Gators Have MAJOR ADVANTAGE Everyone Is MISSING Against Auburn Tigers | UF Football · SEC Football Addiction

  Speaker 1: Auburn, Florida is, it's intriguing for different ways, but this
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: is a hell of an intriguing game. When you think about,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: when you think about the quarterback and the coach that
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: had a group of five program beat this team last
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: year in the swamp. When you think about John Summerall
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: looked like he was heading to Auburn, spurns them to
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: go to Florida. You think about Alex Golish coming in
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: and wanting to prove that he is not just a
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: backup option, that he was the better option. And that's
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: what our Auburn should have been focused. Anyway, some are
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: all in goalish, know each other. There's that off field, Auburn, Florida,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: a really good rivalry from history that doesn't get played
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: often enough. Hopefully we'll now with the nine game sec rotation,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: their fans have been going at it all week, really
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: for the last two or three weeks on Twitter. Um,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: This is a game that's going to be a ton
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: of fun. It doesn't quite get the notoriety that LSU
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Ole Miss does for very obvious reasons. This game is
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: not going to be detrimental to either tenure, but I'll
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: tell you what, it is going to give one of
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: these two coaches and programs a massive boost for this
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: year because then you start to evaluate and look at
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: their schedule a little bit differently, both win and loss.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: If you win, you're starting to think, okay, well, maybe
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: we can beat this team, this team, this team. If
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: you lose, I think you're starting to look at some
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: of the tougher teams on your schedule and say, and
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Those are going to be tough. Presented by PrizePix, of course,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: we'll stay in the SEC with Cole. What's the difference
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: in this one, Cole?
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: What are we going to get from Byron Brown the
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: second time around against Power 14? I think it's a
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: really important factor because Byron Brown looked awful passing the
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: football against Baylor. Now, Baylor does have a defensive-minded coach
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: in Dave Aranda, but everything I'm about to say is
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: going to be basically counteracted to what I say about
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: John Summerall, defensive-minded coach going up for Florida. So how
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: do you perform in a more consistent balance that allows
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: you to be able to keep drives alive? That may
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: be running the football. I mean, honestly, if you want
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: to take a book out of the Buster Faulkner offense
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: of Haynes King running it 25 times a game, that
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: may be the way that you got to win. I mean, like,
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: let's be real. Byron Brown is a phenomenal athlete that
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: is the only returning player in college football this year
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: with 3,000 passing yards and 1,000 rushing yards. He may
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: have to go up against this Florida front seven and
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: just pick up yards as much as possible inside of
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Jordan Hare that forces you to live in second-to-manageable situations.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Because if you ask him to throw the football, at
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: this point, even though I think there are some questions
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: when it comes to Florida's secondary, not a lot, but
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: still some, you are now asking a guy who has
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: had problems with finding consistency passing to win with his arm.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: That's not a recipe for success, I think, for Auburn whatsoever.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: What are we going to see from this Auburn offensive line?
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: The last time the right side of the line was
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: bullied by Baylor. And surprisingly, I have been pleasantly optimistic
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: with how the front seven of Florida has looked through
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: their first two games. Credit, Florida and Campbell, you know,
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: basically the guys who have a humpback and, you know,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: a team that is... Blank if it's for a boss.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Anyway, that's not the point here.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: And by the way, I think Florida Atlantic is actually
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: not that bad of a team in the American, but
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: that's not the point. The point is that it's Auburn,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: and it's a road environment. What does this offensive line
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: look like going up against a defense that has kind
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: of at least started to find an identity of winning
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: one-on-one battles in pass rushing sets and run blocking sets?
