They lost all of those battles.

Lagway definitely tested the receiving ability of LSU's secondary.

Just did a bit of a deep dive into the forecast for Saturday afternoon in Gainesville. Thunderstorms are definitely a concern, but they should be somewhat scattered and moving through. So while there's a chance for a lightning delay, I doubt it would last hours. And although it may rain some during the game, it is very unlikely to be raining for a majority of the game. Things may start to clear out some toward evening.

Regarding winds, the overall setup between two pressure systems favors strong winds. But some of the latest high resolution models are indicating more modest winds of 10-15 mph. So who knows. 

In summary, fuck ou.

Did you find a good source for a deeper dive and if so mind sharing to follow updates?  Flying down tomorrow night.  We got solid free tix through contact but if weather looks likely to be a shitshow with  lightning delays might pony up for club seats to ride it out inside.

Yeah, me. I’m a meteorologist. 

Even better.  Appreciate it and let us know if any meaningful updates if you don't mind!

I'm looking forward to seeing what Mosley can do. Hopefully he makes a couple of big plays, including a catch over a DB on a 50/50 ball, to give the WR room a spark and Arch some more confidence to boot.

Road teams with mentally fragile QBs don't historically have a good road record in the SEC.

You should log off the internet. Isn’t the betting line like -5.5? Most of America thinks Napier is getting fired

Yeah that's just not true. The country has seen Florida embarrass itself on national TV three times already this season in back-to-back-to-back weeks.

You’re confusing “thinks they will win” with “wants them to win”

Even if Muhammad doesn't play, we have Littleton. Talk is he can play CB depending on who's out. If so, Wardell Mack will play safety.

We have a lot of dudes all over the secondary who can play. I'm not sure Black and Littleton at corner is a step down from Manny and Guilbeau.

Is there somewhere that I can bet on a Texas -20 money line? I would do that.

I think you mean -20 on the spread. Most sportsbooks have alternate spreads. Fan Duel has Texas -19.5 for +440.

Kinda sorta seems like we have two true freshmen who are already pushing Guilbeau at corner. To say nothing of Kobe Black, and MM when healthy, obviously. Guilbeau needs to be back at star pretty soon IMO.

I’m just pointing out what most socials and podcasts outside the Texas bubble are saying. They believe this will be Napier’s last stand, and honestly, a lot of them already don’t think we’re that good to begin with.

 

What I don’t get is how they act like Lagway is the only QB capable of breaking out of a slump, but Arch can’t improve or turn things around. That logic  makes what @Js1 said make a lot of sense. Ppl praying on Texas downfall.

Uh.....

Our own "fans" on Surly seem to agree on this.  Every CFB team in Surly's eyes is going to get better over the course of the season, but Texas and Arch will only get worse.

I think it's a total mixed bag as nobody knows what to expect out of either offense.   The consensus on Dusty and Danny Sirius XM this AM (including a guest they had on) was that they trusted Arch more than Lagway.  Dusty liked Texas to cover and Danny leaned that way ass well taking the first half under but thought if we could get a meaningful lead in the 2nd half Florida might just collapse.   Of course I've seen the opposite take this week as well.  I don't think anyone knows what to make of Texas which is fair because frankly I don't either.  Such a weird schedule to start the season.

Weird game. Texas defense > Florida defense. Oddly I think most would say that only advantage Texas offense has over the Florida Offense is at QB. (OL is an argument, Florida has more potential, but has not played well)

I feel like getting Mosley back will help more than is being talked about. He gets open and catches the ball, which is something we can use right now assuming our QB can put the ball on him.

Hasn’t actually felt like football season yet.  It’s weird. 

The Ohio St game felt like an NFL preseason game. The three games after felt like scrimmages.

Yeah, the unending, ever-loving hype for game 1, three straight scrimmages over speed bumps and a bye week

I am kind of jealous of the SEC teams who get to start the conference season during weeks 2/3.

Our 2026 schedule would be a lot cooler if it went something like: 

Texas State (home)
Ohio State (home)
SEC opener (road)
Bye
UTSA (home)
Rest of SEC schedule

That first bye after non-conf play and before SEC play just feels like a weird pause between seasons.

Bobby made a comment this morning that he is expecting something like 10-15 snaps for Mosley

2 things:

1. Livingstone and Moore are both over 70% completions per target (Believe Moore is around 80%)

2. Mosley's biggest benefit maybe getting the screen going. It is has been a missing this year. I have not seen him block, but his size should amke him a capable blocker.

(take with a large grain of salt since our schedule has been so poor)

Now that would be an absolute ass whooping and really turn heads, even if it's "just Florida".

But I think a 27-13 is more in line.

There's two narratives that I've seen pushed that favor Florida:

1. Bounce back game and it's a team with their backs against the wall. Florida is the team with "nothing to lose" and will play fast and loose. Klatt or someone else mentioned that Billy always seems to have a game where they just ball out and win before regressing. 

2. Texas has OU next week, which makes this road trip a typical "trap game." We also blew them out last year, so Texas won't be as up for the game.

Not saying I necessarily agree with those takes, but that's what's out there. 

Anyway here is my favorite prediction from the Gators subreddit on the game:

Quote

3-2 both QBs throw 4 INT’s and the only scores are on arch running out the back of the endzone and their kicker hitting a 15 yard FG after they stalled out inside the 5

The only problem is that Helobious put the fucking jinx on us with his foolish prediction so now we are guaranteed a communist struggle session of a game.  We need Arch to take the gimmes when they are available.  Quinn was good at that.
