Of coarse Kentucky is better then VT!!
They’re in the sec you dumb sob’s. The sec is where everything is better.
Being toothless is better than dentures. Old jeans magically turn into jorts.
Trailers are luxurious and chewing tobacco is a healthy daily staple like bacon and 2 liter sodas filled with peanuts. Who needs college and health Insurance when you have saban, icy hot and percocets. SEC SEC SEC!!

The SEC effect.
The worst SEC team will always come out of the calculator better than the best team in any other conference.

No one in the sec knows what Ti-83 is. They might think it’s a lift kit for an old Silverado.

What we do and don't know, two Saturdays into 2018
The reclamation project at Florida is going to take longer than expected, which you could have spotted if you didn’t get blinded by a bunch of touchdown passes against Charleston Southern. Sure, Dan Mullen shouldn’t have been the first Florida coach to lose to Kentucky since Galen Hall in 1986. Florida plays Mullen $6 million a year to win every game. But the practical reality is that Mullen inherited a team that is much more similar in terms of talent to Kentucky than it is to Alabama or Georgia, and he’s going to need a little while to correct that.
On Saturday, the Gators and Wildcats looked about equal in talent with one glaring exception: Kentucky had a dynamic quarterback in Terry Wilson. Wilson started his career at Oregon, but he transferred to Garden City (Kan.) Community College when it became clear he wasn’t passing Justin Herbert on the depth chart. He could play 2017 at the juco and then play for a new school in 2018 instead of sitting out ’17 and playing this season. Kentucky recruited Wilson hard for most of last season. Nebraska jumped in when Scott Frost, who had recruited Wilson at Oregon, took the job in Lincoln. Within a week of taking the Florida job, Mullen also offered Wilson. But before Wilson could take a scheduled official visit to Florida, he committed to the Wildcats on an official visit to Lexington.
The bottom line is that for the Gators to be what they want to be, they can’t be comparable to Kentucky in terms of talent. They need to be comparable to Alabama, Georgia or Auburn. But to do that, they’ll have to start beating out those schools for recruits. At the moment, that isn’t happening. And Saturday showed how much Florida fell in terms of talent during the Jim McElwain era. The Will Muschamp recruits—who kept the Gators afloat with a dominant defense—are gone, meaning injuries could be crippling. Cornerback Marco Wilson, the younger brother of Muschamp-era signee and 2017 second-round pick Quincy Wilson, tore his ACL Saturday night and will be lost for the season. Three years ago, Florida could have just plugged in another future early-round pick. That isn’t the case anymore.
Mullen said something pretty telling after Kentucky broke its 31-game losing streak against Florida with a 27–16 win in Gainesville. “What if we hit a Hail Mary on the last play?” Mullen asked rhetorically during his press conference. “We’d still have the same issues and problems.”
This was an interesting way to put it, because it describes the end of last year’s Florida win over Tennessee. After that game, I wrote that other than a bomb at the end of the game that found its target, there wasn’t a ton of difference between where Jim McElwain’s Florida team was compared to Butch Jones’s Tennessee team. Sure enough, neither one finished last season coaching.
The prevailing wisdom in the SEC was that Tennessee’s Jeremy Pruitt had taken the toughest job, Mississippi State’s Joe Moorhead had taken the most ready-made job and Mullen had taken the job best positioned for long-term success. That success will only happen if Mullen pulls Florida out of a talent hole. We’ll see on Sept. 22 when the teams play, but Florida’s trip to Knoxville could show that the job Mullen took and the job Pruitt took aren’t that different.

The B1Ge started using that logic a couple of years ago too. "BUT WE HAVE TO PLAY PENN ST, MSU, UM, and OSU all in the same year. THAT IS WHY WE NEVER FINISH UNDEFEATED". So why have you not scored a point in the playoffs in the last 3 seasons? Why did MSU almost lose to Utah St and Penn St almost lost to Appy? Why did UM get spanked by an overrated ND team?

When in doubt choose "all of the above." That's how to get a degree in Gaynesville anyways.

Until you've walked through the swamp on a moonlit night holding the pocket of your cousin's jorts, you can't possibly know.

Got it. There are no rules. The rules change to fit their purpose at any given time.

DBU = Douche Bag U ... so YES THEY ARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And ****, they should not be comparing themselves to something as beautiful, majestic, and ahead of it's time as the Titanic. Perhaps maybe the Minnow is a little more appropriate.

There’s only one school that could argue that and it’s LSU...and it’s still not a good argument.