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: The thing that I look for in Auburn's defense, how
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: do you slow down Jaden Baugh? I mean, let's be real.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Jaden Baugh right now is averaging 10.6 yards a play
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: and 148 yards per game. That was against inferior competition.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: DJ Durkin's defense is a top 25 run defense in
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: college football year in and year out. But if they
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: don't stop him, at what point do you start to say,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: this is the best running back in college football, and
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: we just got a game plan of how do we
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: make him get his yards but take away everything else
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: in the offense? So you got to be able to,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: I think, force Aaron Filo to beat you. And the
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: reason I said that Aaron Filo has to beat you
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: is because of as much as we like what we
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: have seen so far from Aaron Filo in a small
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: sample size, working with Buster Faulkner, Buster Faulkner and him
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: are making their first true road SEC start. He is
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: making his first road start in college football in an
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: environment that I personally believe, and you guys can fight
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: back on this all you want, but I believe it
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: is the third most intimidating atmosphere at night in college football.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: That's how much I respect the atmosphere of Jordan-Hare Stadium.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: The ravenous pitch that you will hear from that fan
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: base cascading through the field on third down place. How
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: do you force him to be erratic? especially on passing
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: sets that can get the ball into a hand of
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: a linebacker, into a secondary member, and give short field
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: position for an Auburn offense. Those are the mental details
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: I'm looking for. I think that you're going to need
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: to have one explosive play by both teams in the
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: passing attack. I'm looking at Bernal Brown potentially going off
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: and setting up a really good punt return that can
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: give you a short field position. I want to see...
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: See what you can get from Dallas Wilson in this game.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Dallas Wilson, I believe, is the most talented player on
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: the field in terms of just playmaking standpoint on either side.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: What can you do when you get into space, turning
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: a 15-yard slant pattern into a 30-yard game? And then
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: on the flip side, I need to be able to
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: see somebody be that security blanket for Byron Brown. You
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: may end up having a couple of just really good
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: dink and dunk plays that puts you inside the red
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: zone of where you can trust what you got with
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: the running back room of Cobb and Madsen. and Bryson Washington,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: but I got to know that there is somebody that
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: is going to be able to move the sticks and
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: really put kind of a damper on this passing attack.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, this pass defense that Florida has and has
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: looked really promising so far to begin the year.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: I saw and want to get your take on this call,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: not to ignore you here in the segment, Tom, but
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: we'll come to you after this, after Cole follows up
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: on it. Brad White's Kentucky defenses, when they have seen tempo,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Against Tennessee specifically, it has not been great. No. And
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I don't think that Auburn has the horses that Tennessee
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: has had offensively. So I do think you have to
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: account for that. But is that your worry for Florida
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: in this game? Is that if that tempo that Golish
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: is going to try and implement here starts to get Florida...
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: And this Brad white defense that does have athletes, better athletes.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: And I think Kentucky had, so it's not a one
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: for one comparison, but is that kind of your concern
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: for Florida is that they turn the tempo up and
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: that defense just doesn't look like we expected to look
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: because some role has been very adamant that, yeah, we
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: have held teams like Campbell to not very many points,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: but he hasn't seemed super thrilled with his defense to
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: start the year. Considering the competition. If I'm a Florida fan, that's,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: that's what I, if we can limit their tempo, I
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: think we feel really, really good. If we don't, this
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: could kind of get sideways.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I thought it was interesting to hear how after
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: the Florida Atlantic game, John Summerall kind of went after
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: his defense and said that they were out of communication.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: They were out of positioning. They didn't look crisp. And
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of things that we got to clean
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: on up despite winning by double digits and covering the spread.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I mean like, which also is just like a breath
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: of fresh air compared to a lot of coaches that
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: currently reside in college football. What I will say is,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: is that that could happen. And it wouldn't shock me
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: at all to watch as Byron Brown leads a tempo-led
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: charge down the field and they hang six points up immediately.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Here's my counterpoint to it. Are we sure that this
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Auburn offense is in a position right now that is
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: going to be able to play with tempo consistently for
