    +28 sounded great at first. ut has a really good defense. however, im not exactly sure they will score with that offense they have, or even move towards the correct endzone. tebow and co. will be on the field all day.

    Right on the money!

    Tennessee thinks they have a decent defense. The problem is how many times the offense goes 3 and out or turns the ball over. If the offense can move the ball just a little, Florida barely covers. If the offense turns it over and goes 3 and out all day, they cover easy.

    correct. common sense has to side with getting that many points. but then you realize crompton may cover the number for UF himself.

    if this was my son, Id have to ask him to make sure UF covers the number to pay for his lifelong medical bills.

    I think Vegas is factoring in the FU factor that Urban is going to lay on Kiffen. If the game was played like two coaches normally would 17 is probably about right, but I"m telling you CUM will call timeout with 1 second left if he thinks he can punch another touchdown in. I wouldn't touch this game with MM's hands. It's scary what Florida could do to UT.

    and by the way, I am laying my hate and disdain for all things Florida off to the side for the three and a half hours immediately following the opening kickoff. I will be **gulp** rooting for florida.

    Normally, I would pick Tenn to cover based on the belief that Monty Kiffin has used all summer to devise a scheme to stop FU. But Tenn's offense is abysmal, particularly Crompton when he's under pressure; which will lead to 3/outs and wear down the Tenn defense. Look for FU to cover.

    Watch it now. Here's what I hear from my "connected" friends (I'm serious):

    If Miles goes 8-5, or something equally unappetizing, again, he will be bought out, no matter the cost.

    Saban will be brought in, no matter the cost. Saban will agree because his wife is itching to get back to BR.

    If you called him "Satan" you will feel silly loving him again.
