Mullen vs Mississippi?

[Indndawg]

How's this one gonna turn out?

[HailStateSZN19]

UF gonna roll that ass. I don't think their homer fans realize that UF returns so much (even with some opt-outs) and has the staff continuity to be a legit CFP contender.

Gators- 42

Lame Train- 17

[ZedFedder]

38-24 Gators.

I wish it were Arkansas instead of Mississippi. If it were Arkansas, it would lend itself to me wishing it was a South Alabama situation for Mullen. But, since it is Mississippi, 17 those shitbirds. Go Gators.
37-13

Florida should boat race them. Emphasis on should. Wouldn't totally shock me if this is one of those Kentucky 2014 or Arkansas 2017 kind of games where Dan fools around and lets a team he is way better than hang in there for a while.

Gators by 17-20 but if they are locked in it could be by 30+. I think Florida is going to be one of the best 2-3 teams in the SEC this year.

This is Dans best chance at a run for the SEC title and playoffs. He needs to beat UGA this year or UF fans will start to get restless. Personally, I think he will and UF wins the East with the experience they return. Whether they are up for beating Bama in the title game is another story and I?m not sure I see that happening.

Y'all tell me how UM is gonna score more than 17???

[parabrave]

Lanes gonna say to himself should've stayed in Florida after this one.

Big Game Dan is gonna big game the big game. And by that I mean choke on his playcard and lose to Georgia again.

[DownwardDawg]

Florida by 20 easy

[Commercecomet24]

42-7 gators

[DownwardDawg]

42-7 gators

About right

[BeardoMSU]

42-7 gators

I hope so, but Dan has a proclivity for tucking his dick back in games like this. Whether it's just flat out not showing up (and it being over before it begins), coming out flat, going with "seniority" over talent, there always seemed to be something that put a ceiling on his potential. I do expect Florida to win, but I can definitely see them trailing at half or something weird like that.

Mullen pretty much always handled the games he was supposed to handle.

I guess it depends on what our definitions of "handle" is...as well as "supposed to"...

This might not be a totally exhaustive list, but looking back at some of the scores and going off memory...

I remember him needing overtime to beat LaTech
We lost to USA, BYU, and Kentucky in the same year.
In arguably our best year ever as a program, we get boat raced by OM....then the next year at home on Dak's senior night (not to mention 2012...)
We got murdered that same year by GTech
We let Kentucky hang around in 2014
We came up extremely small against Auburn in 2011...a very mediocre team.
Troy 2012 I think we needed a Chad Bumphis TD late to win.
That same year, losing decisively to a Northwestern team that was playing in their first bowl in 2 centuries...
The 2013 Oklahoma State fiasco. We were never in that game. And he (or Strickland perhaps, can't remember) later apologized for us playing in it.
That same year Bowing Green we barely won
Needed a last second FG to beat Miami of Ohio (lol)....and this is after him smoking a cigar after beating a dog shit OM team, as if that was some big accomplishment (he had us pegged).
And his last year where his nuts shriveled up in the 4th quarter against Bama, and his foot was out the door against OM. That year should've been a New Year's Six bowl.

Look, I'm not a Dan hater by any stretch; I mostly think fondly back on his years here....but it is what it is.
