Can you imagine FIU has Bama in the begining of the season and UF at the end. WOW nothing like a speeding bullet to the groin. Bama looses 9 guys I think UF looses 12 :P

Yeah but the SEC teams rise and fall so quickly. Look at Arkansas. LSU was down 31-3 against Troy a season after being National Champions.

UF will still be out of the question but Alabama may get a little more than they bargained for if FIU can step it up over the preseason.

Florida plays Troy in '09 too, App State (!) and USF in 2010, then us again in 2011.
