How good is UF's defense?

Crocs had 7 players out vs LSU...don’t know if all of them were starters and/or who will be back this week. We do know Banks is out. They don’t have to put out an injury report tomorrow as this is a non-conf game.

I don't see Sapp on that chart. Where did you get it from?
 
Miami has the advantage at OL and DL. The only weakness I've seen with Miami is they've given up some shot plays by the DB's. I'm sure Heatherman is on it to clean those up, but Lagway has hit some of those. I don't think he can reliably move the offense down the field if they force him to be patient.

I'm not really looking forward to us running condensed sets and spamming A/B gap runs against UF on 1st downs. That'd be a recipe to kill drives.

We gotta come out passing and spread out. And we have to utilitize play action - we did a good job running enough PA against USF imo. We did horrible in that regard against ND.

Also just logically their offense is the big question as they rely on big plays out of lagway, and we've seen the more opporunities we give him, the more he is going to force mistakes. The surest way to beat UF is to try to make this a high scoring race. Their offense won't be able to keep up at all imo. Give them more opportunities on offense and they WILL turn it over and get a lot of penalties. If you try to reduce total posessions, you work into what little strength they have as a team. And if they do successfully hit one or two big plays it can be the difference in the game. But if you make them NEED to hit 5+ or just sustain a lot of drives, they simply can't.

We threw the ball 20 times in the first half against ND. The problem was, it was only 10 in the 2nd half.

Agree with your post though. I’ve said it all week, get to 30 on these dudes and see if their offense can keep up. My money is on they can’t.

All indications are he is out. Probably decided that his draft status is more important than playing with a bad foot during a lost season.

He’s out. Multiple weeks. And as you said, if they’re 2-5, he’s probably just shutting it down. But he was on crutches in a boot Saturday night after hurting the same foot that kept him out the first 2 games. He’s not playing Saturday.
