"It's great to be a Florida Gator!" :wave:

[PIMking]

Umm we play LSU at home. and I didn't know Baton Rouge was in alabama...

[dredugator]

I'm not terribly thrilled about playing Bama. Ugh. The other games? Bring it on! Wait 'til you see what Brantley can do!
April 10 should be very exciting...

[HotlantaGator]

I'm not terribly thrilled about playing Bama. Ugh. The other games? Bring it on! Wait 'til you see what Brantley can do!
April 10 should be very exciting...

Bama's O will still be loaded, Ingram, Julio Jones, the QB, it will be very good....

..but Bama's D will have to be rebuilt next year, I think it loses its entire starting DL, and then Add arenas, mcClain (going early) and K jackson ( going early)...

Bama will be good next year, but so will will UF...

will probably be a high scoring game....

[co_gator89]

Not much to squeal about with this schedule, unlike last year. Of course, SOW and scUMmers will still find a way to whine about it. Bring it on. I'm really excited about Brantley.

[Bazza]

Looks do-able to me.....let's Go Gators! :taz:

[canadian_gator]

i cant decide what game to come down for... lsu or homecoming (miss st) ... suggestions?

keeping in mind i love to party lol

[GatorFanTx]

when do tickets go on sale for next seasons games? i want to buy early see if i can save a buck or two.

[ardentgator]

The typical whine is not going out of state to play ooc games.

[Pathfinder]

April 10. That just sucks. Can't go to the game unless it is after April 15 since tax season is our busiest time of the year. We really enjoyed going to the game last year and were already planning to go this year if it was after April 15. Oh well, at least this year we got to go to the first game, O & B game, and the last game, the Sugar Bowl.

[navybear]

i cant decide what game to come down for... lsu or homecoming (miss st) ... suggestions?

keeping in mind i love to party lol

Homecoming if you want to party and see us win... LSU if you want to just get drunk and see us win... either way is a win-win...

[adamgator96]

Well, if we lose to Bama...that game is early enough in the season that we could win out and then bet them in the SECCG. I'm in!

[gatorboy1982]

Its a couple of snoozers Applachian State? Why would we waste a slot on this game? Its a no win situation, becuase if we win were suppose to but if they pull a Michigan the results could be devastating.

[gatordee]

no wonder urban has health issues

[PIMking]

UGHHHH I was slated to be at the UF vs gumps and then go to gainesville for the LSU game but my sister decided thats a good weekend to get married. Damn it. I think I'm gonna force feed her some chocolate to get her fat so we can wait another month.

[g8rfan22]

Schedule looks ok...Is it September yet?

-Go Gators!!

[SkyChimp]

I think with Bama losing so much in the Defense and our stacked recruiting with returning offense, we should be okay for that match up even though we are playing in Alabama.

[GatorFanTx]

anyone know when tickets go on sale?

[CharlesUF09]

The real question is whether or not Alabama takes a step back on defense like we did in 07. If they do, that game is probably very winnable. I have a feeling that with John Brantley, a shoot out will be much more in our favor.

[GeauxGators05]

You need a new sister or a smarter brother in law to be.

[RayGator]

anyone know when tickets go on sale?

I'm not sure of the exact dates but GatorBoosters are sent mailings I think in March each year about ticket reorders. I think it's in the midSummer when general tickets become available. One place you can check from time to time about this is the official UF Athletics site:

www.GatorZone.com

Hope this helps.

Go Gators! :wave:

[diehardgator1]

Season tix just went on sale. Just received my order blank. They are for sale if anyone is interested. PM me

[ofmgator]

Gatorboy 1982 who do you think we should add to the scheule to replace App State and USF? Every major school starts out like this (some even more so). I suppose you haven't heard that we need to have at least seven home games and only teams not requiring a home and home are scheduled for that reason.

[gator1122]

Why do you guys think USF is a gimmie? I am honestly worried about that one. new qb beginning of the year.......

[mamag8ter]

I have already had a Georgia Bulldog fan tell me that Bama wins BtoB championship this year because they are not losing any major starters. I guess if his team is that bad, he has to crow about someone elses.

