    We all know about their stud TE Ingram....also 2 safeties Dorian Munroe and John Curtis. Now LB Brenden Beal and OL Jim Barrie. Both were projected as backups.

    As poor as the Gators were defending the pass, they will have a tough time coping with the injuries to the safeties as well as Jamar Hornsby's dismissal. Looks like we will get to see how good Will "The Thrill" Hill really is.

    I remember Beal being recruited as a highly touted LB, that sucks for him.

    Poor conditioning they say/ believe. Something about improper stretching techniques. Their turf never created 5 of the same so this is no fluke. Meyer has no history elsewhere so it has to be...?

    5 torn acl's is a bit mind boggling to me. thats a serious injury to be dealing with. whatever is causing them needs to get straightened out. while i dont care for the gators, i hate so see some sort of deficiency in their system, whatever it is, cause injuries like that.

    Systematic problems include poor conditioning (they don't do the karate we do) and failure to work as SMART as our guys do during the summer.

    Expect even more of it, if Meyer keeps pushing them.

    Never underestimate the power of a great strength and conditioning program. We take ours for granted. Florida will correct this, but the cost is likely a National Championship shot this year.
