Bama vs Florida

Florida will use the triple option to confuse the defense and Tebows ability to throw on the run or keep it and get a few yards is gonna be nightmare for Bama very similar to the Auburn game. Auburn didn't keep the peddle down but don't worry Urban Meyer will.

That UF defensive line is even better than Auburn's so I don't see Ingram being effective. It is gonna be a 10-14 point win AT LEAST by Florida!!

This game won't be as good as everyone's expecting. Big matchups rarely live up to the hype.

I'll be takiing Florida here. They win 23-10.

Whats the Florida Lizards gonna do after Tebow leaves on a strecher??????

Count on McClain totaly breaking him in half.....

i bet you stay up at night praying for that to happen, right delo?

Loser.

bama now a 6 point dog across the boards.

which way to you guys see the spread moving?

Florida's way...BAMA sucks and is OVERRATED

so I should jump on it now?

i hope it ends in a 2-2 tie

i can only see the line moving closer and closer to a touchdown... once it hits seven it may stand, but who knows? florida is going to get pounded by sharps and the public alike, i would think. it dropped down to 4.5 late last night but now its 6. i think itll get to 7 and sit...

I don't think the public will be on Florida but wouldn't you want to be on the same side as the sharps.

who knows where this line is headed... its down to 5 in most places again. this game is going to see near national title action one would think... 

and money, yes, i would want to be on the same side as the sharps.

You can be.  How much can you afford to bet?  I'll take Bama +5 for how ever much you can afford to lose.  Send me an e-mail on covers, and I promise you it can be arranged.

jimmy,

you playing the ML as well?

Jimmy's confidence is really freaking me out with my UF pick. You're beyond confident.

Do you have a sports almanac like the one on Back to the Future?

westcoast, i dont want to speak for jimmy, but i think he is a bama fan like myself... i could be wrong. but i think i remember that... if thats indeed the case, he knows this team better than any. good luck with your play westcoast!

I most likely will when I free up some of my bank.  I maxed out on the +5 line, but techically I think I can bet more at a different line (ie. 4.5).  So I may either put more on Bama plus points if the line is not 5, or I will put money on the ML. I'll probably make that decision right before kickoff.

There is a huge mismatch between the offenses in this game and UF's speed everywhere will hurt Bama the entire game. The perimeter running game will be hell for Bama's defense mixed with the shovel and quick passes with Blitze's coming. Much like it did last year

I really don't mean to hijack JBrilman's thread, and I will probably put together one of my own in the next day or two, but Gamehenger is correct.  But I am actually a little more than a Bama fan, I am more of a Bama insider if you will.

For example, this year I posted the day before the South Carolina/Bama game that CB Javier Arenas would not play due to a cracked rib.  Many thought I was crazy, but just before kickoff, it was announced that Javy wouldn't play and that he had a cracked rib.  This was, as it were, top secret info that none of the networks were aware of.  In fact when they announced it right before kickoff, the announcers acted as if it had happened in warmups or something (I played South Carolina BTW).  Basically what I'm telling you is that if I tell you something about Bama's football team, you can pretty much take it to the bank.

I have not had much time to post this year, but the people who have been on this board for a while know who I am.  And the people who know who I am know that I almost never miss a Bama game.  I missed one last year, and one so far this year, but I promise you I won't miss this one.

So I don't get too long winded, as I'm prone to do, I will leave you with this.  Bama's defense is more than confident going into this game - they are supremely confident.  I will also tell you that Bama did a lot of defensive experimentation in the Mississippi State game to see how that offense reacts to certain looks.  Saban has had an entire year to develope a defensive scheme to shut down Tebow and that offense, and that is exactly what will happen on Saturday.

 

Sorry, I see this is Gamehenger's thread.  I thought I was in a different one.

Please dont compare MSU's personnel with Florida's...

IF YOUR NOT A GATOR YOUR GATOR BAIT

GOOOOOOOOOOO  GATORS

jimmy/game,

if AU stopped 22/3, what makes you think UF can't? Or you think Old Greg will win the game?

I did not, nor will I ever, compare Miss. St's personnel to Florida's personnel.  Clearly Florida has elite talent.  You don't accomplish what the Gators have accomplished if you don't.  But they do run the same offensive scheme.

The bottom line is where will Florida exploit Bama's defense?  They can't beat them between the tackles.  They can't beat them on the perimeter (although that's probably their best opportunity), and they certainly won't beat them with their anemic passing game.

Jwheels, you are a Gator fan just as I'm a Bama fan, so I'm sure we will never see eye-to-eye on this game.  But I am very, very confident in saying that Bama's defense will smoother Florida's offense in this game.  The Gators WILL NOT score 20 points in this game.

 

i hope you are right jimmy! you are definitely making me feel better about it...

trackem,

if you noticed on friday, bama never threw the ball down field. i dont know if it was all on mcelroy or mcelwain (OC).  maybe a bit of both... regardless, not stretching aubbies defense in that game allowed for auburn to stack 9 and 10 in the box most of the game.  they also had one of their linebackers spying ingram... but the lack of downfield passing was the main reason for auburn's success in my opinion.  i think you will see bama this saturday air it out. we will leave it all out on the field. i think we will hit a few big passes early and it will open bama's running attack...
