they played the clip of Saban from "Hey Coach" and all 3 thought it was a great motivational talk for the players and the fans alike.

Then they broke down the rest of the season, including the SECCG and how to beat BAMA. Talked about spreading our defense out and making the LBs and secondary play spaces. Said florida is the perfect team to do that.

Said oddsmakers ALREADY have us as an 8 point dog if both teams win out. And if we were to win the SECCG,they already have us as a minimum 7 point dog to any Big XII team. Interesting......not surprising, but interesting nonetheless.
Theoretically, I understand their point. Everyone thinks we are a big physical defense with moderate but not good or great speed. Therefore, if you spread us out then you can make plays on us in space. The problem with this thought process is we actually have very good team speed on defense.

Arkansas tried to spread us out and it was a disaster for them. Not comparing Ark. to UF but we have plenty of speed and discipline to play in space.

So, it just ain't gonna work, aight.
