Game Thread ***OFFICIAL GAME THREAD: UF vs Utah***

[Gator By Marriage]

Having attended 2 snow games there it's a good thing we are facing them early. The altitude will be a problem as well as the environment. If we can eliminate any early mistakes I think we cank take them there in a close game.

I have a friend who played at UTEP many decades ago when both they and Utah were in the old WAC and he played in games at Utah twice. He says the altitude definitely makes a difference and you suck down a lot of oxygen when you’re on the sidelines.

I wonder if CBN will try and get them there earlier in the week.

So, who’s going to the game? Mrs G and were preparing to go right up until they moved the game to Thursday. Work conflict for me so no trip to SLC.

Taking the family to the game, as long as my guy comes through with tickets. Will be my boys first Gator game.

SLC isn’t quite as high as it is here but when teams like Hawaii and SDSU come play here, they certainly feel the difference.

I hope CBN is smart enough to arrive the weekend end prior and push them hard in practice. Hope he brings the tanks with them as well.

It's almost time for some football! Put me in, coach, I'm ready to run through a wall! Also, fuchs the Utes and that sardonic fan of theirs who came here last year expecting a win in The Swamp and all but ready to rub our noses in it. While it was fun giving them hope at the end and snatching it away like we did, I hope we leave little room for doubt about the outcome of our win this go around. Let's go!

Over/under is 48. Take the under. This will be a defensive slobberknocker and points will be at a premium. Don’t turn the ball over and find somebody to cover that damned TE of theirs no matter who is throwing him the ball.

To be fair, if it’s the same poster I’m thinking about, he took the beat down from us after the game pretty well. With most opposing fans, if they lose we never hear from them again.

Bad call by Utah. 2nd and goal, down by 3. Don't turn the ball over on 2nd/3rd and if no TD, kick the FG for OT.

We got lucky. They outplayed us with, on paper, far less talent.

They have a very well coached and conditioned team.

The poster from Utah was actually reasonable both before and after the game.

It's sad, but my days of talking smack are long over.

Much to your chagrin, our Gators are going to score plenty of points this season.

27-20 Good Guys win.

There has to be a reason to talk it.

At least one of those TEs who killed us last year, won’t do it this year; he’s on the Bills.

So...who else is for sure going?

I think the other is coming off an ACL injury.

That would be a great idea. Game prep the entire week out there. It’s still early in the school year.
