Ok, here’s a good question. What do you expect of the Gators this season? It looks like it’s shaping up to be to our advantage. Georgia doesn’t have a quarterback, yet. LSU is returning one starter from last season. A&M has lost a couple of offensive leaders. Ole Miss has a new coach with no spring practice. Missouri is having difficulties. Kentucky is a home game. Arkansas has a new coach, and we play them at home. Vanderbilt... well, Vanderbilt. Tennessee is there on December 5th. They have plenty of time to fail before they get us. We don’t play Alabama, Auburn, or Mississippi State. What am I missing? 10-0?
