How far has Florida fallen?

I barely watched UNC last year. Was kinda burned out after tracking Howell for a while, especially when they were awful. Apparently I should get back to it.
Maye is legit. PFF liked him & Williams better than all of the top guys in this current class this year.
North Carolina lost a good bit though including their OC & it’s looking like the beginning of the end for Mack Brown there. Maye might be the one that keeps afloat there some next year.

@JojoTheWhale i was listening to a podcast looking at next year & what the hypothetical opening season win totals by Vegas could be. When they got to Ohio State they wondered if this could be a year if they open 9.5 with Michigan, Penn State, & Notre Dame on the schedule with an unproven QB in the fold. I don’t even know the last time they had a season where Vegas opened them in the single digits.
WOW. That really would be a giant outlier. They sprinkled in an 11 here and there, but they've almost always been a 10.5 team this century.
My data goes back to 1998. After the laughable "down period" in the late 90s/early 00s, I have them as low as 9.5 by consensus opening line exactly once. That was coming into 2012 after the 6-7 Luke Fickell + Freshman Starter Braxton Miller year. That was also Urban's first season and they went 12-0.
