We will whip Pitt by double digits next week. They won't be able to keep up.

Heup has our guys playing fast paced backyard football and having fun. Not playing scared or afraid to make a mistake and get pulled. They put in some serious work this past offseason.

Much more refreshing and fun to watch and they love playing for CJH. This is how you beat Florida. Won't be easy but we will get it done. Even if we got behind, we can score in spurts and come back easily in a flash.

Very good chance UT will be 5-0 and ranked top 10-15 when Bama comes to town.

I just hope UT is 2-0 first……

Florida was underrated by pundits all off season. I have said for a while this was a great opportunity for Florida to pull an upset. Utah's AD scheduling a game AT the Swamp in September when Utah's average monthly relative humidity is 51.4 percent and Florida's is 74.5 was begging for disaster to strike them. If you schedule this game at this time, you have to take it to a neutral site. There's simply no way for a college team to prepare for a game in an environment that different. It's hard enough for teams in the Southeast to deal with the Swamp in September.

With that said, Florida's offense was surprising but their defense did nothing all game long. They were very fortunate that Utah's QB threw that pass because despite everything Utah should've closed it out on them (and going into it I had UF all the way). If we get past Pitt, Florida is going to be a huge test. Both teams have offense but both have serious questions regarding defense.

For reference - Utah was 14th in total offense last year and we were 7th. So the gators are definitely not as bad as we hoped they'd be but our offense should be able to score on them.

Billy gets a top 10 win in his first game. We haven’t had a top 10 win in 20 years.

That’s pretty much how it’s been around here, I think even Vanderbilt has a more recent top 10 win. I’m not sure if the graphic I saw was totally accurate with that but it’s been since like 2006 for us. Hopefully that can change soon
