Arkansas and Florida are the only time they play any consecutive ranked teams.
Florida has the worst schedule in the SEC with LSU, Bama, and Auburn in consecutive weeks, but they are the only ones with a schedule like that.
I'm tired of hearing a team doesn't play anyone so they can't be any good. It's ignorant. Oregon doesn't play anyone, but they beat the shit out of every SEC team they played last year except Auburn, and that was just a poorly played game.
Florida is no where near the talent level of Boise. Kellen Moore will be in the top of the Heisman votes this year for good reason. Boise State has proven to be one of the most consistent passing games in the country. There was not a team last year who could do an effective job of shutting them down. There defense is on par with any team in the country, even on a 2nd string tackle and third string safety, two of their best players. In case you haven't noticed the whole conference system of college football is fixing to change, it's heading towards 4 super conferences. The SEC is not the powerhouse it was in the past. The talent level, coaching, and recruiting just isn't there. Heck there was as many players from GA on Boise's roster last night as there was on UGA's. The whole conference has slacked off. Heck, 5-10 years ago EVERY SEC team was ranked and in contention for the title, can you say that now? College football has changed.
