Gators Insider SURPRISED Me with UPDATES on QBs & MORE for UF... · SEC Football Addiction

  Speaker 1: Welcome back to SEC Football Addiction.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Allie Peek, a peek inside Gators football, talking all things UF.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: On the bye week this week, we are presented by PrizePix.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: All new users there play $ 5, get $ 150 in lineups
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: instantly if you use code HMA. Allie, we want to
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: dive in a little bit to this quarterback battle, but
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: you've said this on other shows, Florida at 5-2 ranked,
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: and if you'd have offered that to Gator fans coming
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: into Summer Hall's first season, they probably would have taken it,
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: probably wouldn't have taken the path that probably wouldn't have
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: picked the path that Florida has taken. But I don't
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: know that anybody could have predicted the path that any
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: team has taken so far in this college football season.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: So we probably shouldn't even be that surprised.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, the fact that we are only seven
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: games into the season and there is not a single
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: undefeated SEC team at the moment just tells you what
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: an insane season this already is. But if you had
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: said to Gator fans, okay, during that bye week, before
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: you go into Georgia, you're going to be sitting at 5-2.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: I think everybody would have been really pleased. This is
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: already one win more than they had last year. Now,
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: I'm guessing people would have assumed those losses were to
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: Texas and Ole Miss. Instead, they were to Missouri and
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: South Carolina. But you're 5-2 with two wins over two
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: top 10 teams. Only one other team in the country
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: can say that they have two top 10 wins under
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: their belt. So, you know, all things considered... I think
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: everybody would have been pumped about this.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: In that game against Texas. And I've talked about this.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: I was so impressed with their ability to bounce back
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: and respond. And I think even Gator fans would have
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: to admit that down 17 to three with Texas, having
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: the ball in driving, right?
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Like they were, were they into Florida territory or close
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: to it?
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: Um, close to it.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: All everyone, even UF fans would have thought, all right, go,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: go get Georgia in two weeks, you know, like this
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: thing's over. And yeah, something happened for UF and Texas
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: certainly did their part to, to help with this. But the,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: the thing I was most impressed with more than Jones,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: more than McCray breaking out more than, you know, ball
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: getting close to a hundred yards and kind of reestablishing
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: himself after a couple of off weeks was the fact
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: that they didn't quit and they outscored Texas 24 to seven,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: the rest of the way and found, and it took
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: kind of a, I don't want to say miracle, but
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: kind of took a special play for Texas to even
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: get that last touchdown to, to get it close there.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: At the end, I was really impressed with that.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: And I think it says something about this team more
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: than any individual player or talent.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Level or anything like that.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think Summerall addressed that in the postgame
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: where he said, you know, win aside, this team grew today.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: And we watched a team against South Carolina and against
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Missouri win. go in down at halftime, and come out
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: and then play worse. And he talked about it at
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: the South Carolina game. They were down by seven points,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: and then the locker room looked like somebody had shot
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: their dog. And what a hard place that was for them.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: And he was like, guys, we're down seven at home.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Why do we look like this? Why are we acting
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: like this? So that's a huge turnaround, though, because that
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: was one week ago. So the fact that they were
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: down not by seven, but they were down 17-3– And
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: on the road, and they didn't quit at that point.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: So I do think that's probably the single most impressive
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: thing to come out of this, not even the win,
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: but the fact that they did not quit. And the
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: fact that they were able to come out of the
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: locker room and an eight-minute and three-second drive is incredible.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: That's not Texas making one bad play. That's not Florida
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: getting lucky on an explosive. That is a sustained drive that,
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: was really a dagger to Texas. They tied the game
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: at the end of that drive and kind of sat
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: in the driver's seat from there on out. I do
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: think that kind of took the wind out of the
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: stadium a little bit that took the wind out of
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: this Texas team. It was, it was really impressive how
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: they did.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: They, they managed their comeback, I think.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: And I think a lot of that can be attributed
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: to coaching also the opponent, right? Like I think if I'm,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: if you're asking me to guess from somebody that's not
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: close to the program, not there, then no, when you're
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: down seven at halftime to South Carolina, I think you're
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: starting to look around and say, dude, this is South Carolina.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Like what are we doing? What are we doing?
