I about choked on my coffee when Lee Corso said this on ESPN this morning, he acted like UC won't be able to score and said they would only get a couple of TD's late when the 3rd string is in and that Florida would score multiple times on D. He was sitting there doing the gator chomp while the rest of the crew said he was wrong.

Corso has hated on UC all year. Worse than Herbstreit. -
I don't think Florida can score 49 points. They're offense isn't that good. They very well may score in the 30s, though, as Cincinnati's defense is average, at best.Comment

I saw that as well. Corso is a p r ick. However, Herbie said that UC may well win this game if they stay focused. That was a huge shocker.Comment

That's because you should never discount a team that knows how to win and knows how to score. The only game with adversity Florida played in, they lost. Cincinnati happened to win every game, even the ones they struggled in.In loving memory, I will be a fan for both of us.

I don't understand the hate on the UC defense. Yes they gave up points this past month but look how good they were the whole 3/4 of the season. They held some pretty potent offenses to 20 or less. With nearly a month to regroup, get healthy, and rest up a little I think the defense will come out inspired and be more like they were at the beginning of season. I wouldn't be surprised to see the winning team with a score in the upper 20's..Comment

I would be very surprised if UC was held in the twenties.In loving memory, I will be a fan for both of us.

During the Northwestern/Auburn game, Chris Speilman said that a UC win would "be among the biggest upsets in college football history"...
The 3rd ranked team beats the 5th ranked teams and its one of the biggest upsets in history haha
I wonder where Speilman went to school....

Look at it this way-no matter what happens, we're still in a better spot than we were a year ago:
Scenario 1, UF destroys us. We don't lose any respect because nobody really respects us anyway, we get a bit of a pass b/c of the BK/coaching carousel factor, in addition to the win-one-for-Urban factor, and we dispel the myth that we don't travel well. Worst case scenario, but still not a terrible outcome.
Scenario 2, we lose a competitive game. We gain some respect, plus dispelling the travel myth.
Scenario 3, we win. We have an undefeated season, gain a lot of national respect (even though there will still be haters), dispel the travel myth, and take a ton of momentum into next season.
I badly want the 'cats to win, but I really feel like the fact we are even here is really what the big deal is. The game is the game, win or lose. But we went undefeated and are playing in the Sugar Bowl. And to think, 4 years ago lots of us fans were thrilled to be going to the International Bowl. It's important not to lose perspective and keep things in the big picture.Comment

Biggest key will be Pike with pressure. If we are in 5 receiver sets then Florida is going to blitz at will. Pike will need to get rid of ball quick.Comment
