Welcome back
@cover2 and glad to hear your feeling better. And thank God you still have your looks!
For a guy who didn’t actually “see” game, but only went on what heard, I’d say you still did a nice job of assessing the Gators performance.
While we learned a lot about this team last week, I believe it will be this coming week where we really know what we have. Like C2, yesterdays performance did not surprise me very much - though like errbody else I was irritated and disappointed - after what I read about the bad week of practice. (In fact, while I had no doubt about a victory, I felt certain we would not cover and my picks this week reflected that.)
Next Saturday will tell us several things:
1) Can we bounce back form a week of bad practices and a lackluster performance in a game?
2) Have we learned anything about going into a hostile environment and not being affected by it?
3) Leary, though not particularly mobile, is probably the best QB our D has faced. Are we for real on that side of the ball or is our current defensive ranking built on weak offensive opponents?
4) Can our offense move the ball against a stacked box and a D daring us to beat them with downfield passing? (Kentucky would be foolish to try anything different.)
5) Is CBN a good enough HC to use last night as an object lesson and successfully motivate the team into understanding what it takes to win consistently at this level?
While I’m sure many here will already “know” the answers to these questions, I look forward to seeing for myself. (And glad I don’t have to stream the damn game and can watch it on a normal channel like God intended!)
