Thank God we have that schedule before the onslaught of October or a losing season could be possible. That makes the Sept. Tenn. game key to a decent bowl game for UF this year and Tenn will be tougher this year in my opinion than last.
I think that after taking a month off and then having to play your toughest opponents all in a row, crying about having to play a "gauntlet" is lame. Just thought I'd say it.
8) Imagine that we were all going to bet on these games in a tournament. How about if you got to place your money on the first 8 teams in this poll as your teams; while my teams were the LAST 8 teams listed in the poll. Here are your teams: 1. Oklahoma (42) 2. Alabama (13) 3. Oregon (2) 4. LSU (2) 5. Florida State 6. Stanford 7. Boise State 8. Oklahoma State Here are my teams: 18. Notre Dame 19. Auburn 20. Mississippi State 21. Missouri 22. Georgia 23. Florida 24. Texas 25. Penn State So much for the value of preseason polls...
I think Gip's gotta point and it's not lame, but whatever. Dave, I'm not saying YOU won't be good. I like Weis' offense and you have incredible talent. I think the East is awful and there are a few teams (like FSU) that have been riding past history in the polls for a long time now. Like ND in the mid to late 90s, they just aren't very good.
Florida would surprise me this year with 9 or more wins. I hope it can happen but looking at that schedule it will be tough. FSU get's their first test vs. OU so that should be interesting.
