So talking on the betting line because Bama smoked the line last night over ND is that a bigger win?
How about when Ole Miss smoked Texas Tech by 30 or something in 2008? I believe tech was favored by like 7 and lost by a ton? Is that a bigger BCS upset because the underdog blew the spread so bad?
Nope I don't bet on the Gators, A I hate when they lose, B have trouble being objective enough when it comes to the Gators and $ is at stake

Definitely not an expert, (just a gator mom), but here's my question re: the thread.
As we were watching last nights game (Bama v ND), I couldn't help but compare us vs. either Bama. To my uneducated eyes, I saw Bama pass all night long in a variety of ways. This complimented their running game.
In contrast, it has been since 2010 (Gator mom since 2006 when we started following UF football) to my uneducated eyes that any kind of successful passing game has been present at Florida.
How is this at UF? Is it the Offensive Coordinator (3 of them), the head coach (Meyer or Mushchamp), the quarterback (Brantley, Burton, Reed, Brissett, Driskel), the wide receivers and tight ends, the O-Line, or not recruiting the type of players needed to be able to execute pass plays?
Or is it too many revolving doors in all the above positions?

It is part of the learning curve and I believe him when Mushchamp says this will never happen again.

In a word ^^^THIS^^^
4 OC's in 5 yrs,
Weak recruiting on the Offensive side for 5 yrs, with a few "sure things" that sure weren't.
Lack of stable coaching staff (esp under Meyer's last 2 yrs)