[john5220]

Not much to squeal about with this schedule, unlike last year. Of course, SOW and scUMmers will still find a way to whine about it. Bring it on. I'm really excited about Brantley.

Bama won the NC last year...and kept US from playing for a NC...I think that's SOMETHING to squeal about!

[247brother]

wow Bama and LSU in back to back weeks.......brutal

[RayGator]

wow Bama and LSU in back to back weeks.......brutal

You are so right! This schedule will be a big challenge!

Go Gators!

[BRNLUZR]

Good training for JB

[tebow15]

Why is everyone just assuming we are going to lose to Alabama next season. I think we are going UNDEFEATED! GO GATORS!!!

[Gators15]

Sat. Sept. 4th Miami-Ohio
Sat. Sept. 11th South Florida
Sat. Sept. 18th at Tennessee (Knoxville TN)
Sat. Sept. 25th Kentucky
Sat. Oct. 2nd at Alabama (Tuscaloosa AL)
Sat. Oct. 9th L.S.U.
Sat. Oct. 16th Mississippi State (Homecoming)
Sat. Oct. 30th Georgia (Jacksonville FL)
Sat. Nov. 6th at Vanderbilt (Nashville TN)
Sat. Nov. 13th South Carolina
Sat. Nov. 20th Appalachian State - Div. 1AA (Senior Day)
Sat. Nov. 27th at F.S.U. (Tallahassee FL)
Sat. Dec. 4th SEC Championship Game (Atlanta GA)

Alabama game, I believe that we must win them in order to up-rank and also beat them once again in the SECCG on my birthday that day for our BCSCG chance... and to satisfy our revenge!

LSU game at our field just a week after Alabama is sure quite tough as well.

South Florida and Appalachian St. are both interesting matches to see, rather better ones over weak threesome we played last season. Only one weak team, Miami-Ohio that even gets better than last season we had to play 3 weak teams.

[newdad]

We take it back from bama this year!
Rite it down!:joecool:

[bludigal]

UGHHHH I was slated to be at the UF vs gumps and then go to gainesville for the LSU game but my sister decided thats a good weekend to get married. Damn it. I think I'm gonna force feed her some chocolate to get her fat so we can wait another month.

I am confused, can't you just decline to attend the wedding? I mean seriously, poor planning on her part shouldn't create an emergency for you. I just don't get it. I know family gathering, blah, blah, blah. There is a reason schedules are posted well in advance is to prevent these types of conflicts.

You can go to dinner and dance with your sister and her husband another time. 2010 gators only play the 2010 Tigers once.

[Aardvark]

I say 2 losses at the most.

Except my sister is in Chicago...

I might just have to get sick that weekend and have to visit a doctor in Gainesville, Florida.

[supagator]

LSU is by far the best game to attend Canadiangator

[bludigal]

Except my sister is in Chicago...

I might just have to get sick that weekend and have to visit a doctor in Gainesville, Florida.

Seems like a much safer way of handling it. I wouldn't "really" advocate explaining to your sister the lack of importance of her wedding when compared to a football game. I think the ER in Gainesville is a much better explanation for your absence.

[PIMking]

The weird part about my family is that we are just not that close. So I really don't want to drive up to chicago for a wedding. Oh well.

[Aardvark]

Appy State is not a snoozer. Like you said. Michigan

[philnotfil]

Does anyone know when the spring practice schedule will be up? I looked on Gatorzone but didn't see anything about it.

[RayGator]

Good question. I've also have checked GZ and and can't find it listed. It has been in the past. I'm going to try and get the info and post it.

[supagator]

anyone know when tickets go on sale?

Call the gator ticket office!!

[dboirun]

guys, alabama will not even win the west next year. think about it, in the SEC defense wins championships, and last year they squeaked by on the tails of their defense even with a really good offense. now, they return most of the offense but lose some good linemen..and have to replace almost the entire defense. they will have a secondary worse than what we had in 07 and we will have one of our best passing attacks since the fun and gun. they beat us with matchups this year, they took advantage of the speed of our linebackers. now our linebackers faster and interior line should be stronger, these were our weaknesses against them. Brantley will have a field day on their secondary.

