Why Florida Will Win the SEC East

The first reason that the University of Florida Gators will win the SEC East is that they have multiple Heisman candidates and the most explosive offense in the league.

Tim Tebow was the first 20-20 touchdown scorer in the history of college football—and he isn't even their big play man.  When the Gators need a big play, who do they call on?  Percy Harvin.

Percy had the second highest yards per catch ratio in the SEC for a wide receiver—but not only can he catch, he can run too.  He had multiple big runs for touchdowns.  The counter play to Percy Harvin is one of the most unstoppable plays in college football today.

The offense will do what it does, but the defense this year will hold its own against any team in the league.

Three starters from the last year's secondary return, and they each have improved. The pass defense was the Gators' downfall last season, but with the two corners and the free safety returning, this unit should be much improved and overall help the Gator D.

The other strong suit of the Gators this year will be their D-line.  This line could be equally as good as that of the 2006 team.

On one end they have Jermaine Cunningham, who returns from a solid year where he had 6.5 sacks.  He has improved this offseason this well.  On the other end, Gator fans are looking forward to Carlos Dunlap.  He is a defensive end equipped with both size and speed and is a freakish athlete.

Last on the line is the one person Urban Meyer can't stop talking about—a 315-pound defensive tackle by the name of Omar Hunter.  He could stop the entire middle by himself with his size, but don't overlook his speed—for his size, he can fly.

Finally, there is the Gators' best player and the person who looks to be their defensive MVP: Brandon Spikes.  Coming off a 131-tackle season, which was second best in the SEC, Spikes will be the heart and soul of this defense and will be a huge leader on and off the field.

With the talent on this Gator team, how can any team beat them?  Not Georgia, LSU, or any team you throw at them.  No team is equally as equipped as the Gators on both offense and defense.
