Just had a convo with my UF season ticket holder boss.

He says they win 10 and have by far the best backfield of anyone in the country. All he was talking about was how now they’re all jacked and fast. He’s sipping that blue kool aid

I think our fans are being over zealous about this year when they say we win 8, but there is no comparison with florida fans. Every Florida fan I know thinks they are in the hunt for the SEc title and more this year. It’s unreal.

That, plus non-UT college football fans I know think we are about to get smoked by 21 or more points this weekend. I’m not confident we win but I think it will be a 38-31 type thriller personally. Most folks I talk with think we lose 45-17 or thereabouts.

Fascinating times!

Buddy, please enlighten me on how I haven't been a realist and how I've erred on the side of being negative.

You’ve said we’d be lucky to make 6-6. You’ve said that we don’t stand a chance against WV. You’ve said we have next to no talent on this roster. Do I really need to go on? How come everyone else can see it but you?

Tbh nearly all the "experts" agree with him besides maybe Kirk Herbstreit. We are getting close to the season so a lot of us are ramping up their expectations because we are excited.

Nb4: That's a shocker coming from you negavol catbone

I agree with you , but remember JG is going into his third year at UT... he has now basically completed three yrs of off season work and camp... I hope he continues to improve, but unfortunately I think what we see is what we are going to get for this season and next. The kicker is the whole Butch/bad mojo/team quitting/Oline situation last year that may have masked his real potential. We will see Saturday.

Two completely different coaches if he has a break out year it will be because of this staff,whatever he has learned that has anything to do with butch jones,needs to be trashed because butch made him worse and never managed to make him better

Hit harder than courtney? Sorry that was probably inappropriate. Really just wanted to point out that penn state should never be left out of that statement no matter how much time passes. That was the worst one.

I knew I was missing a couple others. Dunno how I forgot about Penn State. I was more talking about current stuff, but yeah that is definitely one of the biggest to have hit any program.

When we beat WV, handle the two cupcakes, then take care of the Gators at home and we are sitting at 4-0, anybody gonna change their prediction on the year? Those predicting 6-6 think we can squeeze only two more wins the rest of the year?

I'm gonna stick with 6-6 until I actually see us start 4-0. We do that, and I will obviously change my position on the number of games we win this season. But right now I really need to see how both lines hold up. If I have confidence in both OL and DL, that would go a long way in giving me more confidence in how the season goes.

You have to remember. It's safer for the "experts" to predict a bad season than it is for them to predict a good season for an unknown team like UT. If they're right about them being bad the "experts" won't get as much backlash if they were wrong about them being good.

Let’s take a minute and break this one down. Lol.

You’re basically saying, “if we win more games than you thought we would are you going to be surprised that we won more games?”

Lol ....well, yeah.
