so going undefeated during the regular season , going wire to wire as a #1 team , holding lsu to 3 points in tiger stadium at night and you want to tell me florida regressed becuase of losing to a team that was vastly improved

i'm not buying it , they had 1 close call all year , against Arkansas at home other that that they never had to sweat

alabama was a better team this year no question , but , i'm not buying the fact that florida was worse than last year , i watched a defense shut everyone down this year during the regualr season , they layed an egg yesterday and mcillroy came up big but that was the only bad game of the year for them

(yawn)

the gators were the third highest scoring offense in the country last year (46.3 per game) and won by a staggering average of 37 points. This year, they won by an average of 11.8 per game and scored on average nearly 20 points less.

Last year's squad was being compared to amongst the best in Gator history as well as one of the best in college football in the last 20 years. This year? They won and did what they needed to do but they were hardly dominant in a few games that you would expect them to crush.

The defense was great all year. But the offense just wasnt the same. All in all, they werent as good.

I have to agree that i dont think fla was as good this year on off as they were last year but there d iwould think would be pretty close to last year. All in all bama dominated start to finish and really showed an aggressive playcalling that u have to think threw uf off from the opening bell. I am a bama fan but i always try to look at things in a even light and my ? for texas is that, and correct me if im wrong, most of the teams in the big 12 run a form of the spread. my concner for them would be once they start getting hit in the face by the bama o line what is gonna happen? ive watched bama all year and its been the sam thing. 1st qtr runs for 2-4yds 2nd qtr runs for 3-5 yds and by the 4th there getting 8-10 yds they just wear you down. is texas ready for that? i know that texas is good but i think the styles in the teams play i.e. physical v.non physical texas hasnt run the ball much will make a difference.
