LSU/Florida

I hope LSU annihilates Florida. LSU's gameday atmosphere looks amazing. The stadium sounds very loud.
7-0 LSU already.

I wouldn't go that far. They played the #2 and #1 teams back to back with freshman QB's playing 75% of the time. How do you think we would have fared against LSU with Brian Bennett and Marcus Mariota playing? They're definitely a top 20 team with Brantley.Boom wrote:Florida should have never been ranked...
Just like last year.
Brantley is hardly a difference maker. I would take Bennett over him.Duck24 wrote:I wouldn't go that far. They played the #2 and #1 teams back to back with freshman QB's playing 75% of the time.

Brantley has never beaten a ranked opponent.Duck24 wrote:Get some perspective...they're playing with two frosh QB's, both of whom were 3rd string or lower just last week. If we played with Bennett and Mariota against LSU, we get shutout, hands down no questions asked. Remember how pathetic we looked with Kempt against UCLA? And for Boom who says he would prefer Bennett and his one garbage time passing TD over Brantley, your Oregon colored glasses just came through. Brantley was three games into playing with a new OC and looked good. Bama made him look bad but they make everyone look bad.
Brantley had 190 yards passing in the first half of the Bama game before going down with his injury. At that point, Bama was up 17-10 I believe.Duck24 wrote:Get some perspective...they're playing with two frosh QB's, both of whom were 3rd string or lower just last week.

They lost to the top two teams in the nation. They are worthy of their ranking at full strength, in my opinion, and I think it is kind of unfair to judge them by their performance against LSU and Bama. No one has looked “good” against us or the tide this year, and it is important to remember that Florida was holding their own against Bama until the starting QB went down.karlhungis wrote:Amazing how bad they look when you consider their recruiting.....
The East is only a glimmer of their former selves, and compared to the West, they are awful-ish. It was not too long ago they were saying the same about us though.The East division is awful.
Uh huh.... they were also ranked 12th in nation when they played Alabama last year and then 14th the very next week (after that loss) when they played LSU.Bud Lee wrote:They lost to the top two teams in the nation. They are worthy of their ranking at full strength
Right... so we're suppose to judge them against Florida Atlantic, UAB, and 2 of the worst teams in the SECBud Lee wrote:in my opinion, and I think it is kind of unfair to judge them by their performance against LSU and Bama
I was comparing Kempt/Roper's 2007 results vs UCLA/OSU to that of the UF QB's vs Bama (2nd half) and LSU. We played teams that didn't have nearly the D that Bama and LSU have and looked just as bad, if not worse. If you'd take Bennett and his one garbage time passing TD over John Brantley then...well I don't know what to say. To each their own I guess. Brantley was doing pretty damn good and even looked decent against Bama before getting hurt. He's by no means Andrew Luck but to say he's, for a lack of better words, a garbage QB, is just plain wrong. And funny how on this forum that if you say anything that can even be construed as critical of the Ducks and complimentary of the SEC, you're a troll.Boom wrote:Brantley has never beaten a ranked opponent.Duck24 wrote:Get some perspective...they're playing with two frosh QB's, both of whom were 3rd string or lower just last week.

And comparing Bennett to Kempt...Your troll glasses just came through.
