I understand why people might think this due to the departure of Chump/Fowler etc but Florida's defense is not going to be slaw this year. They return a ton of guys particularly in the secondary and Geoff Collins is a solid DC. They'll be strong again and our offense is going to have to rise to the occasion in a way they didn't last season if we want to pull off the dub.

I do think we have a pronounced edge on them offensively, IF everyone is healthy.

Tennessee

B+ offense
B+/A- defense

Florida

C- offense
A/A+ defense

They will have a defensive edge but we're a more well-rounded team. I think we can keep drives moving much better than they can, and that will make our defense hold up better in the 4th quarter.

Ok
You started something here!
Every day you've got to say a player's name and that their jersey number equals the number of remaining days. . Can you do it? Here's your challenge. Step up! :salute:

Didn't they do that last year on utk.com?

Love all this talk about beating FL., especially if it happens at the swamp this year. Absolutely hate the gators. Definitely taking one game at a time this year. Because the biggest question mark will be DeBord's first true test play calling against OK. If he does well, not look predictable and we win, even if it's a close game. Then my confidence goes way up to beat the gators.

secondary looks nice. front 7 not so much. lots of youth in the middle and mediocre linebackers. Hell their own mods just wrote an article saying if morrison is limited then the linbacker corp is really thin and average. Holley and those guys are talented but they havent played a snap.

Where is this defensive edge? They are a "little" better on the backend( like the young CBs at Florida a little more than our own right now). Neal is a playmaker at safety. But we've got good safeties and great depth there. LBs is an even playing field. We have the better D-line. And the best defensive player in college football.

Also HG Hurd ran pretty good versus Mizzou but coaches were scared to ride him.

I think we will ride him a little more this year. I'm guessing the coaches were scared of doing that last year and getting him hurt with nothing behind him. Hopefully, we have the OC that will ride him, if he's wearing a defense down as well.

Cool story bro.

I'm in Knoxville for my best friends wedding. The wedding party is staying at Crowne Plaza. Long story short, on my way down to head to the chapel, the elevator opened and guess who was in there?

JON GRUDEN.

In awe of me riding the elevator 5 floors with him, I never asked for a picture or autograph. Bummer.

Hopefully we won't need to because Kamara is that good.

I don't like you.

Wife and I spent our honeymoon in St. Thomas and St. Johns.

If you're heading that way, check out Cinnamon Bay on St. Johns asap. Heaven on earth and not as much a tourist spot as Megan's Bay is on St. Thomas.

Travel safe...and I don't like you.
