    Well here's what we've all been waiting for. The start of our 2023 season. Season two under Coach Napier. New QB, new defensive coordinator, and new players.

    For me, our success this season, including this game, will depend on two components on offense. Play calling and how well the QB performs.

    After this game, I expect we will know what to expect from Coach Napier's offense moving forward.

    The Utes are favoured by a touchdown. However consistent with tradition, I am predicting a Gator victory as follows:

    Gators: 27
    Utes: 24

    I think the key to how badly Utah loses depends on if Rising plays.
    With Rising: 30-27 Florida
    Without Rising: 42-14 Florida
