Challenges for Florida

Two programs headed in opposite directions meet in Knoxville. It’s been a long time since these two were both dominant powers in the SEC. Now Florida is the only program of the two that carries that banner. Can Tennessee beat Florida in Knoxville? It’s possible but the Vols won’t have the advantage of 100,000 screaming fans. It’ll be more like a practice scrimmage in noise volume. The challenge for Florida is to disrupt Tennessee quarterback Jarrett Guarantano’s game. When he is on, he’s on fire. When he off, he’s struggling mightily. It’s incredible that Tennessee doesn’t have someone that can be reliable consistent for them but they’ve stuck with Guarantano four seasons now and this season it has caught up with them big time. Stop Guarantano and you stop Tennessee.

Saturday‘s game kicks off at 2:30 PM CT (3:30 PM ET). You can watch this Florida football game on the CBS Network.
