    Both teams are 0-1 and I haven't seen a betting line on the game yet.

    Conventional wisdom dictates we come out with our hair on fire and leave behind scorched earth after that embarrassing disappointing attempt of a game last week.

    And surely playing this lowly FCS opponent in The Swamp no less - we can manage at least one TD per quarter....all the while holding the Bulldogs to half that.

    So the question remains.....what about points for field goals and special teams?

    I think I'll just keep it simple this week and go with.....

    Florida: 28
    Samford: 14

    GO Gators!

    An uncomfortable slog of a game that will put BN on a hotter seat.

    Samford lost to west georgia last week.
    If there was ever a time to win 63-0 it would be this game. With that being said 38-21.

    I hope DJ can stay healthy and make some quick decisions. I would like to see a couple of the young backs have a big day.

    Does it matter?
    This could be our only win this year (perhaps one other).

    Last year we beat Charlotte 22-7. This team seems just as incapable as that one so I'm not expecting much.

    27 - 10

    I think, hope I’m wrong, the team and coaches will adopt an “us against the world “ mentality and show some spunk. We win 45-17.

    I hope Samford gets little bits of something to celebrate about in a 50 point loss that our learning lessons for UF. The university I teach at plays UGA this weekend and it’s going to be awful for our kids.

    Not a clue, but hopefully a W that carries over to the following week.

    The 12 package typically gives us 2 possessions a quarter. Sanford scored 52 on us several years ago. 18-14 uf
