Michigan player responds to Jalen Tabor saying Wolverines not 'that good'
Florida defensive back Jalen “Teez” Tabor spoke to reporters on Friday ahead of the Gators’ bowl game versus Iowa.
Last year, Michigan demolished Florida in the Citrus Bowl by a score of 41-7. The game was never in question — as the Wolverines completely took control from the start.
Despite the huge loss, Tabor wasn’t overly impressed with the talent that Michigan possessed:

On Saturday, Michigan senior DL Chris Wormley saw this quote from Tabor. He felt compelled to respond with this tweet:
Come on now big fella! 41-7 😂😂 https://t.co/HqUtLYRJmA

Tabor is correct in the sense that Michigan is a well-coached squad. However, they’re also plenty talented — as evidenced by its 10-2 record this past year.
The Washington D.C. native is likely headed for the NFL after this bowl appearance. However, Florida can prove itself to be the better team in 2017. The Wolverines and the Gators will square off versus one another in the ’17 season opener at AT&T Stadium.
I can’t stand Tabor, but I have to admit when he talks trash, most of the time he is right. But in this instance, he just makes himself look foolish. As much as I hate Michigan and especially Harbaugh, they would wipe the floor with Florida.
He’s a great player and all but when you get beat 41-7 there’s not much room for trash talk. But unless Franks or Trask decides to play big and show up big over the summer and fall I don’t see the score being much different this time

Amazing how someone can talk trash after their team gets beat by 34 points. When you get beat that bad, the best thing you can do is keep your mouth shut. Can’t wait to see how bad Michigan beats Florida next year.
I’ll take Florida over Michigan next year. It’s one thing to get blown out in a bowl game after you lost the SECCG, it’s another when it’s the first game. I’m not impressed with the BIG10 like everyone at ESPN. I think Wisconsin pulled a 1 in 10 win from LSU and from there they never shut up. Anyone here really think Wisconsin or Michigan would keep it close with Alabama? I don’t. Florida will have a good ball club next year and I expect them to win the east again.

He is right. Michigan isn’t that good… Or should I say they are overrated? They are a pretty good team, but if they were in the SEC they would be like.. An Arkansas or TA&M.
Why does he consistently have to prove that he is an idiot?!? You get beat by 34 points by a team and they ARE better than you. Just lace up and play ball Teez!
