5 schools that could let down in 2013:
Florida: The Gators lose a ton of depth and talent with just 11 starters coming back. Departures include Matt Elam, Shariff Floyd and Jelani Jenkins and Mike GIllislee and Jordan Reed on offense. It still looks like the Gators could struggle in the passing game. Their defense might not shut teams down the way...

Gators try not to let Bowl loss spoil solid 2012
NEW ORLEANS -- We can go back and forth about the pros and cons of the college football bowl system, but one of the quirks that makes the 35-game holiday football festival so unique is that 35 teams get to end the season on a high.
Which means the other 35 go out on a low.
And so it was for the 2012 Florida Gators, who five weeks ago bused home from Tallahassee after an 11-1 regular...
Reed closing out strong season
After splitting time at tight end and quarterback during the 2010 season, Jordan Reed moved full time to tight end for the start of the 2011 season. The Gators haven’t featured an elite passing attack in the two seasons with Reed at tight end, but his strong back-to-back seasons have put him in position to leave early for the NFL after the Sugar Bowl. The decision hasn’t been made yet.

Reed is a constant on offense
Some could go into the tank after a bad play to keep your team from possibly winning the game. Jordan Reed isn’t one of those. The Gators’ junior tight end continues to be a bright spot in an offense that continues to look for answers. Saturday, he came in clutch and was part of two big plays for an offense that didn’t do much all day.
Reed's redemption comes at opportune time
GAINESVILLE, Fla. The last time the world saw Gators tight end Jordan Reed catch a pass in the middle of the field and race toward the end zone in the game's final moments, Georgia linebacker Jarvis Jones knocked the ball loose and Georgia recovered.
The play sealed the Bulldogs' win over the then-unbeaten Gators two weeks ago in Jacksonville and left Reed in tears on the...