[jibmonk]

Call me crazy but I am very very happy that we don't have to play Arkansas or Auburn this year. First half of our schedule is brutal with LSU, Bama, USF and UT there.

[jailer]

I know Skip Holtz is the new Coach at South Florida. What can we expect from them? I have a gut feeling that we beat Bama at night in Tuscaloosa.

[TampaGatorFan]

USF is probably going to be tougher than most people think. I believe they lose Selvie and Pierre-Paul to the NFL, but BJ Daniels already has most of a season under his belt, so he's not your typical "rookie" QB. Gators overlook this one at their peril.

I think we will be way, way up for the Bama game...revenge is sweet...Gators win that one by 10.

[bcrews]

I see Miss St a or USF as potential upsets /wacky football.

[donnell12]

USF is always tough at the beginning of the season and usually fall off but we have seen what Skip Holtz can do at ECU now he has some real talent. As far as Bama goes it will be a tough win but a win for sure. I am excited about this season!!

[Bass2003]

We will win.

[ofmgator]

I was at SOS first game against Gene Stalling's Bama sitting in the "A" section of ex Bama players in Tuscaloosa.Shane Matthews and the Gators beat Bama something like 17-15 after Bama had a half time lead. A blocked kick resulted ina Gator TD and we went home a winner. The point being we can beat Bama there but if we are to lose one game it needs to be this one because we'd play them again in the SECCG and it's hard to baet a team twice in the season.

OFM: Excellent analysis and a nice little story too. I totally agree with your logic. :yes: Thanks for the post - rep to you Gator!

[RepubliGator84]

I like having USF on the schedule- unlike SOW we can put them in their place.

[GatorLaw]

I agree about USF. This will be their biggest regular season game in their history. FSU was big only because FSU still has a name but realistically everyone knew USF had a good chance of beating them. We're on an entirely different level and to say they'll be way up for our game is an understatement. I'd feel much more comfortable if we played them late in the season but coming early, while our new staff and players are still settling in and before they've taken their usual late season nose dive, makes it more worrisome to me than it otherwise would be.

[gatorsfan530]

Wow, interesting schedule to say the least.

That USF game is going to really be interesting on week 2 for sure.

I couldn't help but chuckle when I saw they have Miami (OH) on week 1, a good friend of mine is on that team, but I'll definitely still pull for my gators!!

[gatordee]

Home games really help out. Do you think UT has circled our game?

[TWGator]

Home games really help out. Do you think UT has circled our game?

They circle it, highlight it, cut it out and blow it up into posters...it doesn't matter. UT does not have the talent or experience to hang with us. Period. That program is down for at least a couple of years. And by "down", I mean Vol fans should be thrilled with 6-win seasons in '10 and '11.

[SkyChimp]

I see Miss St a or USF as potential upsets /wacky football.


USF is tring to place their mark on the Map like USC did in the PAC10. Gator Nation has a target on it's back because of who we are and people are going to be hungry to level us early . That is the same target Tebow is carrying into the NFL. I'm sure Urban is preparing for this like always. GO GATORS!!!

Muahahaha...... Miami-Ohio!! Isn't that a culinary school?!?! :-P That will look a lot like Charleston Southern from last season.

[gatorsfan530]

Muahahaha...... Miami-Ohio!! Isn't that a culinary school?!?! :-P That will look a lot like Charleston Southern from last season.

It's a pretty damn good school academically, but yes that game will turn out very ugly

[Gatorabe]

Ray - can you please post this on the "Schedules" tab for easier reference.

thanks

[hokieingville]

hey guys, I didn't want to make a separate thread about scrimmages.. but when is the next scrimmage? Wifey, kid and I would like to go. Thanks.

The next practice is Saturday, Aug. 21st. Sorry, I have not been able to find the time but all practices have been closed.

[RayGator]

Just found out that practice times are not made public.

[hokieingville]

wow, you are man of your word. Thank you for finding that out for me Ray. I'll use this thread to thank you for all the other threads I posted in lol.

[gatorjer]

anybody notice - or I might be wrong here - there is no bye week until the week before Georgia - that's pretty intense.

[GatorsRuleMyWorld]

I agree gatorjer, we could of used a bye week before Bama or LSU!
