Firstly, Texas should be unranked after this loss. They have now lost to two straight unranked teams in back to back weeks. Secondly, Texas is in real trouble based on their upcoming schedule. They still have to play versus Ole Miss, versus Mississippi State, @ Missouri, @ LSU, and @ Texas A&M. A&M might end the season worse than 8-4 but it would be funny as hell to see Texas go 8-4 or worse.

Unranking a top 10 Texas team two years in a row would be funny.

Beating Texas in Austin after losing 2 straight blowouts is the most Florida football shit ever

5

u/darthspurrier Florida Gators 44m ago

2 straight blowouts to the conference powerhouses of Mizzou and South Carolina too. This conference is just madness and chaos lol

with a backup, first start, QB

u/Dry_Car_1568 Florida Gators • Team Chaos 1h ago

This is the exact reason why I picked us to win this game, because it would be hilarious and we had a shot

2

u/Ytee3 Oklahoma Sooners • Ohio State Buckeyes 9m ago

With a back up qb

u/irregular_stork Oklahoma Sooners 2h ago

Alternatively, let's put Florida at #6

u/Wide-Nerve8655 Oregon Ducks • Pac-10 1h ago

Florida needs to be simultaneously unranked and in the top 10. What is this team

161

u/xmjm424 Florida Gators • Team Meteor 1h ago

Unranked Florida is a top ten team, ranked Florida is an unranked team.

16

u/SimCFB Florida Gators 1h ago

True

Keep us unranked.

This nonsense statement has so much truth in it

I just call that balanced football

Schödinger’s Florida. They suck and are great at the same time.

That's just the essence of the state.

Goddamn you can't deny this logic

The Florida paradox. I never thought that football would be the reason the state got one, but here we are.

u/titanium_hydra Virginia Tech • Nebraska 1h ago

I feel like this says more about top ten teams than what it says about Florida

u/LionPutrid4252 Texas A&M • Oklahoma State 1h ago

Better version of 2022 Texas A&M.  We had an overall losing record, but winning record against top 10 ranked teams

1

u/Lurky-Lou 1h ago

What in the monkey’s paw. Winning amazing battles and losing the war.

Did the team develop and cohere late in the season? Injured players returned?

8

u/RonMexico13 Florida Gators 1h ago

Shrödinger's ranked team.

1

u/SST114 Miami Hurricanes 1h ago

Bi polar... but yeah back in the T20 via 2 top 10 wins at the time. Also what if they win out from here? 😅

1

u/irregular_stork Oklahoma Sooners 42m ago

I mean, if they go 10-2 they'll deserve to be in the playoffs at that point.

u/butterhorse Alabama Crimson Tide 58m ago

Florida is the new Auburn

They're better being unranked it seems

Leave us unranked, PLEASE

u/BigHeadDeadass South Carolina • Auburn 1h ago

What idiot scheduled 3 away games in a row?

21

u/BillyBobChorton Georgia Bulldogs 1h ago

Texas had a weak schedule their first 2 years in the SEC.  Now the gloves are off

3

u/pineywoods200 Texas Longhorns 1h ago

They played 3/5 SEC playoff teams last year and a 10 win Vanderbilt…

2

u/JohnHammerfall Texas Tech Red Raiders • USC Trojans 1h ago

Another hypothetical win for the SEC. Those “playoff teams” didn’t win a single playoff game that wasn’t against G5 or another SEC school.

2

u/pineywoods200 Texas Longhorns 18m ago

Lol okay tech. I was replying to a guy saying texas had a weak SEC schedule 

-3

u/Hefty-Ambassador5661 USC Trojans 1h ago

Yeah SEC has had a really pathetic showing last year considering they had more teams in the playoffs than any other conference and lost most of them except when playing against each other and a g5 team

6

u/VendettaVera Arkansas Razorbacks • USC Trojans 1h ago

They do play Arkansas at home in the middle of that. 

27

u/Lost-Protection-5655 Texas Longhorns • Red River Shootout 1h ago

Not only that, the final score of both games was 27-24. It’s uncanny. At least the Spurs season is beginning soon

u/emoney_gotnomoney Texas A&M Aggies 1h ago

*sees Texas flair:

“I hate this guy.”

*says he’s a spurs fan:

“I like this one 🤝”

God if Kentucky gets ANOTHER 35-37 win the script writers need to be fired

u/BrilliantArm5914 Missouri Tigers 49m ago

at least tax season ended October 15th, so many extended returns

u/master248 Texas A&M Aggies 47m ago

I’m still nervous about playing the Thunder again

u/master248 Texas A&M Aggies 1h ago

Somehow, I think we’re still gonna lose to Texas lol. I wanna be wrong on this though

5

u/dub47 Texas Longhorns • Red River Shootout 57m ago

First ever Lone Star Showdown with two teams playing without QBs. It’ll be quite the show.