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: four quarters? Because that's where I'm at when it comes to,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: if you're rushing through your progression, we still don't really
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: know what this Auburn offense is. We think that it
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: can be exactly what it was at South Florida, which
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: is a high potent passing attack that trusts its run game,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: that utilizes a good balance of the RPO that allows
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: you to pass vertically downfield. We think it could be that.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: But we also have one data point of it was
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: a very underwhelming, lackluster performance against Baylor. And the things
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: that worked, they kind of steered away from until they
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: were forced to have to utilize that to their advantage.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: So do we see it on a consistent basis? I
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: think that there is a reason to believe that if
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Auburn is able to come out, look back, not shoot
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: themselves in the foot with negative plays, not have themselves
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: giving up a lot of pressures to the right side
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: of the offensive line. If you say that, I think
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: that you would feel very confident that, yes, Auburn will
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: be able to play with tempo that could put Florida
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: in a position where they are allowing too many explosives.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: They are allowing third downs to continue to transpire. But
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: I also got to see it happen. That's where I'm
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: at right now, is that I still have my concerns
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: that Auburn may have two or three really successful drives.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: And then that's counteracted by two really bad drives that
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: lead to either three and outs or turnovers in short
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: field position.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Hey, guys, I'll get right back to the show. But first,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: I want to tell you about our friends over at
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Price Picks. All new users there who play a $ 5
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: lineup and win get $ 150 in lineups instantly if they've
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: used code HMA. This week on The Power 2 over
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: on the College Football Addiction main channel, we picked these
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: picks that you see on the screen. Mensa, Tony, Lacey, Levitt.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: And Trinidad, a lot of these can be adjusted. So
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: we took the more on everything, but some of us
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: took the more on Trinidad to have one passing touchdown.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Some of us took the more on him to have 1.5
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: or 3.5. Some of us took the more on Sam
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Leavitt at 2.5 passing touchdowns. Kiwan Lacey has a bunch
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: of different options that we took the more on. You
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: can take more than 76. You can take more than 69.5.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: You can take more than 39.5. If you just want
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: to try and play it safe. Malachi Tony at 0.5 touchdowns.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I took the more there. You can go all the
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: way up to 2.5 if you think he goes off
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: against Wake. Go check out the PrizePix app. Take the
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: more on everything, but adjust it to where your comfort
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: level is. Go check out them. Go check out the
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: live show of The Power 2. Make sure you are subscribed.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Now back to the clip. Tom, thoughts on this one?
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: I expect low scoring. I was just looking at the
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: numbers for this one. It's over under 53.5. That feels high.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: I look at this game and I think, Both teams
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: want to run the ball effectively, whether it's with Byron
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: Brown or whether it's with Jaden Baugh. I think we
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: know more about Auburn given the opponents that Florida has
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: faced thus far, but I believe in Jaden. Baugh as
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: your primary bell cow. For him to get, I don't know,
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: like 30 touches in this game wouldn't shock me. I
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: think I like, man, this is another one that's just
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: a coin flip within the SEC. I think I like
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Auburn to just narrowly pull this out, and it might
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: be something where it kind of feels a little bit
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: like Texas-Ohio State, like somebody collapses or somebody's dominating for
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: most of the game and then all of a sudden
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: just kind of popping up. Weird things happen at Jordan-Hare.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: That's the truth of the matter. Florida, I think, is
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: going to give Auburn everything they can handle. I think
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: this will be very physical. This is a glimpse into
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: the future of not only the SEC but college football.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: I believe in John Summerall. I believe in Alex Golish.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: I think they're going to build really good programs. I
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: like Florida's talent better, but there's just something about Auburn
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: getting this game at home. And if they can stay
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: consistent on offense, if Brown can just not turn the
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: ball over, like if this looks like Bryce Underwood's stat
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: line against Oklahoma for Byron Brown, Auburn wins this game,
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: in my opinion. But again, I could see this one
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: going either way. I would take a first half under
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: for sure, because I feel like this is going to
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: be a lot of running the football.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: A lot of.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: Defensive play, some punts, field position, that's all going to
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: add up in this game.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: Let me ask you, do you guys think that this
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: is a window game or a crossroads game for both programs?
