Apparently Mertz also beat Milton head-to-head when they were both in the B10, so do we get to count that, too?
That was a good game back in the day when we still played defense. Burrow suffered. Perhaps we can make Milton suffer, even with our young guys on D. A lot rests on our secondary. May they grow up today. They need our front 7 to set the tone early and rattle Milton. As for Mertz, he needs to handle the big stage and play within himself.
I want to believe Florida will win. I certainly hope we do. I just have a hard time seeing it happen, given how poor the showing was in Utah. Maybe the home crowd will give them the boost we’re hoping for, but Tennessee really, really wants this game (they had a players-only meeting this week). Our boys will need to be firing on all cylinders.
Why didn't Florida players have an only players meeting too? It seems like FL would really want to win this game too!