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: We've done when you're down to Texas, like that's what
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: everybody expected. Everybody expected you to move to Texas. We
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: all picked Texas last week. And so at that point,
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I think there is one on the coaching to, to
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: kind of reestablish like, Hey guys, now seven and a
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: half times, like Not that big of a deal. I mean,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: obviously you'd prefer to be up, but like next time
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: this happens, like it's okay. We're allowed to keep going
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: and playing. And then also too, like you're playing an
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: opponent that it's like, okay, well, we're supposed to lose this.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Let's just go play. Let's just go play and see
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: what happens.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: You know, whereas it definitely seemed like more of a
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: tightening up and they played a lot more. again, tight
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: is the word against South Carolina, second half. And they
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: were loose against Texas.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: It was like, okay, well, this is what's happening.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: You're playing with house money.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: You've got your backup quarterback in who's never started a
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: game in his entire career. You are on the road
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: in front of a hundred thousand opposing fans. And it
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: is Texas. They were the number seven team in the country.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: They were the number one team in the country the.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Week before that.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: So I do, maybe that's part of it. You know, it's,
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: there's less pressure on you when you're playing with house money.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: But I was, if you couldn't get your team to
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: rally down seven at home, it's incredibly impressive that you
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: were able to get them to rally down 14 on the.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Road against, a tougher team.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: Texas has one of the top defenses in the country. And,
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: and again, it wasn't getting lucky that offensive line was
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: able to take care of business against a Texas offensive line.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: That is our defensive line.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, that is much higher rated, you know, they
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: were able to for by and large protect, uh, Jones
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: back there, another really impressive feat.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: So I, It wasn't just that they won. It was
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: how they won.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: It was that they dominated in some areas where on
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: paper Texas is far superior. And they never panicked. And so, again,
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of growth that comes from this.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: I'll get right back to the interview, but first I
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: want to give some love to our friends over at
• 6:14

• 6:37
  Speaker 2: you 15%. Make sure you're using it. We appreciate alumni
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: hall for their support. So one player that did not
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: panic certainly is Tramiel Jones who went 22 of 35,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: 155 yards, two touchdowns did not have a pick. And
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: then also 41 yards on the ground, including a nine
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: yard rush at the very end of the game to
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: kind of seal things. I thought the way that he
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: looked was, was really, really impressive. Just the way he
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: carried himself. It wasn't like statistically insane. There's a lot
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: of get the ball to playmakers and let them roll.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: It presents an interesting situation that I know you've talked
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: about a ton. You did a video on Tuesday morning.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Do you ride the hot hand or maybe not even
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: the hot hand, but the hand that seemed to give
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: you a spark? Does Philo maybe come back and take
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: over the starting job? You've got a couple of weeks
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: to figure it out with a bye week, but a
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: pretty good opponent in Georgia to throw somebody to in Atlanta.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a really tricky situation, and I am
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: glad I am not the person that is making this
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: final decision. But on the one hand, I don't love
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: the idea of a quarterback losing their job because of injury.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: And I don't think that Aaron Filo is one of
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: the top five reasons that Florida lost to South Carolina
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: or Missouri. I also think Jones provided something on Saturday
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: that isn't seen in the stat sheet. I think that
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: there was a spark. There was some intangibles. that he
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: brought to that game. And I think he's a large
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: part of the reason that they won it. Now, it
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: was a huge team win. This defense played a lot
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: better than they have played the last couple of weeks.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: But Jones certainly... played his role, and he played it well.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: There was a couple times he called his own number.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: You mentioned that nine-yard run at the end. There was
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: also a third and 12 that he scrambled on his
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: own and got that extended a drive. And that was
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: incredibly important in the.
