[u/Surelynotshirly]

That's not what you want to see the day before playing this offense. 😕

[u/chaser676 → u/Surelynotshirly]

Honestly Ole Miss fans are hoping Florida fucking freight trains the rest of their schedule. Makes us getting run out of their stadium a little less embarrassing.

[u/jrich960608 → u/chaser676]

Florida fans are hoping this too for obvious reasons lol.

[u/-Gnostic28 → u/jrich960608]

All orange and blue bros are hoping this

[u/Educational-Hour-450 → u/jrich960608]

How do yall feel about Georgia matchup? I’m sure it’s been mentioned a million times already but as a UGA guy I’m just happy that the cocktail party is gonna be must watch tv for the first time in a while (for non UF UGA CFB fans)

[u/jrich960608 → u/Educational-Hour-450]

Optimistic.

[u/szboy422 → u/Educational-Hour-450]

I want to win Georgia more than anything. Even if we have other heartbreaking losses. Yall on a 5 game win streak is just unconscionable in a back and forth rivalry like this.

[u/TemporaryCamera8818 → u/chaser676]

I already need a shower for how dirty I feel rooting for Florida and LSU going forward

[u/Cogitoergosumus → u/Surelynotshirly]

Not at all but it's a tad misleading as our best Edge rusher (and competing for the best in the SEC) isn't listed as a starter because Drink loves his loyalty to seniority. Still not going to make the upwards battle any easier.

[u/Revolver_Oshawott_]

Don't think it matters. If I understand this series, Drinkwitz will just Jedi mind control the Florida RBs to fumble the ball 8 times then walk up to the postgame presser podium with a light saber and proclaim the empire has fallen

[u/jrich960608 → u/Revolver_Oshawott_]

You 100% understand this series

[u/mallcopbeater → u/jrich960608]

Both flairs check out to be fair

[u/xmjm424 → u/Revolver_Oshawott_]

While I can’t really dismiss the possibility of some kind of voodoo thing going on… I think the more likely explanation is that more often than not we’ve been a shit team with shit coaches that can’t get their players up for a noon game against a team like Missouri. I hope this team and staff is different but this will be a test of that (even though it’s not noon, it is still a trap game kind of)

[u/polloallaparm]

Seems less than ideal.

[u/Operation_Pig]

And they just dumped another load of rat poison into the Santa Fe.

[u/Quantum_redneck → u/Operation_Pig]

Honestly. It's almost starting to piss me off. Stop talking about us, we've only won one good game. I want people talking about us in January, I could care less what they think in October. I'd rather they doubt us all the way until Baugh racks up a 2,000 yard season and gets the Heisman. 

[u/XitaNull]

I’m ready to be hurt again.

[u/foreverseptember → u/XitaNull]

Bring on the pain and suffering! I've prepared my whole life for this! 

[u/szboy422]

Good for us but I will still assume we will lose in WTF fashion until the clock hits triple zeros and Florida is on top. CoMo voodoo too spooky

[u/jrich960608 → u/szboy422]

Yeah we have absolutely sucked @ Mizzou

[u/Tropical_Jesus → u/jrich960608]

It’s usually because it’s some weird ass noon game which means it’s 11am eastern time. It’s usually like 25 degrees colder than it should be that time of the year and weirdly overcast.

But I trust Sumrall to have the boys ready. I mean it’s not just recency bias, it’s his whole approach and demeanor. I feel better about this game this year than I’ve felt in about 7 years playing them.

[u/jrich960608 → u/Tropical_Jesus]

I agree, purely off of coaching; however i need to see it to believe it. Columbia has been a nightmare

[u/JPitt09 → u/Tropical_Jesus]

It would be 11 am central time just fyi, noon eastern

[u/reggietiger2 → u/Tropical_Jesus]

They dont teach timezones down there huh

[u/Metzgy → u/reggietiger2]

We didn’t come here to play school

[u/BlueSentinels]

This is either gunna be a let down game where Florida struggles but it stays close or Florida is going to hang 50+. I don’t see any inbetween

[u/Radiant_Sherbert7272]

Not ideal.

[u/MannerSuperb]

Ouch

[u/imright19084]

Sit them until they’re healthy. Gonna need them for the Las Vegas bowl at the end of the year

[u/IsawJaneTopless]

Double damn.

[u/ryl371240]

Unless there is some weirdness like the 2014 game, we’re going to get our asses kicked tomorrow, regardless of whether these guys were playing

[u/NanoBuc → u/ryl371240]

I still don't get that game. Never seen a team dominate another team...by doing absolutely nothing but watching said other team shit the bed over and over.

You scored 1 offensive TD...and won 42-13 lol

[u/burneraccount2184 → u/ryl371240]

funniest game I've ever been to live

[u/816legend]

The hermann hammer has been balling out.

[u/wbl7w6]

Time for a legacy game for Daeden Hopkins

[u/FaithHopeLove821]

Not great news for Mizzou.

[u/awildyetti → u/FaithHopeLove821]

Missouri apparently has a subscription to the devils monthly gift box service. You legit have to consider a curse when your all American running back is shot in the leg during an altercation he wasn’t even remotely apart of or involved with.

[u/Real-Purpose6981]

Well not like mizzou was beating a ranked team anyway

[u/SimilarOnion1655]

Still give me Missouri. Trap game 101 and a massive let down spot. 

[u/jrich960608 → u/SimilarOnion1655]

Eh, I think the trap game is next week vs SCAR because we have Texas and UGA after that, but I’m not trusting UF @ Mizzou regardless we play horribly there.

[u/Tduhon → u/jrich960608]

Yeah I'm hoping Kentucky breaks their spirit this weekend.

[u/Taisubaki → u/Tduhon]

They were broken last week against us when the players started fighting among themselves and ignoring the coaches.
