So it's that time. Everyone knows pretty much all there is to know, and unfortunately there really isn't that much news to tell. This has been the most unimaginative pre-game week before the showdown in recent memory. No "inspirational speeches" by the Christ Child, no "we'll get 'em for the endzone dance" talk, and no "we're going to beat the hell out of them" talk from either side. No, in fact, this has been the kind of week that leads one to think that both sides are honestly concerned.
The Gaytors have had a few sub-par weeks leading up to the least most anticipated Party in years, and our fella's have had a week to soak in all the "upset" talk they can. I'm not going to bore anyone with match-ups and what we need to do and what they need to do moreso than I already have, so I'll just get to the point.
We seemingly do one thing well, and that is stop the run. Florida can't run the ball. We seemingly get beat by one thing more than anything else, and that is the deep ball. Florida can't throw the deep ball. We can't score many points, and at this point, it seems the Second Coming can't either, unless it's for the opposing team.
The Gaytors have a good defense, we have an inconsistent offense. We have a bad defense, the Gaytors have in inconsistent offense. So where does that leave us? I'm almost scared to admit it, but, I think at this point (especially with the off week), I really think we have a chance to win this ball game. I told my brother a few weeks ago that I was going to pick Heblow in a blowout. I'm not convinced I shouldn't, but then again, I'm a blind UGA homer. So here it is, and if it happens, you saw it here first. If it doesn't, just call me dumb.
Prediction: UGA 24 UF 23
