• 0:17
  Speaker 1: and that is the good part. But listening to John
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Summerall on Monday, I think the message was really clear.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: What Florida has done through the first two weeks is
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: not going to be good enough by itself, to win
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: at Auburn. This is where the season changes. You're not
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: playing FAU anymore. You're not playing Campbell. You are opening
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: SEC play on the road, at night, in Jordan-Hare Stadium.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: And throughout Summerall's press conference, I thought he gave us
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: a pretty good roadmap to what Florida has to do
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: better if it wants to leave Auburn 3-0. There are
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: several areas where the Gators can absolutely take another step
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: and honestly have to take another step. Number one for
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: me is pretty simple. Florida has to stop the run.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: That was probably the strongest thing Summerall said about Auburn's offense.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Everybody sees the wide receiver splits. Everybody sees how Auburn
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: spreads you horizontally. You see the tempo. You see the
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: potential for those shots downfield. And naturally, I think that's
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: where your eyes go. That's the exciting part. But Summerall
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: said the thing that really kills you in this style
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: of offense is the run game. They spread those receivers
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: way outside. They force defenders to respect all of that space.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: And then they turn around and they run the football
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: right at you. His words were basically, if you don't
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: stop the run against this offense, you have no chance.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: And I think that has to be the starting point
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: defensively for Florida. You can't let Auburn dictate numbers in
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: the box. You can't let the spacing scare you into
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: playing soft. And you cannot, absolutely cannot, miss tackles. You
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: have to be disciplined enough to defend the explosive play
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: without becoming passive against the run. And so that's the
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: balance that you're trying to strike. And someone else said
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Auburn wants to put defenders in space and force them
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: to win one-on-one matchups. That means they are going to
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: be placed Saturday night where there isn't some magical scheme
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: that saves you. Somebody just has to beat a block
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: or make a tackle and somebody's gotta win their matchup.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: That is gonna be a major test for this defense.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: The second thing Florida has to do better Get more
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: out of the pass rush. Now, Semrel gave a lot
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: of context to the sack numbers. He talked about how
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: fast FAU got the ball out and that Campbell called
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: a ton of screens. And he pointed out you're not
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: going to sack the quarterback on a tunnel screen when
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the ball is gone in one second. And I think
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: that's a fair, you know, remark. But he also admitted
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Florida has had opportunities when they've gotten close and they
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: just haven't finished. And I think that's the part that
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: has to change, especially against Auburn. If you allow an
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: experienced quarterback to sit back comfortably and operate this offense
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: exactly the way it was designed, you are making your
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: own life incredibly difficult. Samalka says he cares about more
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: than sacks. He wants to know, can you hurry the quarterback?
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Can you flush him out of the pocket? Can you
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: make him throw before he wants to? Can you move
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: him towards an area where he is less comfortable? And
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: all of that is important. Florida needs disruption. And I
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: think we're getting to the point where Jaden Woods in
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: particular needs to start making his presence felt a little
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: bit more. Summerall acknowledged that protections have been sliding towards him.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: So obviously teams are respecting him. But he also said
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: there are things Jaden can do better and there are
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: things this coaching staff can do to help him. This
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: would be a pretty good week for all of that
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: to just go ahead and come on and come together.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Auburn's offense has become a lot harder to defend today.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: when the quarterback is comfortable, and Florida has to change that.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Number three, Florida has to play cleaner football, and this
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: one is the most obvious to all of us. The
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Gators had five offensive line penalties against Campbell. Three of
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: them were holds, two unnecessary roughness penalties, and all five
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: happened in the second half. You can survive that against Campbell,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: as obviously the Gators did. You cannot survive that at Auburn.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: A holding penalty that turns a second and four in
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: a second and 14, that kills a drive, or at
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: least can. An unnecessary roughness penalty that gives Auburn 15
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: free yards, that can potentially flip field position. And in
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: a game that could very easily come down to a
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: single possession, those are the types of mistakes that get
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: you beat.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Hey guys, I'm going to take a quick break from.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: This video to give some love to Summit Wealth Advisors.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: You guys know my husband, Eric Wilber, as a national
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: champion punter. This week, you might be a little bit
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: reminded about that dropped punt against Auburn. But what Eric
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: is now is a financial advisor who really takes care
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: of his clients. He brings his championship mentality from his
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: football days into the office, and he helps you guys
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: get ready for retirement, make it through retirement, plan for
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: the unexpected. He helps young families, old families, teachers in retirement.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: He's an expert in FRS. Anything you might need, Eric
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: can help you get there. There's going to be a
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: link in this video you can check out. You can
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: make an appointment with him. Gators, take care of Gators.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Set a 20-minute is-it-right-for-you appointment and find out if what
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: he does might help make your family life a little
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: bit easier. We appreciate Summit Wealth Advisors for all their support.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: So I'm all basically said that some things along the
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: offensive line were better. The snaps improved. He liked what
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: he saw from Bryce Lovett, but the cleanliness of the
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: operation still has to improve. And that goes beyond the
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: offensive line. Florida has to play a mature football game.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: No pre-stab mistakes because it's loud there.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: It's going to be.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: No emotional penalties because somebody gets under your skin.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: They're going to.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: No wasted downs. No giving Auburn free yardage. SEC road
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: games are already difficult enough. You cannot make them harder
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: on yourself. And that leads me directly to number four.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Florida has to handle the environment. This is Aaron Filo's
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: first start in a setting like this. And Summerall didn't
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: pretend otherwise. Jordan Hare is going to be loud. Florida
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: is going to pump crowd noise into practice this entire
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: week to prepare. But even Summerall admitted that there's really
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: no way to completely simulate these SEC stadiums and what
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: they are like until you're just standing in the middle
