    I am not as worried about having to play UF again as some others. I say this because I'd rather us have to go through UF again since many say we were outplayed, should have lost, yada yada yada.

    I think we will see focused coaching staff and team should we face UF in the SECCG. Just think ahead to that week for a second: There are members of the media right now saying that they think Florida may be the best team in the country. And based off the game in Tiger Stadium, I think almost everyone will pick UF to beat us, thus fueling the fire a little more for us. So, I am ready for UF!!!

    I certainly get your point, but I would rather play Kentucky and have the revenge factor with us instead of against us.

    I bet the house that BC loses they have some tough games left VT, FSU, at Clemson, Miami. I know those are not brutal compared to SEC but for them it's a really tough road.

    As for OSU, I say they lose to Michigan...and maybe one more like this weekend to Penn State, but I wont bet the house, maybe my boat. :yelwink2:
    We could be #1 on Monday without playing.

    I hope for two things...1) the East comes down to the last game; and 2) LSU beats Alabama.

    That would give us the opportunity to buy up any extra SEC Championship tickets, book hotel rooms and/or flights, etc.

    It seems like it usually works the other way around in favor of the East.

    This is going to be one of the closest races in years simply because there is not a true cupcake team in the whole division this season. All 6 teams could end up in bowl games and not one of them currently has an overall losing record.

    Maybe they'll end up choosing like they did in Friday Night Lights -- coin flip at an undisclosed truck stop. :)

    IMO the west is a stronger conference than the east for a change!
    Like others I'm not excited about playing Florida again but I don't think Kentucky will be a factor in the end.
    The way I see it, it is between Florida, Georgia and South Carolina.
    I admit anything can happen but I think Tennessee could lose to Vandy and anyone else they play except for La Tech.

    I think Florida could easily win it all with Tivo and Harvin but it seems that Georgia and the Ole Ball Coach might have something to say about that meaning that Georgia and the Ole Ball coach have beaten Florida in previous years.
    I honestly think it will be Georgia or Florida in the end, they both have better teams and good coaches.

    I would not be surprised to see Georgia upset Florida this weekend.

    Georgia has had 2 weeks to prepare and Tebow has a bruised shoulder.
