Preview
Head coach Kirby Smart and Georgia had been on cruise control for most of the season until a disastrous 36-16 loss against No. 5 LSU two weeks ago in Baton Rouge. Luckily, the Bulldogs had their bye the following week as a way of splitting up the toughest portion of their schedule.
Smart understands the gameplan for tackling the Gators’ talented defense starts up front.
“I don’t know if we’ll know that. I mean we worked hard at stopping the run up front, controlling the line of scrimmage, tackling, a lot of pass pro offensively. We tried to work really hard on special teams, directional kicking, a lot of things that we have to improve on. Those are all really critical.
But I don’t know if you honestly know that until you get out there and play another game, because you can only see so much at practice. I certainly hope the work we put in pays dividends in the areas that we focused on.”
Florida, unlike Georgia, bested LSU at home earlier this season. The Gators’ only loss in 2018 has come at the hands — paws — of the Wildcats, which was the first game on their SEC slate.
