LB Ventrell Miller, SR.
LB Amari Burnery, SR.
LB Diwun Black, JR.

Those are the most three experienced LB's in the room. They have had considerable amount of snaps. I think they will hold their own against this group. Yes, they have meaningul coaching now. That should be one of the missing elements they didn't have last year.

You mean CRob . They’re still incredibly inexperienced and only very recently started getting meaningful coaching.
Utah had the 40th ranked offense and are supposed to be worse than that this year after losing some guys.

Throw in their 2021 #59 ranked Defense (tied with Middle TN St.) and they lost several including an all American.
And so is Mr. "I'm a great tackler...4-5 yards past the line of scrimmage" Diabate.
Yep Diabetus will be running all over (hiding) in the cluster of bodies. I want to see O'Cyrus Torrence just absolutely Pancake him.

LBs have very little experience outside of Miller who didn’t play last year.

On the other hand, they lost 6 of their front 7 on defense from last year and we have the potential to run all over them.

I like my pick.

Utah runs a heavy 12 & 13...Their TEs are key and they have a seasoned OL...Our LB's will be taxed and DB's ain't LBs. Most of their passing is screen, flat, <5yrd...Heavy YAC...Our DB's should smother their WR.

We have better talent...they know their system and are well coached. There is a reason the spread is -2.5.

In my non-Football opinion...The real key will be OUR OL they lost a lot on the "D" BUT HOW MUCH has Napier been able to implement in such a short time...And can AR hit the deep ball?

Gator brothers and sisters...I can't wait.

I'm leaving my Orange and Blue glasses on.

Florida - 45 (got to let our kicker have something)
Utah - 14 (slop points after our backups are in)

Diwun Black is your example of experience?

Not an expectation but more of a “would like” to see break out, Lingard. The kid works hard and is an absolute physical specimen and I’d really like to see him have a great game and a great year.
Does anyone else wanna tell him or should I?

We had the worst DC in college football for several years. It wasn't lack of talent. Well, except wasn't Diabetus the LB who had 10 counters in a row ran in front of him? That was lack of talent..
