Challenges for Florida
Wide receiver Dominic Lovett is a dynamic player for Mizzou. So far this season Lovett has 27 catches for 460 yards. That’s over 17 yards per catch. His best game so far this season was against Abilene Christian when he had seven catches for 132 yards and two touchdowns. Only a sophomore, Lovett was the fourth-best 2021 prospect in the state of Missouri. He is an important player for Missouri. Once freshman sensation Luther Burden reaches his full potential Mizzou will have a double receiving threat as good as any in the country. Keeping Lovett in check will be a challenge for the Gators on Saturday.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 11:00 AM CT (12:00 PM ET). Watch this SEC football game on the ESPNU Network.
