Ya, I guess we should be excited about this getting fired up in a few months...honestly, I have very low expectations going into this year. I keep hearing people talk about UF as a dark horse for the SEC, but I just don't see the talent on the offensive side of the ball to believe it.

IMO, a successful season would be 10 wins, a big bowl game win, and some playmakers emerging on offense. I expect something like 8-5/9-4 with a lot of the losses being close. Here is how I see the schedule breaking down:

Bowling Green - W
@ TAMU - L
@ UT - Toss Up
UK - W
Open
LSU - L
@ Vandy - W
USC - L
UGA - Toss up
Mizzou - Toss up
Louisiana - W
Jacksonville State - W
@ FSU - L

That's 5 wins, 4 losses, and 3 toss ups. Yes, I expect us to lose at TAMU to start the SEC schedule. Just going to be another rough year imo...

I'm thinking 9-4 with losses to LSU,USC, UGA, &FSU. Probably. 2nd or 3rd in the east. Looking like a Cap 1 or outback bowl type of season. But that's be a major improvement from year 1 in the muschamp era.

I've watched 2 years of pure crap from Florida and I really believe this is the year we step up....

Our defense will/should be top 5-10 again and who ever wins the Qb battle is a upgrade from Brantley. Will also be improved on the O-line and are looking to be more of a downhill running game with Gillislee an company. Our Wr's are a mystery but always have been but Debose should be a go to guy.

I know it's all talk but I really think we will surprise some people and will knockoff someone a team that nobody gives us a chance to win. We were so close last year to beating USC, UGA, and FSU and it's been forever since we have actually beatin a top #25 team it will happen this year.

Go Gators!

Our passing game is going to be terrible and gillislee won't be able to run for much against the tough SEC defenses. 6-8 wins. I posted my predictions for the whole year in my latest blog on OS. Check it out.

I come in peace.......but I was just told that Driskel is out for a non-throwing shoulder fractured scapula. Tough break for him

Non throwing ? He better suck it up and get in the game if he wants us to win some games this year.

Brissett had a better spring anyways. He was the favorite to get the job.
