... and just crown Florida champions. At least that is what the Mark Schlabach of ESPN seems to think.
I know Florida is going to be good, but to make statements like these is ridiculous:
"The Gators are going to win the SEC East in 2009. And it's not even going to be close.
It's up to the Gators to determine how difficult it's going to be. "
and
"The SEC East is nothing more than a formality for Florida. The Gators are going to end up where they start the season -- on top of the division. "
This is the SEC, where one slip up can cost you a division title and we all know that being the best team does not automatically make you the champion. (See the Where's the Hardware posts by Bubba and Earl for further proof.)
