Sorry, this popular, childishly superstitious theme about Florida being in Tennessee's head is crap

I've seen it over and over again from Volquest staff, national sports analysts, fans on this site, fans of rivals, etc. Bottom line: Florida's 11 year win streak has nothing at all to do with being in Tennessee's head. It has everything to do with the fact they've been deeper and more talented for almost all of those 11 years with last year being probably the only potential exception. Last year they were probably still deeper with the starting talent being more comparable.

Anything can happen in a sporting event, but the bottom line is this: Tennessee is more talented this year and the depth is far greater than it has been at any point since the early 00's. On the flipside, Florida has many more question marks, and their offense sucks. No ifs, ands, or buts about it.

Tennessee is going to win. Period. Folks need to suck it up and quit sounding like a bunch of pansies.
