never uses it.

 

[85SugarVol]

Defense must lead the way on Saturday.

I’m feeling a 90’s era Tennessee vs Florida paradigm at play.
Stout Defense and power Rushing attack might be the key.

We don’t have to hang fiddy. Make them beat us.

 

[jave36]

I probably do...

Maybe every week, probably not even that though.

 

[Fingers]

 

[Orange.]

I don’t think they do either. But Florida and its fans certainly do.

LSU thought they were unbeatable in Tiger Stadium too.

We'll just have to keep beating the Gayts until they internalize the lesson. Hopefully a fast start Saturday puts them in a fretful state of mind for the remainder of the beatdown!

[franklinpence]

The “suspect is custody”, huh? With a name like that, his parents didn’t leave him much of a choice but to embrace his life as Florida Man.

 

[MockingVol]

Might as well go ahead and put money on the over.

I had a dream last night that with a little over seven minutes to be played, our Vols were on top 42-17.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Was just talking to my mom about it this morning. Was quoting Tacitus as she drifted off in the passenger seat.

I hope we apply the "Carthaginian Solution" to the Gators...if we do, I vote we give Heupel the name he deserves...Joshicus Crushicass Gatoricanus

September 13

Defy Superstition Day.

National Defy Superstition Day is celebrated on September 13. The 13th of the month is a significant number, and it’s the day when many people are defying superstitions around the world. The etymology of ‘superstition’ is from the Latin word ‘superstitio,’ which means “to stand over or above.” It describes the belief in or practice of events or processes that are not explained by science or reason.


What are some of you morans biggest superstitions???

I have many..........
* Always use the same ball marker
* New dip after every Bogey

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

They need to watch Uga and Pitt film from last year. Those two teams had the best gameplan and both were almost identical. Uga just has far more talent. Our run game is too good this year to have 2 deep safeties and drop 6 in coverage like AP kept doing

I don't know if UFs front 6-7 is fast and good enough to do what UGA and Pitt did...people don't understand that Pitt had some players up front.

And even in those games there were open opportunities, especially against Pitt...if Hendon had been on that day we would have scored 2-3 more TDs and OT would have never happened.

I don't think Heup or his team believe in the weight of "history." Unless, of course, the media and fans can persuade them of it.

i don’t believe in that history either…. we beat them in 1990, 92,98,2001,2003,2004…. They were a slightly better team than us and beat us a few more times than we beat them…. they started a run when phil got lazy and declined then it started our era of being coached by morons….If Heup had been coach at UT after Urban left Florida…. we would be on huge run ourselves… Let’s go WTFA!!!

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Some surface level stats here. Still too early in the year to draw too much from these though.

View attachment 578824

Their defensive performance should be discounted just as much as ours since they played two back up QB's at Utah and they had a very vanilla gameplan. Utah didn't try anything dynamic at all when they got the lead. Just tried to run the clock out the entire second half.

 

[mrmax86]

Wow

 

[UTSuave’]

Every trick....so there are even more types of bubble screens that be hasn't shown yet. Clinic will be in session!

I meant that in a sense of him doing something we don’t expect…didn’t he do like a fake field goal or something on us last year because they we’re losing?

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

I don't know if UFs front 6-7 is fast and good enough to do what UGA and Pitt did...people don't understand that Pitt had some players up front.

And Cedric Tillman had some really big drops despite his gaudy stats.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I just told a buddy 450 passing 80 rushing with 6 total tds.

What is soooo frustrating is that we KNOW that Joe has this kind if game in him..if he could just find it.

I kinda hope Florida knocks the piss out of him on a keeper and jars his talent loose.
