I think we're going to kick their teeth in. I used to think lowering my expectations would somehow make losing not as painful, but experience has taught me that it doesn't. I get angry either way, so I may as well remain positive and enjoy myself for a while instead of slowly stewing in impending doom. We all know the concerns, but at a certain point you have to choose who you want to be. Tigger or Eeyore.

UT 38
UF 21

That's a 17 pt. win. The Vols storm back from 21-17 down in the first half. Hurd, Dobbs and Kamara all have rushing TDs. Byrd and Jennings get into the end-zone as wall. Medley gets one from 39. Lots of wailing and gnashing of teeth when the Vols fall behind. VN erupts torching DeBord. After the game in retrospect though many will not let it go, the cognoscenti see that DeBord has played it brilliantly. Vol D pitches a shut out after the half-time break.

Dobbs, Vickers, McKenzie each said OT Chance Hall (knee) looked good in practice Monday.Hall hasn't played a snap yet this season.

Not directed at you, but What do you expect them to say? "Yeah he looked pretty banged up and it doesn't look like he can help us this weekend"

Is Franks a threat to run? If so think we see a two quarterback system this week. Why else close practice?

Everything I have read and from speaking with a Gator friend, Trask would likely see the field before Franks.

Sounds as if Trask is an interesting story/path to UF. Some of the Gator posters know better, but apparently he did not even start on his high school team due to playing behind a top DT-QB. Rumors are he looks a lot better in practice than Franks.

I think the deeper question is whether the "Free Trask" threads have begun to show up on the Florida message boards.

Man do we need a quick start in this game. It's one thing to fall behind against a team like Va Tech or Georgia last year, but this Florida team is praying that we have to resort to throwing our way out of a hole.

If either team can get a big early lead, it's going to be extremely challenging to come back from considering the limited passing attacks on both sides. I think both teams will want to come out and run-run-RUN to keep their defense fresh and minimize the effect that these pass rushers for both teams can make. Here's to hoping the Vols come out ready to dominate from the start! GBO!

We kinda threw a pick for them to get down there. And gave up stops with flags on 3rd and 4th down.

Virginia Tech has a better offense than Florida and they weren't getting first downs after the first quarter. It wasn't all fumbles they were getting shut down through all of the extra.

Versus Ohio team was drained due to injuries to top players and we ran a total of about 4-5 defenses. Very very bland overall. And that Ohio WR is better than Callaway too. Go watch that 6'3 BIG receiver. He's much better than Callaway as a receiver. IMO

I wanna believe again...just can't do it.

They will find a way to isolate BPowell on Kelly and the other linebackers and he will go for 90+ receiving yards and maybe another 50+ on gadget plays.

I just hope we see Dobbs on the move with More moving the pocket on some roll outs with a flat/corner/drag read or take off with the rock

Hopefully on offense we slow it down a little bit and let the defense stay off the field for more than 1:45 seconds.
I get hurry up to the line of scrimmage but the defense is playing way too much. Got to help them out a little bit .

I got Florida winning simply bc the offensive staff doesn't let our guys play and never put them in position to make the most of their abilities.

I got Shoop winning it for us. And Abernathy has been the man killing slot WRs lately so I doubt the Powell matchup happens. I think our D-line will be too much for the Gators personally. Appleby is also crazy with the football. He will stare a WR down to the ground.

Taking off the orange-colored glasses, I see that UT's defense is decimated by key injuries, our OL is horrendous, and we're facing a good UF defense.

Couple that with the fact that, over the last 11 years, UT has found a way to lose to some of the worst UF teams I've seen in my lifetime, and I don't see how anyone can like our chances.

Yes, UF's starting QB is out on Saturday, but how many times have we seen backup QBs have career days against UT? I still have nightmares of Rohan Davey in the 2001 SECCG.

Can UT win on Saturday? Absolutely. But I'm concerned that this team (and staff) hasn't shown the mental fortitude that's needed to overcome adversity.

UF 27 - 13

If Dooley says it, then I think that we should all feel good about the opposite happening. GBO!!

Yeah it will. If he lines up trips, motions out the backfield. There are a plethora of ways to create mismatches, WE JUST DONT DO IT 😂 SMH

My guess is that if he was not moving around well or there were issues, then they would not have said anything.
