    i'm gonna hold off my vote for a little while.

    I'm not sure we know a lot about either of these two teams just yet.

    Bama's best win was against Va. Tech.
    yeah that looks pretty good right now, but the Hokies needed a defensive meltdown to beat Nebraska, and they tried to lose to Duke.

    Florida's best win is against us.
    And we haven't exactly lit anyone up yet.
    Florida also struggled a bit with Tennessee, and who knows what the hell to expect against them.

    Florida's D is even better than Bama's. Florida has a better QB for sure.

    Fla.

    Both have good D's. Bama has a better passer, but he's inexperienced in big games. I think the Fla. D will go after him. I'd take Fla. and Tebow to win. Timmy's been there and done that.

    I would have to say if Bama and Florida meet in the SEC CG this year, it will be a mirror image of what happened last year.

    Bama's D will keep Florida in check for about 3 quarters, but Tebow will make the plays when necessary and Bama's O just won't be enough.

    Anybody for round 2 of Bama meltdown of an undefeated season going down the shytter?

    Exactly the way I see it! Bama has a better QB this year but their O-line can not handle Florida. Close game but in the end Florida pulls it out even if they are behind.

    Heres hoping for another gump meltdown which is always sweet in my neck of the woods.

    it's hard to say right now, but if i'm just going by right now, i don't think anyone in the country is playing better than bama. but the season still has quite a ways to go.


    my God it pains me to type that.

    I'm going with the tebows. Bama is suspect. I watched kentucky push them around the field a couple weeks ago and had they not self destructed had a chance to make it close.

    Florida is the same team that beat a better Alabama team last year. I know, I know, no Percy Harvin or Louis Murphy, but Alabama has no Andre Smith, and no Antoine Caldwell on the line, McElroy is good, but he is missing something. The defense lost a great linebacker, and they are good, but they also miss Rashad Johnson on defense. I think Julio Jones if they could get him the ball would have an easier time because of the smaller corners and safeties, but i like Spikes and Black and co. to make McElroy's life a living hell. I think Florida is the better team, and i think LSU matches up with Alabama alot better than they match up with Florida.

    Florida has no exploitable weaknesses if Tebow is healthy.

    Bama does.
