00:00Georgia and Florida. That is played in where, Joe?
00:03It's played in Jacksonville.
00:05That's, and it's not really, by the way, I do understand, like, okay, we're going to play neutral site.
00:09Georgia ever likes it. You know what? Can't we get this game in, like, the Mercedes Dome?
00:14Ah, come on.
00:14I mean, why not?
00:15Come on.
00:15Why are we playing in Florida? It's not even fair.
00:18Like, Athens is way farther for their fan base to go.
00:20It doesn't matter. Yeah, I don't like the neutral site games, but it's been no, I mean, since the last, what, 40 years, 50 years since Buck Ballou was there.
00:28By the way, what do they call it now?
00:31They don't call it the outdoor party.
00:33I still call it, yeah.
00:33Like, what is it, though? Do we have anybody in the back understand what that is?
00:36The largest party or the largest?
00:38It can't be just called the world's largest outdoor party, is it?
00:41That's something like that.
00:42Look, Joe.
00:43A player once saw a fan over a cotton out ball.
00:46Ah, come on now. That's not right.
00:48We've got to get tradition, Joe.
00:49Tradition growing up, Eric Zier in this game, all the boys going back.
00:53Herschel Walker in this game.
00:54Yeah, Terrell Davis here.
00:55By the way, do you remember the biggest celebration where no Sean Marino goes over the top, scores a touchdown, and Georgia floods on the field?
01:01Almost causes a big melee right there.
01:03Yeah, 1997, Robert Edwards, sliced and diced that team.
01:08By the way, his knee sliced and diced on the beach, Joe.
01:10You know that, and that's another day, another story.
01:12But let's get back to the biggest game of the day in the SEC.
01:15Well, maybe not, but it is a big deal to us.
01:163.30 start, Joe.
01:18This line has been interesting all week.
01:20Sevens and seven and a half, Joe.
01:21They ain't breaking.
01:22It's not going under seven.
01:23Florida without a head coach, Billy Napier, gone.
01:26We know the Gators have an extreme amount of talent.
01:29Georgia is the better football team, Joe.
01:30It is neutral site.
01:32Is Florida hanging around in this game?
01:33No.
01:34Whoa!
01:35My two best bets of the day are Georgia and Oklahoma.
01:38I really like Georgia here.
01:40And I understand Georgia's played down to the level of competition.
01:43Potentially, they struggled with Auburn, had to pull it out in the second half.
01:46They struggled with Ole Miss, had to pull that out and just covered.
01:50They did cover in both of those games.
01:52But I just think they're up against it when you just talk about Florida.
01:55Does Florida have talent?
01:56Absolutely.
01:57Can Florida in a rivalry game step up?
01:59Absolutely.
02:00But with the firing of Billy Napier, the fact that you have an extra week of preparation,
02:05people think that maybe Florida will be up in this game.
02:08I take it as a detriment.
02:09I would much rather play the week after Billy Napier got fired as opposed to sitting around
02:14thinking about your future.
02:16On the flip side, you have a Georgia team that's not just focused on an SEC championship.
02:21They're focused on a potential college football national championship.
02:25They're running the football effectively.
02:27They pounded the rock two weeks ago for 221 on that front seven of Ole Miss.
02:32They're averaging 190 rushing yards per game.
02:35Gunnar Stockton playing lights out.
02:38Zachariah Branch.
02:39You look at Colby Young, that passing attack, I think he'd get going.
02:42Nate Frazier's been more involved in that offense along with Bowens.
02:46That, to me, is the difference.
02:48And I think that front seven of Georgia steps up with a statement type of game.
02:52We talked about DJ Lagway and the inefficiencies of Florida.
02:56I think it shows through today.
02:58They can't convert on third down, averaging less than 35% in their third down offense.
03:04That's a concern.
03:05And turnovers, I think, will deal to Florida in this matchup.
03:09Again, I think Georgia comes into this game focused, week off, will benefit them.
03:14They've won four straight in the series by an average margin of victory at 21.5 points per game.
03:20Won last year by 14 points.
03:22If Napier and this team had four or five wins, Donnie, I would say different animal.
03:27Georgia, to me, rolls by double digits.
03:30DJ Lagway.
03:31It's going to be on his shoulders, say, if they want to pull an upset off against the Georgia Bulldogs.
