I don’t know if I’d take the over. Big time season openers can be sloppy. Hope y’all put it on Dabo though.

Most of these guys were playing together on the second team all last year with Emory. There will definitely be a drop off from last year, but you would think they have good chemistry from all those second team reps together.

If we win out we’re in. This just shows how much Alabama will be favored in Atlanta.

Both teams will be improved in a couple weeks. UF will be better at the fundamentals on defense and we haven’t seen Daniels yet for UGA. I think Franks would’ve done a lot better if he could have been developed for a couple years before being the starter. Mac through him into the fire his freshman year, and I think it messed with his head.

And we were missing our top 2 safeties. Is it a big deal we have up 620 yards to Lane Kiffin? Probably not. Is it a big deal y’all were down 7-5 against Arkansas at the half? Probably not, but it’s funny as hell.

Have they made any decisions about bowl games? I’m assuming they’re canceled. As far as the playoffs I’m sure the committee won’t be meeting in person. They’ll push their final rankings back to accommodate the power five conferences.

Come on man, coaches leave kids behind all the time for better jobs. He’s not hurting anyone by choosing another school, Tennessee’s been recruiting really well.

To me this year is all about UGA. Kirby is steadily out recruiting us. If we go 11-1 this year beating UGA hopefully we pull a top 5 class.

Not this year, The last couple years of Jimbo and then Willie left the cupboard empty. Norvell just shortened his leash though, FSU are truly delusional, if he doesn’t win they’ll point to this and claim he lost the team

Worked out OK, only lost to recruiting national champion UGA, and actual national champions LSU

This seems to be blowing over, no way FSU fires him just for that. All he needs is an 8-4 season, decent recruiting, and then they’ll forget all about this.

If It looks like Lingard and Pierce are going to get the majority of carries, I could see him transferring to a smaller school for playing time. Mullen will probably want Wright and Clement to carry the ball in garbage time.

Does Malik Davis stick around?

Pruitt is doing really good right now. The question is will he be able to hold onto them if Tennessee goes through another 7-5, or 6-6 year. Especially if FL and GA turn out to be top 10 programs as expected. A shortened season may actually help y’all out.

I agree, Jimbo is a great recruiter, but not a great coach. That 2013 FSU team was loaded with NFL talent, and he hasn’t been able to have the same success without Winston as his QB. No excuses this year, his recruits are now upperclassmen and the schedule couldn’t be better.

I agree, it’s easy enough to ignore the trolls. Mullen is obviously recruiting better than shark man, but Kirby is pulling top 3 classes so there is still a significant gap there. The thing that could sour Mullen to me is if he never makes the leap on recruiting, Florida should be in the top 5 pulling 5 stars, not 8th on the nation. If he doesn’t start recruiting at Georgia’s level, he’ll never consistently beat them.

It is nice to see us win a few of these recruiting battles. That’s the one area of CDM’s resume that worried me. Especially going against Saban/Kirby/Dano. After living in college football wilderness for much of the past decade this is a breath of fresh air.

Sounds like he wanted to play with his brother. I don’t think the sky is falling in Athens. I hate to say it but I think Kirby slides in another 5 star tackle, hits the transfer portal for his QB. Looking forward to Jacksonville this year.

Are you sure Alabama is ranked above Florida? They have the same record, and Florida has the only top 25 win of the two over an Auburn team that beat Alabama. I’m not sure who would win head to head, but Florida has the better resume and Bama has lost it’s most exciting player.

I agree 1000% I couldn’t believe how slow they went on that drive. And to not even attempt an onside kick when you’re going against a Georgia offense that’s been moving the ball all day, Mullen deserves more criticism than Grantham in my opinion.

While I don’t think Florida is in the national title hunt this year, if Franks went down Trask has shown he can be as good and Emory Jones has a higher ceiling. I still think we go 9-3, or 8-4 with either of them under center.

What 5 coaches do you put above him in the SEC? Saban, Kirby, and Fisher I’ll give you, but Mullen has shown to be as good or better than Orgeron, Stoops, and Malzahn.

With Kirby I doubt you will be hurting for talent anytime soon. He’s a hell of a recruiter.

Very true, Kirby is a hell of a recruiter. Hopefully Mullen has another good year, I think if he does we compete with y’all and Bama in 2020.

Y’all hired the DB coach who gave up all those touchdowns

He’s definitely a Colorado/west coast guy. Just never a good fit in Gainesville. Maybe he’ll have better luck there.

I’m impressed he can remember who he played this year. Must have eased up on his medication.

Taggart is a clown. Maybe he should worry more about teaching his team fundamentals like how to line up correctly, and worry less about pre-game dancing and Dora backpacks.
