I mentioned it a few days ago, we’re going to HAVE to ground and pound until the freshmen WR’s (Eugene, Andy, and/or Aidan) step up and that’s a TALLLL order cause all we have proven is Pretty Ricky.

TE room maybe even a bigger question mark although I like Arliss. The elephant in the room is Murda Mertz.

I tell you what though; it’s that Tennessee game that’s bothering me. IDK what to expect from them either. Havent beaten us in Gainesville since 2003 but you just FEEL like they’re due at SOME point.

Oh yea our ST was HORRENDOUS last year. Lost some games because of that area too

Thats going to have to be your formula pretty much all year. But that OL 👀. Watching Mertz will be interesting

Regarding Tennessee, at least you get Nico very early in the season while he is learning, but I dont give you much of a chance in that one. If you cant run in that game its going to be a long day

4-8.

They’ll be 2-5 going into the bye, 3-4 if they’re lucky and can steal one. Class will fall apart by November.

Billy’s sandbagging because of the Chernobyl level disaster coming this fall, and they don’t realize it (or if they do, they don’t care).

OL has to grow up because like flagator said, they’re going to ground and pound. If the OL can’t block, there’s only so much scheming Napier can do…and if Mertz can’t throw on top of that, you’re going to see something similar to Miami’s 2022 offense…which would equate to something disastrous for them like 4-8.

Defensively I agree they’ll get better, but I don’t see some drastic improvement. Their pass defense was actually ok last season, but 175ypg on the ground was no bueno…and now they’re replacing Gervon Dexter in the interior. It’s going to be the Memphis transfer and my 600lb life Watson up the middle, and let’s be honest…even if Watson is good for 1-2 plays, no human that size is conditioned enough to effectively play for multiple consecutive snaps. They also have a louisville transfer vying for a tackle spot, but he was non-existent last year (two games played). Their DT quality and depth is extremely poor and thin.

One edge is solidified by Umanmielen, the other might be Sapp (showed promise imo). They lost their top two tacklers in the secondary, plus Burney and Miller at LB. Terejada Mitchell the Ohio St transfer is supposed to be their saving grace at LB, but he got benched midway through 2021 when their defense sucked donkey balls and played predominately special teams after that.

Armstrong certainly has his work cut out for him.

LT: Barber
LG: Leonard
C: Eguakan
RG: Mazzccua
LT: George/Goodwin

I think that’s a solid 5. Things get SUPER dicey tho if Mazzcua misses times recovering cause either it’ll be a redshirt (Farmer) or True Freshman (Harris) there.

bruh i agree!! That Arky game after the UGA loss (yea we're losing that) to me can be a "watershed" moment for Billy at UF. If he's able to get us off the mat and pull out that Arky win, the second half of the season can be a positive. We need that Arky and Missouri game cause the FSU and LSU games are going to be tight and we can very well drop both of those.

That Missouri game is going to be tricky too as we have to go there and it'll more than likely be an early afternoon COLD as **** game and you know they've always given us **** since joining the conference.

You can agree all you want. Fact is, you have a crap team and will be fortunate to win 6 games. Your recruiting will suffer and can scoff it off as most obnoxious gaytor fans.

All these free range gator fans think they’re going to ground and pound as a stopgap, and then later in the season, miraculously, everything is going to be OK.

I’ll be so here to watch the meltdown.

Ground and pound is a tough proposition in the SEC when you don’t have the horses up front and they don’t.

This. I don’t understand why their fans have any hope at all.

he actually was very solid in the shotgun and the numbers will back it up. I don't expect him to be All-SEC, just hit the open man (in the short and intermediate throws which is where AR struggled at) and i'm good with that. I'M NOT SAYING HE'S GOING TO GREAT/ELITE....just hit the darn open man

Wait, is this guy suggesting that Wisconsin does not have a run heavy offense? Is he suggesting that Floridas run game should be more effective than wisconsins? Has this guy ever watched college football?
