4. Florida
Coach:
Playboy Coach of the Year Urban Meyer
Last year:
13-1 and BCS national champions after making a very good Ohio State team look very bad in the last game of the season.
Offense:
Until someone figures out how to slow down Meyer's spread offense, it will dominate. Quarterback Chris Leak has graduated, but strong-armed Tim Tebow, who saw plenty of action last year, is ready to be the Gators' main man. Kestahn Moore will likely start at tailback, and wide receiver Louis Murphy was impressive this spring.
Defense:
Opponents with strong passing attacks may be able to exploit some holes here. Florida's corners are inexperienced, and the line doesn't have the depth you would expect from a defending national champion.
Schedule:
Favorable. Tennessee, Auburn, Georgia and Florida State are all home games. The Gators must beware of their October 6 road game at LSU.
Prediction:
10-2
