    If we happen to lose a close one, are you going to complain that we should have won and that Napier should be fired?

    or

    If we get blown out, are you going to complain that we should have won and that Napier should be fired?

    or

    In the extremely unlikely event that we win, are you going to complain that we should have beaten Miami, Texas A&M, and Tennessee and that Napier should still be fired?

    or

    Are you going to let the season play out?

    Georgia by 20, an improvement by 1 over last season.

    Napier doesn’t get grace for being a huge underdog because he’s the reason we are a huge underdog. Its ridiculous that we are such dogs

    He has 5 games left and the only one that is 100% must win or fire is FSU.

    Beyond that 2-2 vs the ranked teams gets the job done. Doesn’t matter which

    I don't know yet what I will complain about, but rest assured there will be something. As to the line, I wouldn't touch it. Most likely outcomes are a close loss or a blowout loss.

    Edit: If I had cash to burn, I would take a flier on the FL $ line. Win a bunch of $ on a small bet. Who knows? Maybe DJ has his Chris Leak moment.

    I'm going to complain about whatever happens no matter what, because damnit, that's my god-given right and I'm on a message board! :devil:

    Imagine believing a 3rd year coach at Florida should get a pass for getting blown out multiple times because the schedule is hard...

    Have to admit, CBN lost me after the early losses but the team is playing better; if Beck poops the bed like he has some this year, I like our chances.

    Not going to complain but want him gone irrespective of the rest of the season. It seems clear he is a good man, a good recruiter, a thoughtful and organized manager who has trouble thinking outside the box and is an average coach at best.

    I’m with you that a blowout loss or close loss are the bounds of likely outcomes, but I would feel like the latter is a bit more likely, so this line seems a little too big to me. I would not bet a Florida game this year at all, as their outcomes are way too chaotic, but I think Florida can likely keep this close.

    I sat in the rain in the old Gator Bowl and watched the ‘Dawgs beat us 51-0 years ago! The odds weren’t as good as they are now!

    I think some people are going to find out we will look a lot different versus Georgia than we did against a team that will finish 1-7 in the SEC this year.

    Time for Napier to make a statement
    I think he's a good coach and would be 5-2 if he would have went for 2 against Tenn.
    Has got good young players and maybe best QB in country not yet but by next year can be AA.
    Just needs to show the players and recruits, he can win a big game.
    Upset special and get this program turned around.

    Say what you want about Mullen, that game was fun to watch! And Hev’s Oline held up just fine against that 5 star defensive front.
    And the way we’ve been playing lately, we can totally shock the college football world this Saturday. Let’s goooo! Go Gators!
