Florida football was terrible last season. The Gators went 4-8, had won of the worst offenses in America, and closed the season on a seven game losing streak. Coming into this year, Florida was expected to improve, but there weren’t many people that expected much out of Will Muschamp’s team in 2014.

However, at least one person thinks the Gators are better than anyone expects: Alabama head coach Nick Saban. Earlier today, Saban talked about Florida and said that he thinks the Gators are a good football team. Saban said this three days before the Crimson Tide take on the Gators.

Saban: Florida is "way better than anybody here thinks. Way better."

Saban continued to say that, because Florida is so underrated, “it’s important our players play their very best.” It should be a great matchup on Saturday, and if you want to watch, the game will kick off at 3:30 P.M. on CBS.

Do you agree? Or is Saban just showing respect to an opponent?

I'm not sure how they are better offensively than last year except that their QB is back. But he's not exactly lighting up the scoreboard is he...

They are pretty good defensively, but I did see a lot of room for our offense to exploit their secondary, but a lot goes into that.

Can our O-Line give Blake enough time to make reads without getting all dissheveled?
Can Blake make all the throws in a high stress/pressure environment?
Can our O-Line make holes for our RBs?

Should be fun to watch...

btw.. i think our D shuts them down.
