Florida? Really?

Man i‘m not sure about this take at all. Florida has a good OL, a good DL, better WRs this year, a really good RB and a good QB if he’s healthy. And it’s at their place and they will be battle tested in the lead up games. I think it will be a close game that we can very easily lose if our QB doesn’t play better and our RBs continue to go down after first contact. 

Do we really know what Florida is or isn't on the line of scrimmage? I love the sophomore running back he was a load last year. Dike one of the recievers from last year is on a NFL roster and has been solid in his reps. Where I disagree is that Lagway is a good qb, I haven't seen it is the reason. He may end up being really good, but I'm not going to credit that to him just yet. He throws the deep ball really well, but timing and touch isn't a strength foe him as of yet. So for me, I'm not looking at what he could or should be, bc he may never reach that. All I have is what he's shown.

Florida looked much better at home against *checks notes* Long Island than we did on the road against Ohio State, you see.  😉

I think Florida would have been better off this year if they didn’t get all those upsets towards the end of the year. That just gave those teams more reason to want to beat them 😂

Lmao man. Bad take. You’re not understanding what kinda environment the swamp is . Especially when Florida is playing well. If they come into the game undefeated after beating LSU? What arch seen in Columbus will pale in comparison to what he sees in the swamp at night. Take it from somebody who’s been . That place gets ROWDY

That’s a big if about them coming into our game undefeated. They have the hardest schedule in the country until then. It’s not certain that they will come out of next weekend undefeated, much less be undefeated in October. 
 

And if they are undefeated when we play them, they will probably have used up a lot of energy and possibly depth in hard fought games and be due for a loss.

LSU harassed Cade all night, Miami don't have world beaters but they're good enough, Lagway may not even make it to Texas.

Gotta at least split the Miami and LSU games, then pull an upset over Texas or Aggy and run the table from there to have a shot.  Won't happen because they won't beat Georgia and Mississippi is probably a loss too so 8-4 at best.  That's only if Lagway stays healthy.

Who is scoring the touchdowns on this team? Not an overreaction, the dust has settled… just a question

Road game, SEC. Tough game, expect it.

If you're speaking from a Texas POV, I'd say you're going to find out a lot these next three weeks. Sark is going or will want to get Arch good looks of route concepts against live and different coverages. Who and what concepts Arch looks and feels most comfortable throwing will tell who is scoring the TDs.

I am right there with you on florida. Sunbelt Billy will find a way to go 9-4 at best with them.

So we should be worried about Florida because they have talented starters but so do we....I understand being "worried" about them but your team now has experience in a hostile environment against great competition.

I think the boys will be fine, as long as they execute and be more disciplined. Plus if Ohio State was meant to have this great OL, are we saying Florida has a better one? They have better WR's? They might have a better RB, I'll give them that. Do they have superior LB's and DB's?

I'm all for respecting an opponent but this team has already been through a tough road game against a great opponent. If they get rattled on the road against Florida, then they don't deserve to be in the SEC title game or in the playoffs.