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: I think it's a litmus test game, is how I
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: would say it. I think it's, both these programs are
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: in very similar spots. They're both programs that think they
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: should be performing better over the last 5-10 years than
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: they have in the SEC. They're both programs that have
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: very passionate fan bases and a lot of money and
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: donors and, and they expect to win. They've both been
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: bad for the last, however many years. And so the
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: question that will be answered after this game, and it'll
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: be an overreaction because football's weird and weird things happen. And,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: you know, nobody thinks Oklahoma state is a better program
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: than Oregon just because they upset them. Now we think
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Oregon's in trouble. We think, you know, all those things.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: But there will, the overreaction after this game will be, Oh, see,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Auburn is a better job and Summerall should have gone
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: there instead. That's not really the case. Or, hey, Summerall
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: made the right choice by going to Florida and see
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: he already is winning in week one. But I do
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: think for this. So I don't think it has a reference.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: It's not a referendum on the tenures, like I said,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: kind of in the intro to the video. But it
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: is kind of a referendum on where you are as
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: a program right now. this is two programs that are
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: in similar spots, but built very differently. Florida retained a
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: crap ton of talent and then brought in a few
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: key pieces, Auburn overhaul. And so there's a big difference
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: in the way that both programs have gotten here to
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: this game. And there's a reason that, I mean, there's honestly,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: there's a reason that it's a three point spread right now,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: because at this point, Vegas doesn't know who's better. They're
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: saying Florida is slightly better. I think from a talent perspective,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: they are. How does the camaraderie, the chemistry of Florida
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: sticking together a new quarterback for the Gators, a new
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, the idea of an imported team in a
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: lot of places for Auburn. How does that work? Playing
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: at home, all those things. I don't think it's a
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: referendum on the tenures, but I do think it's a, hey,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: this is the litmus test of where both programs are
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: right now. One of them is going to come out ahead,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: and you would certainly say, hey, probably whoever wins this
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: game is in a slightly better spot than the other
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: person is, but I expect a three- to four-point game.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I think this is a game where you're not making definitive,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: definitive statements on, oh, yeah, see, we're the better program
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: because we squeaked out a win over an also very
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: talented team.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: I think if Florida, though, wins, look at the way
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: that morale could kind of catapult them into next week
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: because they take on Ole Miss at home. And if
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Ole Miss wins that game, that's an easy letdown spot
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: to where now you have Florida sitting at 4-0. And
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Florida at 4-0 looks a lot different than Florida going
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: into the month of October at 3-2. I mean, in
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: the month of November at like 3-3. So, like, again,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: Florida's got some damn tough games coming on up. So, like,
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: if they get this win and then somehow they're able
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: to pull past an Ole Miss next week, It changes.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: And I think for Auburn, it's like their offense is
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: cohesive in this game and balanced in this game. At
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: least for the first time since, what, the late days,
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: first year of Bo Nix, we can say Auburn's offense
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: is not the problem of why they're actually crapping the
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: bed every single season. I mean, it's just a.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: Win in that standpoint, in my opinion. And to your
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: question about, you know, is this a crossroads? Like, I
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: look at this season as.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: For both Auburn and Florida as just like, Hey, this
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: is just the beginning. This is a launching pad of
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: the future. I look at this as, you know, if
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: you look back in history, the first time that like
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: Pat Mahomes and Josh Allen played each other in the
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: national football league, like they played so many times now
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: at this point, I think you're going to see that
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: with Summerall and Golish, hopefully for years to come. Hopefully
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: these guys are with their respective programs and they build
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: them in the direction everybody believes they can go in.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: I think that's what this is. because I look at
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: this game and my first thought is like, man, I
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: wish like the quarterback talent was better, man. I wish
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: there was more pieces here and there, but this is
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: just a glimpse of things to come. And I think
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: as the years go by, you're going to see improvements
