Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
Not to mention UF held Percy Harvin/Riley Cooper out most of the game and kept the offense very vanilla. It could of been a 70-77 offensive point performance if they wanted to.

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
Also, Troy can play a little bit of offense. They passed the ball 90% of the time. They have a good QB and a spread attack, they threw all underneath/crossing passes but busted 3-4 monster plays the entire game, 2 of which were against second team defensive. They basically had 1 huge play in the first quarter & 1 in the 4th that rally mattered.

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
Now, despite all of this, UF could lose this game vs UT, who knows. The defense is untested & inexperienced.
That's why even trying to rank teams right now is stupid, like ranking South Carolina 8th in the country. |

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
lol, I'm fine. I don't care if UF isn't ranked but "Did you see what Troy did?" is unwarranted.

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
my bad...Troy put up a fluke 31 points, 21 first downs, and 280+ yards passing
It's not like Troy began their drives at their own 24 own 25 own 36 own 21 own 26 own 22 own 35 own 11 own 3 own 21 Fla 1 (with a missed FG here) own 43 own 35 own 25 own 41 had 2 of those drives end halves and still score 31 without a special teams or defensive touchdown ooops....that's exactly what happened then, the offense Florida avg just over 22 ppg in the SEC last year, which is above avg (5th in conference) However, they lost their long-term starter Tebow was only playing safe downs/situations last year....you didn't see him in 3rd and long backed up inside his own 30. This is the year Florida is down. They struggled to bring in the talent during the coaching turnover. They're a little short on experienced talent this year. They're still a good team, but 9-3 seems to be the likely upper end on their achievements this regular season unless Meyer can inspire them to overachieve. |

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
My prediction is 10-2 so it's not like I am expecting the world from this team. They are definitely not as good as last year but Special Teams & Offense could make this a very special year.
First, your point about the offense. We've only seen them looking awesome so far this year. It's expected that they will be much better than last year. They look very dangerous, I don't get if you're trying to say they won't be as good as last year or what. We have arguably the most talent on offense in the nation. Tebow was only playing safe downs? Obviously that's incorrect. Safe yardages without passing? Correct. They struggled to bring in talent during the coaching turnover? No, not really, our sophomore talent is sick as it is but most is offense. But you are right, we're a little short on experienced talent on defense at least. As for your offensive stats for Troy. 150 yards passing vs 2nd team defense. 1 TD/1 FG vs 2nd team defense. I don't even really care, the half that mattered the FL defense played awesome. Troy has a very capable QB & he did a good job against a young D. They threw the ball every play, they were going to get close to 300 yards passing. The jury is out on the team/defense but it's not like Troy walked all over us like the score may indicate. |

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
2-3 impressive drives, which wasn't as good as Arkansas' D did. Mostly domination though, especially in the first half.
The whole team came out flat in the second half & Troy was ready to play. They can play offense. |

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
MT2R, this is all really irrelevant because UF is trying things in the secondary, most subs played in the first half as well because they are obviously trying to give everyone a chance to get some experience. Derrick Harvey & Tony Joiner(only 2 returning defenders) didn't even play after the first quarter really until the end.
