Re: Week 7 CFB
I like Florida a lot. The matchups are just way, way, in their favor. Auburn's shown a huge weakness the last two weeks with rushing QBs and with stopping the run in general. If anyone should be able to exploit that, it's Florida. I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see Tebow take 70-80% of the snaps on Saturday and put up something ridiculous like 400 all-purpose yards. If you were going to design an offense for the express purpose of exploiting Auburn's defense, it would be Meyer's spread option.

Re: Week 7 CFB
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] A few lines are up pretty early today. A line that absolutely shocked me was Florida @ Auburn (-1.5). I was just wondering what others thoughts were on this. Auburn's secondary obviously looked very shaky in the South Carolina although they were missing a starting corner. But against a team that is going to run their quarterback as well as throw with another one, I think Auburn could get shredded here. I'm guessing they are giving Auburn some credit for being at home, but this still seems way off. [/ QUOTE ] That Florida has to be a joke. I just took Florida -1.5 +114. Florida is the best team in the country. They might not win them all b/c the schedule is just brutal. Auburn beat LSU at home by 4. Florida beat LSU at home by 13. Auburn cant stop the run and South Carolina offense is not Florida. Even away Florida wins this game by a FG. -SFWUSC [/ QUOTE ] not sure I agree SFWUSC Flroida beat LSU because of 5 turnovers and home field Auburn lost becuase it's d-line was a mismatch and it couldn't make enough plays elsewhere (ie...the lack of WRs is making this offense to one-dimensional). Auburn's d-line will not be a mismatch while leak is in, but could struggle verse Tebow The whole S Car/Auburn game was just a terrible scheme by Auburn. Auburn's coaching staff, which had been one of its great strengths over the past two seasons, is coming apart at the seems. If Auburn shows up, they are still the better team and will win. HOwever, Auburn tends to be MIA an awful lot lately. [/ QUOTE ] I don't buy that Auburn is the better team. Florida's defense is awesome, and it looks like Meyer is learning how to rotate Leak and Tebow effectively, which if he does that rotation right, this is a scary offense, especially by SEC standards. Maybe it's a square play, but I'll take the team that just blew out LSU over the team that just got blown out by Arkansas. OK THX BYE |

Re: Week 7 CFB
I think Florida is better, but not by a lot. One thing I could have told you before the season started:
Razorback OL >>>>> Gator OL Therefore, I don't think Florida's average run game will expose Auburn nearly as bad as Arkansas did. Yes, Tebow will do well there, but he only had 15 snaps against LSU. Too many questions for *me* to see any value. I'm probably the least competent of the regulars though, so take it for what its worth. |
