FAU is gonna be tough this year, and could keep that game at Texas within 10. The Horns struggled vs Arky State lastyear. I can't see Auburn laying 25 against anybody. Boston College looks a little low. The rest look pretty close.

I really think Temple will handle Army the more I look at it. Kinda like Wisconsin as well. Akron is gonna be very weak. I actually like Auburn at 25, but ULM's run game could milk enough clock to keep it within that number.

Hawaii brings a seasoned defense and special teams.
Will Hawaii's offense deliver?
Hmmm....
I am tempted here.
If Graunke is the starter...I'm bettin' on Hawaii.
If Florida averages 45pts....and Hawaii stopped Georgia's O at 34...if you deduct the two field goals of 52yds and 45yds...that means the SEC superdog only scored 4 TD's against pretty much the same defense for Hawaii.
The supposedly dominating Georgia Bulldogs also struck out on ALL 4th down attempts.

Georgia is an inside the tackles running team, Florida spreads you out and dominates you with their speed - Florida wins this game, and will score 50/55+, while Hawaii gets stuck around 27/28.

Uh, yeah... ask Florida about Georgia's "inside the tackles" running team... especially how it related to the 84 and 53 yard TD passes against them.
And ask Auburn about that one-dimensional offense that scored on a 58-yard pass and a 13-yard pass in addition to 5 scoring drives of over 5 plays.
Or how about Alabama? I'm sure they'd love to recall Georgia's "run only" offense that scored on a 25 yard pass on the first play of OT to win the game.
And don't forget to ask Hawai'i about... ok, well, yeah, Georgia ran it all over Hawai'i. There's no need to throw it, though, if they can't stop you from running up the middle with 10 guys in the box.
You should really try to speak intelligently about teams when you're trying to compare them.
With all of that said, I think the key to the UF/UH game will be 'Bows ability to light up the Gaytor secondary. Florida's going to score... the question is how well UH will be able to hang with them. Do they have the tools to? Sure... but they had the tools to hang with Georgia, too. And that didn't work out too well for them. If they keep their heads on when things don't bounce their way, and they don't get too intimidated by the atmosphere in the Swamp, and they have a couple of bounces and calls go their way in key situations... they definitely could make the game way more interesting than Florida fans would like.

Your logic is a trap.
You don't think Hawaii's defense hasn't seen a spread before?
I don't doubt that Florida is likely to win, and I think 27pts is a good spread. I predicted as much a month ago.
I don't think you understand this matchup.
Hawaii's defense did well against Georgia, and it's going to be better this season.

UH might have seen the spread before, but not with the speed and talent Florida is going to throw at them. UH lost 6 starters on defense (included DE Veikune as starter) and come in Gainsville with 2 new DB's. Thats not a good matchup when you have the speed of Harvin, Murphy, Rainey, and the top JUCO WR in Moore. HC Meyer knows how to run the score up and will make an early statement. UF will score 55+ points.

Looks like you were close here... Opening number printed was Ole Miss -10 as hard as that is for me to believe
I was surprised it came out that high as well. Made me feel a little less stupid for puttin up the the number though. I could see that one being bet down 1-2 points.

Ha, way to bring up 5 TD's on a team which probably scored oh just about 75 TD's this year, good sample size you clown. You wouldnt no Knowsean Marino or t. Brown(thank god hes gone) if they walked right by u -- Stafford and Massequa (if u even no who they are, are good) but go look up the ages of their O-line, then get back to me on how Georias runnin game is gonna be. And no, I don't think Hawaii has seen speed, certainly not speed like Florida, no one has. This game wont be close. Florida returns most of their valuables and Hawaii loses their top 2. Ura joke.

You think Hawaii has the tools to keep up with Florida? Do you realize UH lost their top 4 WR's? Phil Steele has UH WR's as 7th best in the WAC!!! RB's are 6th!!! No way can they keep up with Tebow, Harvin, and Co. Also, dont underestimate the humidity in Gainesville in August especially when UF is bigger, stronger, faster, and a ton more in depth. 10 hour flight = JET LAG!!! One last thing, I know it was June Jones who said Tebow is a system QB and couldnt play in Hawaii's offense, but Urban Meyer knows where that comment came from and he will absolutely run it up.

Hawai'i will most likely arrive a week in advance (when they played Alabama in 06, they arrived early, practiced at GaTech, then took the relatively short bus trip to Tuscaloosa), so jet lag will be no factor.
And humidity? After the many rainstorms on the islands, it's humid, so I don't think it will shock the Hawai'i players. As for the heat, it can get very oppressive (why else does Hawai'i seem to play night games at home)? So I don't think the weather will give Florida that much of an advantage.
I said it in the thread with the opening week lines that I think the Florida team over is the "safe" bet. Actually, maybe the first half team over. For the game it might be Florida O/U 45 and 23 at the half. Hawai'i will either put up 30+ or hardly anything, so +27 is too uncertain for me.
