Challenges for Florida
Florida’s challenge in this game is to not overlook one of the lower tier teams in the SEC. The Gators must remember that a win over Tennessee represents an SEC win, even though they are in hard times. Someday Tennessee may have a strong football program again but probably not in 2019. But the Gators need to keep in mind too that last season Tennessee knocked off Auburn (road win) and Kentucky. You can’t overlook anyone in the SEC. Kyle Trask took over for injured quarterback Feleipe Franks in the win at Kentucky last week. The challenge is for Trask to improve his game against Tennessee because rougher waters are ahead for the Gators.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 11:00 AM CT (12:00 PM ET). Watch on the ESPN Network.
