    Anything else?

    -- Tebow is a beast and likely will not get rattled easily.
    -- Be wary of Percy Harvin at all times, because he can break a game open just like that.
    -- Brandon James is very dangerous on special teams punt and kickoff returns.
    -- Their young safety Major Wright has alot of Reggie Nelson in him (big hitter, "the eraser").
    -- Their running game isn't all that great.
    -- Their young, talented defense has struggled at times and is capable of being run on.

    Tebow IS their running game. Huge game tonight, what does Meyer do?

    He lets their STARTING RB run the ball three times. Percy Harvin ran it 4 times, and Fayson (another WR) ran it twice.

    Turnovers that killed us last year will be the key again.I think we match up very nicely with them we need to come out and play like we did against V-tech.

    I don't think anyone can fully shut down Tebow, so I won't be all that mad if he makes some plays, it's just minimizing the rest of the team's production. I think we have an advantage over them at most positions so we just need to play our game and step up at home in Death Valley.

    We should dominate the line of scrimmage. Florida has small dlineman so we should be able to pound the ball all night long. Auburn's dline dominated Florida's oline, so we should to.

    If Florida does the same thing on offense that they did last night, we will win BIG. That offense was very predictable.

    I don't know. Tulane's D-line embarrassed our O-line yesterday

    That happens when your oline is sleepwalking. And we still were able to pound the ball when we needed to. The run blocking wasnt bad. Our oline will be ready for this game.

    Agreed. Next week will be at night in Death Valley... I suspect we'll handily beat the Gators. Ole Miss and Auburn both found ways to expose them so there's no reason to think we couldn't easily do the same.

    Florida is going to be fired up and ready to play. They are going to want to bounce back and make a statement on the road against a top two team in the nation.
