It's understandable UF doesn't wanna leave when they lose to FCS teams in the Swamp.

It is also understandable why more Big 12 teams won't play UF in the Swamp after beating OSU 50-7.

Check the dates man, it's ancient fucking history. I'm more worried about going to Central Michigan than I would be about the Swamp...Georgia Southern...Georgia Southern...

The Big XII didn't even exist then...

I was at that game.

Unfortunately, I can't refute that statement. I think it's going to be ugly this year for UF.
The easy part of the schedule: New Mex St(H), ECU(H), Florida Atlantic(H), Vanderbilt(H), and Kentucky(A) (we beat them at home in overtime last year).

UF plays Tenn(H), Mississippi(H), Missouri(A), LSU(A), UGa(Jax), South Carolina (A) and FSU(H). I don't see many wins here!

Most schools want to do a home and home. Why should any school agree to go to "the Swamp" so Florid can get the huge payday and the other school gets absolutely nothing in return, just so they can appease a school who is afraid to fly?

I agree teams want home and homes but it also seems like A lot of SEC schools don't want to comply with that. They either want a home game or neutral site. The PAC and Big have been very open to home and homes. tOSU didnt shy away from a home and home with USC,Mich State went home and home with Oregon,Boise State went home and home with Oregon etc.... I would have liked to see a home and home with Bama but I'm t excited they at least signed on for a neutral site game with SC

Question - is that the "Top 5" at the time of the game, or final season ranking?

Yes, and a half century of Florida State crying! Wah, wah, wah.


You take jabs at UF way too seriously. Take a Zanax or something before you blow a gasket.

Umm. No. Two words. Washington Huskies. 12-0 record trumps even 1 loss FSU.

Yes, but FSU would have had a re-match with Miami. Whether that would have been enough???

The latest data is IMHO the best data. I only use the final season rankings for past seasons.

I do think its funny that Florida gets a hard time for not leaving the state for OOC games but I have to admit I don't blame them.

1. It really hasn't ever hurt them.
2. It is much easier on the team from a travel standpoint.
3. Closer to your fanbase.
4. Keeps all the money in the state.

Personally I think OOC games away are a good idea for expanding brand awareness and for recruiting purposes but if they don't want to take advantage of those opportunities so be it.

It think it should be mandatory to play 2 home games and 2 away OOC, for pussy conferences that don't play 9 conference games

My response in one word: Hoey! Not all P5 conferences are equal!
