    With this logic you can argue that since we played so horribly against USM, Mizzou has a good chance of beating us. Get outta here with that man. When you look at a game objectively you look no further than the talent each team has. I know it pains you to admit OM is talented but it's true. Just like we have more talent than Missouri and should roll in that game they are more talented than Florida...

    Since 2011 Florida's recruiting rankings are 11, 4, 3, 9 and 21 last year with the coaching change. But you think it's obvious that UNM out talents Florida? I will give you they have some of the better players at certain positions but overall team talent...Florida has more talent than I think you believe. What hurts them is QB and another new offense and identity to make the offense go. That will take some time. But don't act like Florida has talent just above Vandy.

    When you look at om's talent vs vandy's what "objective" result did you come up with? An 11 point win?

    There's more to football games than pure talent. Florida is a bad matchup for om's offense. Florida's secondary matches up well with om's wr's. Om's defense is certainly superior to Florida's offense, but Connor out opens up the te some. Florida loves using their te.

    I think this game is much closer than the blowout you expect. Maybe Vegas should call you for you "objectivity" and move the line to OM -35, since OM is unbeatable

    and UF's secondary is better than UA's... this "Break but don't Bend" defense is frustrating, at times...

    I think Florida's team and fans are hungrier for a win right now. They have been on the outside looking in for several years now, it?s like getting to sit at the head of the table for years and being the center of attention and then suddenly and with out warning being move to the back yard picnic table. That team will be fired up and the fans will be fired up. They are ready to be an important part of college football again. They are 4-0 and have the #3 team in the country coming in. Ole Miss better be ready to play.

    It's gonna come down to Kelly. If Kelly doesn't turn it over, OM will win. If he turns it over, it's real close. If Kelly lets vh3 hit him for a pick 6, Florida wins

    I think Ole Miss has a QB problem as well. It started to turn up against Bama. Ole MIss had 94 total yards in the first half of that game. Bama saved Kellys ass. It really started to show it's ugly head against Vandy. Kellys head is going to get so turned around Saturday he is going to look like that little girl from the Exorcist.

    First of all, I never said anything about a blowout... I said to say Florida pulls off the upset is wishful thinking... Don't put words in my mouth... I have watched both teams play and yes I'm sorry OM is more talented than Florida... And if Vegas has them as a 6.5 point favorite in such a "hostile" environment then I would say they are pretty confident too.... Look we all want them to lose but actively rooting against them and to say that every team they play has a legit shot at the upset is ridiculous... We can talk about this on Sunday and if I'm wrong I will own it (but I won't be wrong... See my LSU prediction)... Personally, I think we need to focus on A&M... But that's just me

    I said the game will be close and you attacked my objectivity. If you attacked me for saying it will be close, what were you in essence saying?

    Also, I'm not so vain to think my focus on the aTm game will make one bit of difference. You are right though, this argument is getting old. Haha

    Do what? I'm not going to call you a bear, but I'll lump you in with the other MSU fans that just can't fathom someone is better than the Bears. Talk about little brother syndrome. Geez. You sound just like the State fan I argued with last week that it's "obvious" Kelly is a better QB than Dak.

    And what the hell, man? You think actively rooting against your rival is ridiculous? Seriously? And somehow thinking Florida has a chance to upset them in the Swamp is ridiculous?

    I guess it goes without saying you think it is ridiculous for any MSU fan to think we can win against aTm. I mean they are 6.5 point favorites. Guess we should all be concentrating on the Troy game now since it would be ridiculous to even think we have a chance in College Station.

    Guys, make sure we focus on Texas A&M. If we, as message board posters, are not focused, the team will not play well.**

    I got an idea, why don't yall just make a bet on the OM/UF game?

    vCash, real cash or a sig?... I've found that often resolves who has both confidence and conviction...

    No.

    So in your "objective" opinion Auburn would kill us this past Saturday. Gotcha...makes perfect sense.*

    Only problem I see is that Fla will be coming off winning a game against a bitter rival. No. Miss is not a rival of theirs. They will be up no doubt, but it won't be the hate that they have for Tn. Another thing...Fla. is learning how to win again. Mentally, do they have what it takes? I certainly hope so.

    Negative... IMO we are more talented than Auburn... I actually money-lined us last weekend.. so there's that... And TUSK, Pokechop Womack is a degenerate gambler always willing to take on a friendly wager...

    Florida can only win if they win the TO battle. If OM plays clean, they win.
