Treon would be a steadying presence if things start going bad in the game. Do you think we are better off not having Treon available to come in if needed?

One benefit of Treon not being avail is that Will is probably getting all the 1st team reps in practice vs. having to split them. It's a good time for that also.

The more I think about this game the more worried I am getting.. I need some reasons why we win other than Butch Jones is their coach. I watched a replay of the UK game (condenced to 15 min on YouTube) and my god our OL is bad.

I think that is possibly the key reason we lose this game.

****... somebody has to talk my ass off the ledge.. .I'm losing my mind.

Will Muschamp isn't our coach?

There is zero guarantee that Treon would be a steading presence. It's not as if he's Mr Perfect and never turns the ball over for one, secondly, Grier now doesn't have to look over his shoulder that he might get yanked, and in doing so, tries to make an all world play only to throw it in the dirt or worse, turn it over.

With not having Treon available, I expect Grier to play looser, and probably not scramble so quickly either.

Guess I am not sold on Grier having a real good game after watching the last 2 games. If he does play well and can stay relatively injury free then the Treon issue may not be a big one in coming weeks.

Now, I'm not necessarily saying he's gonna go out there and be Tom Brady and start throwing for 400 yards or anything, but I think with less concern that he could be yanked at any time, he should play looser, and perhaps because of that, he can play a little smarter.

Leaders don't jeopardize their future or the effort of those they purport to care about.... see Tebow, Wuerffel, Leak, etc. As the old saying goes, once is a mistake, twice is a habit. A selfish character to be sure and deserves the pine splinters.

And three times makes for a rehab project.

We REALLY need to get our running game going so that opens up some long passing attempts. I think our guys are going to be ready but if our offense can't get anything going then our D is gonna get wore out from being on the field for too long. I think Coach Mac will have our guys ready and our offense with some tricky plays and playcalling. Go Gators!!

Need to run outside, pitch it to JS, KT and Cronk and watch them go. F the proving we can run it inside Chump style, even though we can't. More short passes to RB to get them in space. Need to get the ball to DRob frequently, maybe even on a reverse. Calloway needs to be involved receiving and hopefully break a big return. Keep working the middle with the TE's. I'm waiting to see the Hey Diddle Diddle, a man down the middle from that practice video on ESPN. And maybe biggest thing is for Will to keep his eyes downfield when he scrambles. 7 yard run with a hit at the end is nice, but 20 yard completion w/o getting hit (or a flag for 15 more) is better.

Vols going full retard on social media, trying to troll UF, talking mad trash. UT official Twitter account announcing an orange celebration in the swamp after the game. We really need to shut those clowns up.

Inferiority likes to talk smack, we need to pound those genetic misfits... rag doll that QB, pancake that running game and pick pocket tosses.

Something tells me there will be no stampeding the field regardless of the outcome. I like our chances. Grier has a huge chance to stand out as a leader today. Hope he steps up.

We need to see a complete game. D needs to start off strong right out of the gates. O needs to limit mistakes - no turnovers in the red zone. Swamp needs to be LOUD. GO GATORS!
