Just like last year.......21-13 or so at halftime and then second-half, the wheels come off. Final score 42-16. Mertz 13-26 180 yards for 1 TD and 2 INTs and a fumble. Rushing totals UGA 292 - UF 56. We go 2-14 on 3rd down and have 10 penalties for 95 yards. 2 coming on a drive which we are on UGA's 4-yard line 1 minute before half and wind up settling for a 46-yard field goal. Defense allows a 70% 3rd down conversion for UGA. Sorry not getting a good vibe about this one.
Gators lose 31-17 after being tied at the half 10-10. UGA is still too good, but the Gators keep it competitive!
Unfortunately we see the difference of 5 stars who have experience against a lot of freshmen. 34-14 Ga. Just hoping nobody gets hurts because the Arkansas game is so important.
Heart: 27 to 24 Gators Head: we aren't there YET. Close for a bit, fight the good fight, but 38 to 22 mangy mutts. They know we're coming for them. Stay tuned.
The Butt Sniffers lead too many statistical categories on both offense and defense. CBN stated we need to play a perfect game against them to give ourselves a chance. The USCe game we won with our backs against the wall in the 4qtr against a defense no where near the level of the mutts. We play with fire, intelligence and intensity, with a never give up mentality, but fall just short. Bad guys 34, Good Guys 28.
Mertz is playing better than anyone expected and we have some dudes at the skill positions …but, I don’t trust this OL against their DL. I see us struggling to move the ball. GA won’t look sharp either, but they’ll manage. Low scoring game. GA 24-14
