    59-20? :grin: This year UT got beat on special teams though.

    In 2007 you had to run the ball to beat UF. LSU was able to do that, Tennessee not so much with relying on Ainge.

    Teams that can win championships out of the SEC usually need to be able to be multifaceted on offense in case someone shows up and shuts your bread and butter down.

    In 2007, Florida couldn't do much passing and didn't have any RB's. That was fixed this year.

    The Dustin Doe returned fumble made it 34-20, Florida, if I remember correctly. In hindsight, who's to say you weren't going to drive down field and make it a ball game? Florida's defense was so young and inconsistent at times, that there's no doubt the game would have came down to the wire given Tennessee didn't cough the ball up on that one possession.

    It was a combination of. Florida's pass defense was very young and inexperienced, they struggled at times, especially down the stretch, but I think every loss came with the cause you mentioned. When teams were reliant on the pass, and heavily favored the pass, for the most part Florida shut them down.

    Fumbles by Kestahn Moore ruined a shot at beating LSU, poor run defense cost us the Georgia game and I have no excuses for the Auburn loss. There's no crying in football, I'm just saying.

    They did a lot more passing than what you may have thought. I know down the stretch Tebow carried the ball alot more, as well as Harvin. We tried throwing the ball because we couldn't trust our running backs for the most part.
