One of the things that lets me know we're actually within striking range of college football each year is the slow trickle of news about the NCAA Football game coming out in that particular year. This year, it's NCAA Football 13, and Florida's looking like a good choice in the game — on defense, anyway.
Thanks to Tradition Sports Online, which compiled team ratings and some pictures of team rosters, we know that Florida's a 91 overall (so are Nebraska ... and Tulsa?) and has an 84 on offense and a 93 on defense. That 91 ties Florida for 25th among all teams, and is behind teams like Washington and Utah; the 84 on offense puts the Gators in the company of Duke and Purdue.
But Florida's 93 on defense is tied with Oklahoma's 93 for 10th, and it's a good bet that in 2013, as in 2012 in reality, the Gators defenders will probably have to carry the day.
