***OFFICIAL GAME THREAD: Florida vs LSU***

Discuss.

Crazy LSU opened up as a favorite by a point after how they looked - but it was Auburn not Tenn. Some people are predicting we win 2-0 after watching both teams last week. I think our defense should be able to hold them in check for the most part to get the win.

 

[Left Coast Gator]

Gators should match up well against this young group of Bayou Bengals...

 

[TN G8tr]

I think the line will move by Saturday. Our D will hold them in check. And a usual it's up to WM to see if he sticks with TH or he's working on JD's mental state. Harris should start. It's a no brainer. But then again it's WM.

 

[Left Coast Gator]

Muschamp is not stupid. His choice of a starting quarterback seems like a no-brainer.

If he starts Driskel, he risks the embarrassment of having 80,000 Gator fans booing him on national television.

He has nothing to lose by starting Treon. If the freshman starts and succeeds, Muschamp also succeeds. If Treon bombs, Muschamp's reluctance to play him earlier would be vindicated and some of his critics muted.

Had some comments ready. I'll have to redo them now.

Yep.
Well, JD lead the Gators in defeat of LSU in the Swamp two years ago - and he essentially did nothing to help. Maybe we can do it again?

You're right about that one. Maybe he does better against their Defense.

 

[Gator Fever]

Is the line moving against us now

 

[GatorJ]

Is Grier going to come to the rescue?

 

[AugustaGator]

where's the score contest thread?

 

[Okeechobee Joe]

Right now Muschamp smells worse than corndogs.

 

[G8RNGA]

I thought we had a real chance in this game if Harris played. Now, not so much. I see this game as something similar to the UK game with neither team capable of doing much or it will be both teams scoring points - the teams are too even in many ways. I think we have home field advantage and that's what saves us, but it's close, real close at the end.

Wait for it......We win.....

 

[NavetG8r]

If we can run on them without a passing game, we can win. If not, we're gonna lose. With Jeff at QB, and the rest of the offense hating him, or not wanting to play for him, or whatever their problem is with not wanting to block, catch, and execute when he's in the game, we'll continue to suck on offense. The rest of the team has to pull their heads out of their collective :moon: and support Jeff 100% for us to have any kind of decent season.

 

[FatCatG8r]

WOW. Only one page on the second most prescient thread of the week. Hmmmm.

Well, in for a dime, in for a dollar. We win a close game because we have three fewer dropped passes than we've been averaging.

 

[Swamped Gator]

The running game is our only shot. If we can't run we are doomed. Can JD manage the game and not make dumb mistakes? Does this team even believe in JD? He has zero confidence right now and you better believe the crowd is going to boo him whenever he makes his first mistake. He certainly isn't going to magically find his accuracy overnight, but can he wake up and stop making dumb mistakes.

 

[Coach9]

LSU isn't playing offense or defense. At least we're playing defense again. Look for a repeat of the 2012 style game.

A real slobber-knocker. That's Muschamp's kind of ball.

Jumbo Package returning ?
