I hope not. They will if Milton and our defense are terrible, both of which are possible. I'm cautiously optimistic Joe is not terrible after the Clemson game, but I believe it would be unwise to not consider the possibility that he absolutely stinks it up again. If we are that version of the team Saban will put 70 on us.
I do not think either is possible. I think it is possible we might struggle some, but I highly doubt we will be terrible at anything, going forward. I have no doubt Saban will try. I don't think he will succeed. I hope we keep pissing his dumbass off.
 
There is a lot of evidence that FDR and the U.S. military leaders antagonized Japan and goaded them into attacking prior tk Pearl Harbor. Not saying that we wanted Pearl Harbor to happen but that we were hoping for some sort of Japanese action that would result in U.S. citizens supporting entering the war.

Definitely would not be the first or last time that politicians and military brass have looked for ways to drum up support for a military campaign.
I personally think that's a load of crap.
 
Real Football?

What is it?

There may be some “old school” thinkers who thing real football is running the ball on offense and stopping the run on defense. It’s old school and for someone that’s old school I think it’s fair for them to see that as “Real Football”. They’re allowed to have their own vision. jmo.

Last year there were only 3 SEC teams that managed to score at least one rushing TD in every game on their schedule, Tennessee, Georgia, and LSU.

Mark Stoops, widely acclaimed as a self-acknowledged devotee of “Real Football”, was unable to score a rushing TD in 7, that’s Seven with a Capital 7, SEVEN, of his games on the year. smh. lol. There just seems to be something really wrong about that if someone is committed to "Real Football". If you're going to talk the talk you'd need to walk the walk. jmo.

I mean, it’s worse than that for Stoops. Mississippi State under Coach Leach (may he rest in peace) never ran the football at all and The Pirate still had 12 rushing TDs on the year. We had 40. Stoops had 9. 9? Yeah, 9, little “n”-ine. smh. lol. You’ve got to me kidding me. Nope. 9. lmao.

Stopping the run is the other half of the equation and Georgia was best in the conference at that, followed by Tennessee. Wait. Tennessee had the second best run defense in the SEC last year? Wow.

Say what you like but Tennessee appears to be really good at this “Real Football” thing. jmo.

So Florida's schedule

at Utah
McNeese State
Tennessee
Charlotte
at Kentucky
Vandy
at South Carolina
BYE
Georgia
Arkansas
at LSU
at Missouri
FSU

Bold are the likely wins...I think at Utah to open is a loss. Don't think they can beat Kentucky or South Carolina on the road and if they're already sitting at 4 losses going into Georgia I expect they'll be well into laydown mode. Could sneak a late season win in over Missouri or FSU though. Arkansas I think should beat them with them returning KJ
Looks like they have bye weeks or easy games after each tough game.
 
On May 17, 1939

The 1st Televised Sporting Event

NBC broadcast a baseball game between Princeton and Columbia Universities from Columbia’s Baker Field. Two RCA Iconoscope cameras covered the event that was carried on NBC’s experimental station W2XBS in New York. Princeton beat Colombia 2 -1.

I think the 5.5 over/under line was set well. I could see them winning perhaps 5 or 6 games - the 3 that you highlighted plus a combination of potential wins against the following opponents: Kentucky (doubtful, but possible), South Carolina (doubtful, but possible), Arkansas and Missouri.
