But i agree with a lot of this haha, nah I'm not passing judgement on the quality of the football. Georgia seems to be owning Florida a bit now. But, perception-wise, the armchair QBs sitting on their couches with bellies full of beer generally think Florida is a notch above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't lived there in the last 23 years. So, I'm not speaking for anyone. But, the reasons for any team to skip it make perfect sense. And I didn't even mention the wear and tear on the kids bodies after an NFL-length season. You know what Lakeland would have gotten from beating Lee County the week after beating STA last year? NOTHING. ZERO. It would have done nothing for anyone. It wouldn't even have appeased the handful of message board geeks here, who would have dismissed a win over Lee as rather meaningless.

Most of the times FL have played GA teams it's been complete mismatches before the game even took place This year the only FL vs GA games (regular season) that looked like it was even close to even were both played in GA and resulted in GA wins So I call bullshit on GA owning FL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakeland most significant win in regular season last year was probably Apopka Didn't matter when they beat STA by double digits in finals, playing "national schedules" don't make you a elite team on its own, sure they can make you better prepared for tough games but at end of the day being a great team you will be great regardless of your schedule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it’s the advantage of having a team that looks like they woke up from a great nap and are completely healthy across-the-board. Playing against a team that is battered and bruised from real competition There is probably around 100 teams in Broward and Dade County. Lakeland starts at the 100th best team and then 99, and so on until some slap dick agrees to come up and play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does North Gwinnett still get by in OT if they play in Tampa instead of GA Is lowndes vs MNW a blowout if played in SFL instead of Valdosta? These questions are important when evaluating, again maybe GA still wins these games in FL but when GA has every built in advantage how can we say with certainty that FL is getting owned??
