UF - USCe Predictions

[Hurrig8r]

Since this is a prediction thread, Ill give it a shot.
Mertz works his butt off and has a good game.
We turn the ball over a couple of times on fumbles.
Special Teams resembles a skit on Benny Hill Show and cost us some points.
Down late by more than a score, we go into 2 minute offence with 6 minutes to play. However, It resembles an old Big 10 game played on a mud covered field in the driving rain.
Possibly give up a late score when we need a stop, by turnover or just plain will.
We mismanage the clock, run in obvious passing situations and have to waste most of our meaningful time outs on position and lineup issues early in the half, affecting our ability to save time at the end...
Following the Process, I say....

Process (UF)-17
Koks-32

I hope I'm wrong, but I've just been following the "Process" for too long to have much hope!

OK.... I am totally shocked and HAPPY...
Prediction Score... 25%- I'm giving myself points for Mertz works his ass off (16.6%), and 1/2 points for we still wasted time outs on f-ups in the personnel and play calling (8.4%) and sucked ARSE on the rest, much to my pleasure.
So a big fat F.... Ill take that F with a U in front of it...
Great game coach and team. Go Gators!

Gotta give @Ironhead credit about calling USC having 31-42 points. I didn't think they would score that many points, didn't expect the defense to be that hideous.

I didn't expect the offense to be bailing them out or throwing for 320+ but it's good to see it happened since the defense shat the bed today.

They actually threw for 420+.

Even better. And now we know mertz can make all those throws and there are some plays in the book that call for them. Freaking use them!!!!!

Mertz isn't very accurate on deep throws, but just attempting them opens up the offense.

And freaking Pearsall should be getting 15-20 targets EVERY GAME. The guy is an NFL receiver.

Other receivers are stepping up which is going to create matchup problems defending us. If our OL can protect Mertz and open a few holes for our two outstanding RBs, this offense can put up some points.
Said it before…we grew up some today and that’s the what we’ve been asking for…growth.

Every bit of this spot on.

Rattler threw (pun intended) everything at our D. I knew it would be tough. Good passing O vs. Young D and especially our DBs.

Today I saw some growth out of this team, stepped up, played hard, played smart, and didn't give up. This should go a long way with this team and headed into the bye week. Although tempering expectations, but none the less, they took a big step forward today.

Absolutely no way we lose this game.

I think they found something with this Anderson kid. I could seee them being decent on offense moving forward. Rattler has moments but just isn’t a winner or consistent.

Anderson, wearing #24 looks like Otis Anderson.
