The #1 team in the Nation and defending champion Georgia Bulldogs travel to Jacksonville, FL, to take on the Florida Gators in the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party.
Following the scare against Missouri three weeks ago, the Georgia Bulldogs have ratcheted up their intensity level as they attempt to make a run for back-to-back championships.
The Bulldogs dismantled Vanderbilt a week ago in a tune-up for the Gators. Meanwhile, Florida crashed down to earth after their loss to the LSU Tigers. The offense has struggled to develop consistency and will be up against their toughest task to date, the Georgia Bulldogs dominating defense.
The betting odds and predictions are below:
To upset Georgia, Florida should ensure everything goes their way. It all starts and ends with QB Anthony Richardson. Richardson will have to play the best game of his young career. Richardson is a terrific talent, and the glimpses of his high ceiling have been spectacular. We have also seen the growing pains of an inexperienced QB. Richardson has to avoid the back-breaking mistakes against the Georgia defense.
Montrell Johnson Jr. has provided stability in the Gators' backfield in 2022. Keeping the ball out of the hands of Georgia with long-sustaining drives is the key to success for the Gators. If Johnson can keep moving the sticks, Florida has a shot.
For Georgia, it's all about Steady-Eddie Stetson Bennett. In many ways, Bennett is the polar opposite of Anthony Richardson. Bennett is not the most talented guy, but makes sure the Bulldogs stay ahead of the sticks and makes sound decisions.
If there is an 'X' factor for the Georgia Bulldogs, it is TE Brock Bowers. Bowers has an uncanny ability to get open and use his large frame to ward off would-be defenders.