7

u/Nearby_Valuable_5467 Penn State • Arizona State 1h ago

Guaranteed win over MSU, the rest toss-ups

8

u/astrothemorkie LSU Tigers • USC Trojans 1h ago

I like MSU but they looked like shit today

9

u/idnttcrisis Georgia Bulldogs • Texas A&M Aggies 1h ago

MSU with Kamario Taylor is a few tiers above MSU without Kamario Taylor. But turf toe is a lingering injury and I’m not even sure if he’ll play in two weeks.

2

u/astrothemorkie LSU Tigers • USC Trojans 1h ago

Yeah he would have feasted on our defense

5

u/wheezymustafa Arkansas Razorbacks 1h ago

Hey don’t forget, they have to play us too 😅

u/rb1242 Texas Longhorns 1h ago

We are home vs Ole Miss

2

u/idnttcrisis Georgia Bulldogs • Texas A&M Aggies 1h ago

Good catch, corrected now!

2

u/LasixSteroidsAbx Georgia Bulldogs • Virginia Cavaliers 1h ago

I think Texas wins those games. They did this last year and then kicked it up in the back half.

1

u/GilgarTekmat Texas Longhorns • Texas State Bobcats 1h ago

Not unless we bench Arch we don't. Especially now with Simmons looking to be out for a while.

2

u/LasixSteroidsAbx Georgia Bulldogs • Virginia Cavaliers 1h ago edited 1h ago

They cant bench him. Arch is not a fast processor but he is a pretty good thrower of the ball. Oklahoma beat you bc your Offensive line play was awful and that really impacts Arch bc he needs lots of time.

1

u/GilgarTekmat Texas Longhorns • Texas State Bobcats 1h ago

I mean they can bench him, they just won't. He isn't just a slow processor, he consistently makes the wrong reads. dudes are wide open or about to be wide open and he takes sacks or throws into coverage every time. Even with infinite time, he still threw that ball into double coverage today that should have been picked, when he could have jogged up field for 10+ yards easily.

2

u/Corgi_Koala Ohio State Buckeyes 1h ago

It's absolutely criminal how Sark has taken one of the greatest draft prospects of all time from the most legendary quarterback family in football and turned him into like a fifth round pick.

2

u/seamusApoacalypse Oklahoma Sooners 43m ago

The Ohio st and Tennessee wins are probably going to keep Texas ranked this week.

1

u/shifty1032231 Texas Longhorns • Colorado Buffaloes 1h ago

7-5 season with a mid bowl incoming!

1

u/KingInDaNorf34 Texas A&M Aggies • Houston Cougars 1h ago

Well, probably better than us at least lol

1

u/mechajlaw Nebraska Cornhuskers • Arkansas Razorbacks 1h ago

It's a quality loss though. Florida beat Texas after all.

1

u/THAWED21 Oklahoma Sooners • SMU Mustangs 1h ago

What about a world where the Thanksgiving game denies Texas a bowl game?

1

u/wavyboizzz Texas Longhorns 1h ago

I’m actually begging them to unrank us

We are gonna lose to OU and A&M in the same year for the first time since 2010

u/kchessh Texas A&M Aggies 37m ago

I don’t think you understand how bad we are. We have gotten crushed in our games. Yall have struggled but we are awful

HEY don't forget about Arkansas!

u/BostonYankeesBB 50m ago

Well Florida will be ranked so it'll be a quality loss and Texas will drop to like 24

0

u/ganner Kentucky Wildcats 43m ago

Be objective and don't over-weight recency. A 4-2 team with wins over #4 Ohio State and #14 Tennessee is not worthy of dropping from the top 25. They should take a tumble in the polls but you're overstating it.

1

u/dfphd Texas Longhorns 10m ago

Firstly, Texas should be unranked after this loss

Is this supposed to be a hot take? If anyone ranks us take their ballot away. And maybe their car keys too

1

u/Big_Truck Virginia Cavaliers • Auburn Tigers 9m ago

Texas is almost certain to miss the CFP. And heads should roll.

While the blame game will be Sark vs Arch, it’s probably “both.” As in, dump both and find a HC who can bring a “plug and play” QB1 next year.

u/Any-Establishment-15 Texas A&M Aggies • Elon Phoenix 6m ago

Worse than 8-4 would be great. Worse than 4-8 is more likely

1

u/vannawhite_power Texas A&M Aggies 1h ago

Brother- we are 100% ending the season at 8-4 or worse. Take the under on that number.

4

u/Budget-Ocelots 1h ago

It doesn’t matter if you are 5-7, but if that W is against Texas, a lot will be forgiven.

u/idnttcrisis Georgia Bulldogs • Texas A&M Aggies 1h ago

Just use KJ Edwards in the wildcat!
