1st meeting. USF figures to be much more excited for their battle with an established Florida school off of an FCS foe with a bye on deck. Florida has 5 SEC games on deck (incl Tennessee next week) and struggled last week vs Miami, Oh (outFD’d 16-12, ydg even 212-212). Last year USF was more excited than Florida St and in QB BJ Daniels’ 1st start they pulled the upset. The Bulls are the most experienced team in the Big East while Florida is one of the least experienced in the country (#111) and USF has the veteran QB while this is John Brantley’s (17-25-113, 2-0 ratio LW) 1st big game and he takes on a Holtz defense known for creating TO’s. Florida's offensive issues were masked by Tebow last year and they now continue to feel the effects of losing OC Dan Mullen. Florida gets the win but Gator fans will be on the edge of their seat into the 4Q.

PHIL’S FORECAST : FLORIDA 27 USF 17

Steele definitely is disappointed by us the past few years. I remember an issue or two ago of his preview mag, he was saying that USF was his surprise team. And we stunk that up pretty bad. Steele is pretty good though.

It all gets settled Saturday, I hate predictions.

BullMedic, you are right on and I agree with Steele, this game will have some challenges for UF and it will not be a cake walk.

This sounds about right.

If we get close to winning the refs will just pull and Arkansas on us.

How can he say we are the most experienced team in the Big East?? New coach, system, young players, etc....I just don't see it. I actually think we are a rather young team.

Probably just looked at our QB.

We were his surprise team the year we got to #2. He still counts that among his successes.

Good analysis and a score that sounds about right. That being said I hope he is wrong an we win 27 to 17.
