    Following a loss at home to Texas A&M the Gators (7-7, 0-2 SEC) will now shift their focus to Saturday’s contest against the Georgia Bulldogs (11-3, 1-0 SEC).

    My take: I don't say it often but this is as close to a must-win game as Florida has at this point in the season . . . for a lot of reasons.

    I hope Florida plays some of the aggressive defense they showed at the start and then later in the second half Wednesday night.

    I'm not getting my hopes up for this one. Things have gone badly for the program, and I don't have reason to think it won't continue. Getting beat by UG will have to be the bottom though, right? Sorry for the cynicism.

    Apathy for the program is already setting in. Losing this one would be devastating

    Same here, but you will be able to tell by attendance at home games

    I always liked Mike White and he has made Georgia into a better team.