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: of one. And that makes all of this a massive
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: test for Aaron Filo. I don't think necessarily because he
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: has to throw for like 350 yards. I don't think
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: he does need to do that. But what Florida does
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: need from him is composure. Summerall talked about why he
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: believes in Philo. He called him competitive and he called
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: him confident. He also said he has short memory and
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: that he's coachable. And he said he doesn't get caught
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: up in trying to be a superstar. And I did
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: love that part of the press conference. Summerall said he
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: wants his quarterbacks to worry way more about being quarterbacks
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: than about being superstars. That's exactly what Florida's going to
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: need Saturday night. Don't try to win this game on
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: every snap. Don't let one bad play become two bad plays.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Don't let a hostile crowd speed you up.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Manage the game.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Get Florida into the right looks. Protect the football. And
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: if something goes wrong, move on. Summerall said Philo continues
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: playing the way he has really through the entire season.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: If he does that, he's going to give Florida a
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: chance to win every week. That's the standard Saturday. Give
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: your team a chance. Number five, and I think this
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: one's going to matter the deeper we get into the season,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Florida needs its depth to be better. Semra was pretty
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: candid about what he saw when Florida started going deeper
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: into the roster against Campbell. He didn't think the football
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: was clean enough, and he wasn't making excuses for the
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: fact that the players are young. He understands that there
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: is a development process, and some of these guys are
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: right smack in the middle of it. But at the
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: same time, Florida can't get through the SEC schedule with
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: 11 guys on each side of the ball and just
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: hope nobody gets tired or hurt and nobody ever needs
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: a break. That's not realistic. You are going to have
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: to rotate. You're going to have to use younger players.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: And when they're going into the game, the standard can't
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: completely change. Summerall talked about urgency. That's the word that
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: I keep coming back to, too. He knows that they're young,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: but he wants them to grow faster. Because the schedule
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: is about to demand it. And Auburn is the first test.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's only five snaps for a young DB. Or
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: maybe it's a backup offensive lineman coming in for a series.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Maybe you need somebody on special teams in a critical moment.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Whatever it is, the moment cannot be too big. The
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: depth of this roster has to start becoming dependable. On offense,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: there is a very real challenge coming in the run game.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Sarmal was extremely complimentary of Auburn's defense. He thinks they
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: are very good against the run. He praised their defensive front.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: He talked about how they reset the line of scrimmage.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: He loves their linebackers. He talked about how well their
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: safeties fit the run. So Florida cannot just assume that
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: it's going to line up and run the football the
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: same way it has against lesser competition. This may be
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: the week where we learn a lot about Florida's offensive line.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Can they create movement against SEC bodies? Can they keep
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Florida out of obvious passing situations? Can they stay patient
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: if the run game isn't explosive early? Because what Florida
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: does not want to do is spend Saturday night in
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: second and 11 and third and nine while Jordan Hare
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: is going crazy. That, my friends, is a losing formula.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Florida has to stay ahead of the chains. And to
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: do that, the offensive line has to be physical and disciplined.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: One thing that should help Florida is how well the
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: skill players.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Have been blocking. Summerall raved about that on Monday.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: He talked specifically about Bailey Stockton and really the receivers
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: as a whole, the tight ends. He said the perimeter
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: blocking has been really, really good. And against a defense
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: like Auburn, those little things are really good. actually the
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: big things. They matter even more. Maybe the difference between
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: a four-yard run and an eight-yard run is a receiver
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: finishing a block. Maybe the difference between a screen getting
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: stopped immediately and becoming an explosive play is somebody blocking downfield.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Those plays are going to matter in a game like this.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Summerall said one of the best measures of.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: A skilled player is how he plays when he doesn't
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: have the football. Florida's going to need a lot of
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: guys willing to do the dirty work Saturday night.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: And then there's special teams.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: This is another area where Florida has a chance to
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: create an advantage. We saw what Vernell Brown can do
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: in the return game. Summerall has shown he is willing
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: to be aggressive. We saw that fake pun. And he
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: basically said after the game that Florida's willing to let
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: it hang out a little bit. I would not be
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: surprised if special teams plays a significant role in this game.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Not necessarily another punt returned for a touchdown, but field position,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: a long field goal, a punt that gets down inside
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: the 10, maybe another aggressive call if Auburn gives Florida
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: a look that it likes. In close SEC games, one
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: special team's play can completely swing momentum. And Florida finally
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: looks like a team that might be able to create
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: those moments instead of just hoping to avoid disaster. So
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: when I look at this Auburn game, I don't think
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Florida needs to reinvent itself. I don't think they need
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: to become something completely different.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: They just need to be cleaner, more mature, and more
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: physical than what we've already seen. Stop the run. Affect
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: the quarterback. Cut down the penalties. Handle the crowd.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: Get dependable snaps from your depth. Protect Aaron Filo and
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: allow him to manage the game. Stay ahead of the
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: chains offensively and continue winning on special teams.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Sounds simple. It won't be.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: This is the first time this season that Florida is
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: going to play an opponent that can punish every mistake.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: And that really is the crux of what.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: SEC play is. Summerall said these games count twice. I
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: kind of loved that. They count in your overall record.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: And then they count in your conference record. Florida did
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: what it needed to do through two weeks. But now
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: comes the first real measuring stick. Not whether Florida can dominate.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: not whether Florida can score 50, but can you go
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: into a hostile sec stadium against a physical football team
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: and play clean enough for four quarters to win?
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: That is the challenge.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: And Saturday night, we are going to learn a whole
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: lot more about who exactly this Florida team really is.
