John Brantley has been seen on campus with a boot on his right foot. The injury is to his ankle. I've heard the injury is not that severe.

That is good news.  If I were them, I would let him sit out against LSU.  They could break him too, especially if he is a tad slow because of the ankle.  They need him back to full speed by the time they play Auburn.

I will be surprised if he plays agasint LSU. I think they hold him out but that poor freshman QB is in for the beating of his life. I expect a lot of holding calls against the Gators in that game.

Good point.  I just hope Florida makes a good showing, or we might lose some luster on our victory.  On the other hand, if LSU crushes Florida (and I expect it to be 30 points or more), maybe LSU will think they can cruise against us.

Before anyone flames me, I admit my predictions suck.  Just skip the trashing of my history and give us your prediction (score UF vs LSU).

I think LSU wins big at home, but I also think people will realize that they are a much different team without their starting QB so it doesn't really diminish what Bama did at UF.

Upshaw had a high ankle sprain and was not himself for about 6 weeks. He played on it.

I think UF keeps it close in the 1st half but LSU goes away in the 2nd half because of Fla being young and not much depth. We know what depth did for us. RTR!

According to the ESPN SEC Blog John Brantley expected to sit against LSU.

LOL!! No joke. Has a true freshman QB EVER been placed in a worst situation, facing a ferocious defense with a week of preparation and at their stadium? This could be a very ugly situation.

Hmmm.... I seem to recall one in 2009 that had to come in on the first series with NO preparation and all the marbles at stake.
