Our preseason forecast indicated Florida had a shot to test LSU last week, but injuries (Brantley and Demps) pretty much circumvented that possibility. The real key part of the equation was not having the Demps information earlier in the week as it cost us a web selection. Obviously, Muschamp has learned well from the habits of Little Nicky. The Tigers defense held the Florida offense to 9 first downs 213 yards in total offense. In the SEC, there is not much you can do with that type performance, ditto a 41-11 LSU win! At home last week the Vols thought their night time affair would turn out to be a sweet UPSET, but Georgia won out 20-12. The disturbing issue within the encounter was the minus 20 yards rushing formulated by the young Vols. They forged a decent 290 yards through the air. But, in the second-half QB Tyler Bray was 0-6 in third down situations with 91 yards throwing the football. To add insult to injury the youngster has been lost to injury for at least six-weeks. Last year, UT lost a difficult game to LSU in Baton Rouge, because they had too many men on the field on the last play of the game. On the very next snap, the now New England Patroits running back Steven Ridley crossed the goal line for an LSU win 16-14. So, Saturday would have served as a huge UPSET ANGLE before Bray went down. Personally, I don’t have much confidence in second-string QB Matt Simms of Tennessee. Add, LSU has probably the fastest defense in American ranked #5 by the NCAA allowing 285 yards per game and 3.85 yards per play, so you can imagine how difficult the game will become for Simms and the Vols. The Tigers bullish running attack should pretty much control the tempo of the game and their new weapon punter Brad Wingo will help with field position all day.
