After seeing how overrated Miami is this year....that Bama win doesn't look as impressive anymore. Now I'm not saying that UT is gonna beat UF and I'm not saying that it wasn't impressive that they came back and almost beat Bama....but maybe we should pump the brakes on how good Bama is this year. UF looks completely one dimensional on offense. If our Dline can have some success in stopping the run and force Jones to throw the ball....we have a chance to keep it close.

I kinda hope their other QB is still having issues with his hamstring. That dude is quick as a cat and can make lots of players look bad.

The SEC put out a statement that said it should have been reviewed and stopped when the official waved his arms.

The MSU players never possessed the ball so it actually was live but the ref blew the play dead and it should not have been a TD.

There's a still photo that shows a MSU player, down on one knee and his hand on top of the ball. At that point, it was a dead ball. It was just terrible officiating but what do you expect form our SEC officials :):). Oh, by the way, that play was reviewable but it wasn't reviewed.

Looking at the 2021 SEC defenses after 3 weeks. I used Jeff Sagarin’s ratings for strength of schedule (SOS) because he ranks all 258 teams (FBS+FCS). Tennessee Tech is ranked #238 so that gives us the overall weakest schedule thus far into the season. Florida has either the 2nd best or 3rd best offense in the conference so far, depending on if you’re measuring total yards or yards per play. We’ll likely find out this Saturday if our defense is for real. If it is, we may make a game of it. jmo.

We need our offensive passing game to be clicking this week as that appears to be the weakest link so far in the Florida defense.

ESPN FPI this week has us ranked above Kentucky, Missouri, South Carolina, South Alabama, and Vanderbilt.

The rankings are for the 14 SEC teams.

They defense is playing hard but Furman also shutout TTU and held them to 98 yards passing and 23 yards rushing. We are gonna take our lumps but will get better quickly if the team stays bought in and the fan base just appreciates the effort and give them time to get the system down and bring in some players. We cant put too much pressure on the team for the mess that was left behind by A pitiful coaching staff and players that left. These are the guys that want to be here and we need to realize we Can’t take out 15 years frustration on a player that has been here 8 months.

That’s some good perspective. We feasted on two really bad teams, and gave up a lot of points to an average team. We can hope for good play against UF but I think we all know what’s coming.

Back cleat is on the white line if you zoom in.

You’re right but the rule is trash. The ball can be held over the line with no feet in and it’s a td. He had 2 feet down when he had one foot and his toe down. If his Heel doesn’t touch the ground at all it’s also a touchdown, All the time you see players get one foot down and drag their toe and it’s a catch. Makes no sense.

If our offense requires the QB to throw the ball into the crowd on every deep ball then maybe the offense needs some tweaking.

Our offense is a variation of the veer and shoot and we need to be able to throw verticals and deep outs…i know fans tend to overreact to each individual game and throw….The same thing was done with Bailey…. I don’t care which QB is picked by Heup but if it is Hooker then they will have to try and mask his deficiencies…. It won’t matter though if Milton continues to be inaccurate.

Yeah but I guess they are considering that your “momentum” since he was going backwards out of bounds instead of forward out of bounds. But I agree. I believe as long as your foot was in bounds before the back portion of the cleat touched you should still be good to go.
