    Thoughts on this game from you gentlemen?

    There is a very good chance Florida ends the streak in this game, very limited on offensive line so far and the Gators can't cash in in the red Zone, they have moved the ball fine but they just haven't finished. The defense is still very very good and won the game for them last night. The good thing for UF is that UT's strength is pretty one dimensional running the ball and that matches up well... But UT has more weapons overall

    I like Florida in this one. I'm hoping Vols backers
    bet this down to a " pick ".

    Gators gonna be hard pressed to win this game. Vols had no business losing to Oklahoma.....but since they did, this line opened wrong. Neutral site would mean  Florida -7 (usually geg 3 for hfa, but Knoxville is a huge stadium and fanbase so i give them 4)? No way.....

    This line gives me pause as I thought that Tennessee should be favored by 4. They are light years ahead of Florida on offense. I am going to have to take a close look at this one. GL!

    Dobbs is gonna have to create and hit some throws because our run defense is better than I expected so far, the front 4 is killing people. Bullard has been running right through people up front and put the game away with a sack last night. I think the Vols will have some trouble running it at first, just depends on how much the Gators can do on offense to keep from leaving them on the field all day. Problem for Florida is they have no kicker for a close game

    Tennessee is still young all over the field and on the o line. They will move the pocket or let Dobbs roll out and create. They do have weapons at wide receiver, I disagree with the above post. However, I'm still not sold on Dobbs being a world beater. He's the best option they have had in a couple years. Simply because he can make a play with his legs and extend plays. My main concern is to see how new OC, Debord, handles the offense. They absolutely played not to lose when they jumped out early on OU. Maggit is out for at least 5 more weeks but we have Barnett on the other side. Kirkland Jr will probably start at MLB, which may or may not be a good thing. It's probably a better option than Jumper back there. I do think Tennessee wins here and had they beaten OU, they would be a touchdown favorite. BUT.....they didn't beat OU and still haven't had a signature win since Fulmer. Tread lightly, but I do think Tennessee gets the win here.

    This game will be really close. UF has been improved this year and can win this game. UT's wide outs are not what they have been in the past, but are still solid, if not spectacular. Hurd at running back runs so upright, he looks like he should be easy to take down, but his yardage is proof he isn't. Gators still can't seem to quite decide who their QB is, and frankly both are average. Last year it seemed they were past that, but it no longer looks that way. Line under 3 looks on target to me. A low scoring game that could (and I think will) be decided by a turnover or special teams play.

    I think on a talent level Tennessee, overall, is on par with Florida this year.  But I think with the OU loss they will be the more motivated team, especially at home.  Hard to see Butch allowing them to lose two in a row and UF w/ the new QB showed a lack of firepower offensively against SEC level opposition. I like Tennessee in this spot.  Florida's going to have a good year though (compared to last) and make a bowl.

    Good comments all.

    Tennessee looks like the play here considering Florida's problems with their inexperienced offensive line and QB.

    However, the wild card is how much does Florida improve here in their fourth game - maybe they get it together this week.

    Against Kentucky I had Florida by 4 , a no bet, and they won by 5.

    Here I have Florida by 1 and a no bet.

    A no bet for me.

    I think UK actually played really well on defense the other night and it was one of their biggest games ever so that can't be taken lightly. They played their hearts out on that stage. Florida's offense will improve you just have to see what happens it's a hard game to cap for sure


    Gators front 4 has been absolutely dominant so far, that's for sure.
