Alabama, LSU and Clemson lead the way in 1-128 projected 2016 rankings

Always enjoy reading these this guy does good work IMO

Edit- Agree with the Washington love very sneaky "sleeper" that can make moves this season

If this time next season my Gators are coming off a season where they finished 3rd in the East and 19th in the nation, my emotions would be split. I personally expect us to take a step back defensively due to our DL losing A-Mac and Bullard our two best lineman as well as Antonio Morrison so that wouldn't shock me. I fully expect us to be better offensively but HOW much better obviously remains to be seen. It would set up a 2017 season where anything but a playoff berth is a bust. 2017 was always my target year for us.

Only game I can really call an L off top is at FSU but who knows in rivalry games. I see no more than 3 losses on the schedule all things considered which looks about like 19th range. After last season I will never count UF out especially if yall get anything from QB position.

at Tennessee
LSU
"at" Georgia
at Arkansas
at FSU

Could lose all 5 of those games tbh but if they can go 2-3, and finish the reg season with 3 losses, i'm good. Nobody else on the schedule will beat us in the regular season so our season comes down to these 5 games. Going to Arkansas RIGHT after the UGA game is going to be tough because our DL is small on size, the team going to be coming off a HUGE rivalry game the weekend before against UGA, and we KNOW Arkansas is going to line it up and run plus 35 times. It's ALL the makings of a road L for us :mjcry:

I think Tennessee,Arkansas and FSU would be the 3 L's off that list LSU vs UF games are always coin flips. Arkansas gets clowned on but they a tough matchup you gonna get beat up playing them and coming off a rivalry game vs UGA and having to go there is WOAT type of scheduled games.

Your bums finally played with pride after Michigan State punked yall in ya building. Before that moment yall sleepwalked thru the season cause guys cared more about the draft than the season.

Yall destroyed Michigan and ND because of pride.
But you said they were looking forward to the draft :heh:.
Draft>>>>>>pride

That's a lofty statement considering the HC and the way the CFP works.

We'll have a chance to make a statement in (another) revenge game to start the season against Michigan in Texas and then we get UT and FSU at home and the biggest road game will be on the road against LSU. Team will be LOADED and experienced and hopefully we don't have much coaching turnover (plllllease hold on to Randy Shannon). At some point we're going to have to dream big and 2017 is that year