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: to these rosters, improvements to these staffs, and they're only
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: going to get bigger and bigger. So I'm excited about
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: this game to your point. Like it's two unranked teams.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: I think somebody is going to wind up ranked at
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: the end of this. And it's a matter of which
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: team can jump up and bite somebody. We talked about
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: this in the off season. I think both these teams,
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: are going to jump up and upset somebody throughout this season,
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: and this is going to be an indicator of who
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: and how.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I thought Cole's point to what this could really do
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: for Florida, not that it can't do great things for
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: Auburn too, but what this could do for Florida is
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: you're going to get an Ole Miss team next week
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: in the swamp who, one, you beat two years ago
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: and kept them out of the playoff, two, is coming
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: off of one of the most emotion, you know, actually
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: let me back up to you beat Texas last week
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: in the swamp or last year in the swamp. We
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: know how tough that place is to play three. They're
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: coming off of a lot of emotion, winter loss on Saturday.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: And Florida is the classic letdown spot. No matter what
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: the heck happens in Oxford on Saturday night. Yep. Like
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: there is no, I don't know. I mean, Baton Rouge
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: is tough. Knoxville is tough. Kyle feels tough. I don't
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: know if there's a worse place to go play. than Gainesville, Florida,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: after a very emotional game. Those psychopaths in that town
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: have sold out 20 straight games, and they've been terrible. Like,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: that's not a shot. That's not me being the FSU guy.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: I am stunned at that fan base. 20 straight sellouts
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: with Billy Napier as your head coach and playing the
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: Campbell Camels. Like, that's impressive. Like, I wish my fan
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: base did that. Like, trust me, I'm not crapping on
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: the Florida fans. Like, they're great, and... Sark and the
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: boys found out last year. So Florida's got Auburn now.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: They win this one. They go beat Ole Miss next
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: week because of Ole Miss. And then they got Missouri.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: Florida very well could be 5-0.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: 5-0. It's not shocking.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: I don't think. Now, by the same token, Florida could
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: go lose at Auburn. Trinidad could beat them. And they
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: have a losing record against Missouri since Missouri has been
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: in the SEC. So yeah, they could be two and three.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Like football is a game of inches and the margins
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: are razor thin. But I'm telling you, there's a path
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: to Florida five and O and being a top 15 team.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: And it ain't, it ain't that far.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: It's not that far.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: It's not. So it could do great things for both programs.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: It could absolutely catapult Florida into a different stratosphere of
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: the way that we view them. All right.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: Score prediction.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Let's go. I love football, man. I think Florida gets
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: it done. I'll take 24-17 Gators.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Tom Miriam.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: I'm going like 20-18. We're going weird stuff.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Ugly.
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: I think there's going to be some special team stuff
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: at play. DB3, yeah. I think there's going to be
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: some offensive stuff at play. I think this is going
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: to be a low-scoring rock fight to a degree. I
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: think it'll be fun, but this is going to be physical.
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: But I think Auburn at home... I like 20 to 18.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: The voodoo shaman man that is buried underneath Jordan hair
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: stadium makes his appearance once per year. And since the
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: iron bowl is not going to be played this season
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: at Auburn, he can't make his appearance in November. So
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: maybe this is a game. Uh, what I always look
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: at at the end of the day is what do
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: I like as the best player on the football field?
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: And what coordinators do I like better? Um, I think
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Buster Faulkner is the best offensive coordinator in college football.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: And I think that he is going to show why
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: on Saturday, I'm going to go 24, 21 Florida on
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: the road.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: I thought Cole was going to go Auburn there for
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: just a moment and make the Florida State guy be
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: the only one to pick the Gators today.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: I'm going to play on Shane and Bob winning the
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Heisman trophy. I've got to at least hold out.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: On that a little longer. You and your Gators, Cole,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: every year.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Debt taxes and Gator Cole, that's what we're known as.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Hates 138 teams, but for some reason loves UF.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Hey, but they're no Purdue on the other side.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Those fountain bastards. They don't have the fountains. They have
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: the power, but not the fountains.
