Top 3 Realistic Goals for the Season

[Gatorbreath]

What are your top 3 realistic goals for the season? And, by realistic, I mean we can stretch a bit, maybe drink in some preseason "pumper" enthusiasm - but keep it realistic (subjective I know...). Mine:

1. 9 wins heading into the post-season.
2. Beat the filthy, disgusting, ass-sniffing Leghumpers
3. An offense that moves the ball, scores some points and is fun to watch (dare I say, begins to evoke the emotion of watching the Fun-N-Gun in the '90s).

While 9 wins is admittedly optimistic, assume for a moment we hold serve and win the ones we should (Idaho, EMU, UK, UT, Mizzou, Vandy, EKU). Also assume that Bammer on the road is too steep a hill to climb, and assume for my ever-loving sanity that we win the WLOCP (big assumption, but I swear by all that is holy I will go on a 3 state killing spree if we don't). That means that we need to find one win: at home against LSU, at home against USCe or on the road against the Clowns to get to 9 wins. Of the 3, LSU seems the most likely W, to me anyway. The Mad Hatter usually has a trick or two up his sleeve and he recruits as well as anyone not named Saban, but they have a lot of holes to fill on that roster including QB. I think the home crowd will be the difference. We'll rattle their youngsters and eke this out. That's 9 wins heading into a bowl game where we roll some corn-fed Big10 gomers for a 10 win season and a feel-good story if there ever was one.

As for our offense, man, there's a ton of paper talent, deep backfield with different styles of RB, we're healthy and Roper is getting raves. I love offensive football. Please, move the ball, score some points, limit turnovers and be fun to watch.

So, what are your 3 realistic goals for the season?

 

[TheDouglas78]

Represent the East in the SEC Championship game.

 

[ATXGator]

1. Offensive improvement - starting with OL, but also including WR and QB play. Basically move the ball and score more points. More big plays

2. Defensive pressure - get more sacks and really pressure opposing QBs into making bad plays

3. One "big" win and no "bad" losses - need a win vs. Bama, FSU, or UGA. I'd prefer FSU or UGA, but a win against Bama would be nice also.

 

[Free Gator]

1. More excitement in the games 2. Be in contention for Sec east when USC comes to town 3. Fans to be reasonable and not over react if thing turn bad.* * just kidding, 3 will never happen.

 

[TallyGator]

1. Much improved offense.
2. Win the games we are supposed to win...big if possible.
3. Be competitive in all games.

 

[GatorBart]

1. Start the season 4-1, at worst
2. Beat UGA
3. 8+ wins

 

[NavetG8r]

1. Offense acts like it wants to score as much as possible.
2. Beat the Mutts.
3. Win the East, then SEC, then NC.

 

[601Gator]

1. Have a good, solid offense that can take pressure off our defense and win us a ball game or two.
2. Beat Georgia.
3. Win the East.

 

[Concrete Helmet]

Win the east.
Beat the Clowns.
Knock the crab stealing, woman raping, King Ass Clown's d!ck in the dirt.

 

[Zambo]

Sell out a game.

 

[JC_Gator]

1. Beat Idaho
2. Beat E Michigan
3. Beat Kentucky
And so on...

 

[MJMGator]

Only one goal...win the SEC East. If that's not realistic, then we have sunken to depths we haven't seen in a generation.

You nailed it. Have an unpredictable competent offense, get the Ga monkey off our back, and win 9 (which means we won a very tough game or two we were not favored)

 

[Swamp Donkey]

We've added two powderpuff victories to the schedule over the last few years. I love how returning to Zook level is the only realistic option and anyone who suggests that 4-6 losses is unacceptable are people who "aren't being reasonable".

If Muschimp can't get win a championship his dawg smelling azzz should be fired.

Being a third tier SEC team (9-4, 8-5, 7-6) isn't good enough around here. I love how you just write off being competitive enough to compete with mighty LSU or Ugly. Hell, Zook beat those chumps.

You people are disgusting.

Exactly and the first two will result in number 3.

UF is going to win the SEC east with Muschamp as the coach and Driskel as the qb, and you're gonna learn to like it. The rest of us are going to spend the next year reminding you how insufferable you were during our brief down years and how you bashed everything about the program, the players, even the damn basketabll team. You're going to have Muschamp and Driskel shoved so far up your ass by the members of this board that you're going to develop a Stockholm-like Syndrome which finds you actually pulling for the players and coaches at the University of Florida.

 

[CaribGator]

1. Win the East
2. Be in the top 50 offensively
3 Beat our rivals, especially the leg humpers

day-um!

 

[QueenCityGator]

1. Sellout crowd at every home game
2. #1 ranked offense in the country
3. SEC and National Champs

Did I ask for too much this season?
