As it should be! Night games between us just don't feel right.

 

[sadgator]

Very on edge about it. Those dudes unfortunately learned how to win at Bristol. They are gonna bring it like they haven't in 11 yrs.

You wouldn't catch sadgator within 500 miles of that place in any direction on Sep. 24.

 

[GordonGecko]

We can win this game.

Amazing that we have a 7 game lead in the series.

Since 1976, UF is 24-6 against the Vols.

Good and Bad in everything I guess.

Prime Time at 3:30 PM, but we'll again have Gary Laurel and Vern Hardy doing the announcing.

TV volume off, >>> WRUF radio with Mic on.

Going to Knoxville has always been one of our favorite road games, win or lose.

Yep. They started the series by winning the first ten games. Imagine the kind of domination that it took to get a 7 game lead in the series.

Dobbs still can't pass. Stop him from running.

 

[MJWilliamson]

Yep. Shut down the Tennessee run game, including and especially Dobbs, and he will make critical errors.

 

[sadgator]

sadgator was at the game in Knoxville in 1992...it sucked...bad.

I was at the 1998 game...it sucked....bad.

 

[MJWilliamson]

Yet we won the SEC East that year and were an pick six away from beating Bama in the first SECCG gasme

That was bad enough watching on TV, could not imagine being there.

 

[Rushie]

Good case study in dominating stats but losing turnover battle badly. Had Jackson scored instead of fumbling at the one, Gators would have won easily.

Got nothing to worry about. You're probably gonna win by 30. We Can't block, can't run, can't pass, and can't tackle. Other than that, we're fine.

 

[ifuaintagatorumustbegatorbait]

I was at the tsunami in 2002 when Rex played out of his mind, it was literally a one man show that day. Those fat toothless hillbillies were in complete shock after the game. One moron smarted off to Mrs. Ifuaint and I thought I would have to fight for her honor. Luckily my buddy threw me in the car before I made a fool of myself seeing that I was wasted and all.

It was so funny because they really thought there was no way they could lose to that years team coached by the Ole Zooker.

Well there's a pessimistic assessment.

 

[GatorGray]

Put 8 in the box and put Tabor, Wilson & Maye 1 on 1 on their receivers. I like the match ups and our chances.

 

[frostd]

Ok guys for those of us who saw Vols almost lose first game and saw nothing of the VT matchup what s the bottom line? Thought they looked very bad first game, did they look that much better second week?

 

[TennesseeGator]

Let Azalone spy Dobbs. Tabor matched up with Josh Malone. Have Maye keep a tight eye on Ethan Wolfe. Also punt away from Sutton as much as possible. Sutton will probably be matched up as much as possible on Callaway but he will get his receptions. Brandon Powell will be the key factor. Don't abandon the run stick with it. Our depth at RB may work to wear out their front 7. It's not impossible to beat them. They will be fired up. Take the momentum and hope to make the crowd a non factor.

 

[TennesseeGator]

Watch a replay. John Capel did not step out of bounds on the kick return to start the 2nd half.

 

[sadgator]

That was bad enough watching on TV, could not imagine being there.

Oh, it rained so hard...and that was in the days where stuff was thrown around after scores...sadgator thinks a monster truck actually landed on his head from the upper deck...to add insult to injury the UT band stopped playing rocky top and played "orange and blue" after one of their last scores. It was a true nightmare.

 

[-MDVOL]

Well there's a pessimistic assessment.

We can punt real good and all of our guys stand at attention for the National Anthem. Band is real good too

 

[Rushie]

Will give the edge to you guys on first point at least. Townsend got zero work against Kentucky. Might get rusty if that keeps up.

We do that...and play good on offense and we win but we will have to get some pressure on Dobbs and contain him.

Starting LT is a Freshman. Center has been trying to ply on a High Ankle Sprain 1st two games.. Starting RT has been out all season with torn Meniscus. Starting MLB and LDE went down with HAS against V/T. Both out this week. Best W/R pulled a hamstring and didn't play last week.

Team hasn't played well. So far. It is what it is.

They looked better once mo got swung around. Tech ran up 200 yards offense in the first quarter+ while holding the vols to 39. The Tech fumble at the 11 yard changed the entire game....strange thing is that when the vols were up 31-17 I believe, tech still had an advantage in yardage...strange game for sure. They will be ready.

 

[frostd]

Thanks

 

[instaGATOR]

Not buying the bs mad-doggie.
IF they were to win, he'll be back here yappin that he was just sandbaggin' as a fan.
And when they lose, he'll be back here claiming that he knew it all along and said so.
This is his new defense against having his 12th consecutive CROW dinner shoved down his toothless throat.

==============

September 13, 2014 Gainesville, FL --- Florida 36-30 (+6) -- close
September 19, 2015 Lexington, KY --- Florida 14-9 (+5) -- closer
September 10, 2016 Gainesville, FL --- Florida 45-7 (+38) -- HAMMERED!

Trending??

October 4, 2014 Knoxville, TN --- Florida 10–9 (+1) -- very close
September 26, 2015 Gainesville, FL --- Florida 28–27 (+1) - very close
September 24, 2016 Knoxville, TN --- Florida ??-?? (+?) -- Hammered?

I'd be real happy with something like 31 - 20. Not a prediction necessarily, just a score that I'd be happy with. But then, I'd also be happy with a 7-6 UF win...

 

[ifuaintagatorumustbegatorbait]

^^^what he said

 

[MJWilliamson]

Any SEC win, by any score, especially when it is a road win, is a good win.

Isn't that he game when Chris Leak was on a visit to UT and decided he wanted to be a Gator?

 

[ifuaintagatorumustbegatorbait]

^^^I don't follow recruiting as much as most, but I think you're right Michi. I think he was all UcheaT before that game.

 

[TennesseeGator]

Isn't that he game when Chris Leak was on a visit to UT and decided he wanted to be a Gator?

I thought it was the game when his big brother CJ was the starter but was pulled the next series after he led them down field for the score. If memory serves me correct, James Banks took over at QB.

Chris, after committing to UF but hadn't yet signed went to a UT bowl game practice to watch. Some defense player threw a fit of his presence at practice was the nail in the coffin.

 

[-MDVOL]

UT couldn't come up with the money Daddy Leak was demanding. No money in Possum hides and 'coon skins anymore.

F-U had no problems selling enuf Gator hides and Python skins to come up with the dough though. Couple of days in the swamp was all it took.

 

[PacoGator19]

The Leak family didn't like the way the older brother (CJ) had been used or treated while at UT. I would say Leak made the right choice. He won a national title at UF.
