Challenges for Georgia
Florida has been somewhat mediocre this season as head coach Billy Napier gets his team accustomed to his offensive schemes. However, Georgia does some thing well offensively. They average almost 15 yards per reception which is among the best in the nation. The Gators are superb at protecting the quarterbacks averaging less than one sack per game which is the best in the SEC and fifth best nationally. It will be interesting to see how well the Gators blockers can do against that strong Georgia defense.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 2:30 PM CT (3:30 PM ET). Watch this SEC football game on the CBS Network.