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: Moment as well. But this is a tricky situation.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: I think that Aaron Filo and Tramiel Jones are very similar.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: I think their skill sets are similar. I think what
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: they bring to the table is similar. So I understand
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: why Philo got the nod when he did. I think
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: this is somebody who has a better grasp of the offense.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: I might ride the hot hand, though. I think that
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: beating Georgia is an incredibly tall task, regardless of who
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: you play.
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: Either one, right?
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: I think Philo or Jones is going to have a
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: huge ask to beat Georgia, particularly when Georgia just got
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: upset by Auburn, and now they have a week to
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: stew in it, and Kirby Smart is their coach. I
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: think it is a tough position for either guy to
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: be in.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Jones just beat Texas.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: He's got a lot of momentum behind him, both from
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: the team and the fan base. If the likely outcome
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: is a loss either way, I might ride the hot
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: hand and.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: See what happens.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's so tough because we have talked
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: about this on air, off air, different places, but just
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: because we haven't here, There's an aspect of this that
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: makes me think like, man, if you're probably going to
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: lose to Georgia, don't lose the fan base too. And don't, don't,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: I think it would really upset Gator fans who I
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: think you could agree are sometimes can, can rage about
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: things that don't necessarily need to be raged about. Maybe
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: you could say that for every fan base. Don't lose
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: the fan base too.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Don't go back.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Don't change what seemingly worked on Saturday. The other side
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: of that, the other side of the coin is, man,
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: if Philo goes out and practices for the next two
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: weeks or week and a half, I guess, by the
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: time this airs, And is undoubtedly the better quarterback and
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: you get VB three back and you have a little
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: more confidence in the offensive line. And you know that
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: you're John Summerall and you've got a better chance to
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: win with Philo in your estimation, right? Like we don't
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: know that beyond a shadow of a doubt, but if
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: you're John Summerall, you're saying. If Philo gives me a
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: better chance, damn those fans. Like I, you know, it's
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: such an interesting spot for him to be in. I
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: think it's a difficult spot to be in because I
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: don't think he's going to just start the worst quarterback
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: out of loyalty or the worst quarterback to appease the fans.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: But if they're close and you don't want a guy
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: to live, there's so many contributing factors here. Who gives
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: you a better chance to win? Who's going to keep
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: your seat in a better spot? Not that his seat
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: would count, but like, who's going to get who you
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: do want to appease the fans and the donors and
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: the people that are paying for you to have this job.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: And then also the loyalty factor does factor in. You
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: don't want a guy to lose his job due to,
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: due to starting. I'll say it worked out fairly well
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: for Ole Miss. It worked out really well for the
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Patriots back in 2001. Not that I'm comparing, you know,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: Tramiel Jones to Tom Brady or, or, you know, Trinidad Chambliss,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: but it's an, it's not an impossible decision, but it's
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: a really, really tough one either way.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: And you know, I also, another factor of this is
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: we don't even know if Philo will be healthy. Um,
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: in the post game, some all said it's a couple
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: week deal is the way that he worded it. We
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: know that it's his throwing shoulder. We don't know the
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: extent past that. We don't have any details on that.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: So all of this conversation may be for not because
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: it may be Jones by default, but I am glad
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: I'm not the person making this decision. I think there
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: are a lot of factors that go into it. I
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: felt like coach was really careful in the post game, um,
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: to not knock Philo. He truly made a point to
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: say like, hey, Tramiel made some mistakes out there. He
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: knows he made some mistakes out there and kind of
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: give love to both guys, which felt weird in the
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: moment since Philo didn't even play, but I almost feel
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: like was kind of strategic. Like, I don't know who's
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: going to be the guy. I need to make sure
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: that everybody realizes that I think both are capable of
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: being successful here. And if the quarterback battle was as
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: close as we were told it was all summer long,
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: then you can win with both guys.
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: Both guys have won.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: And, you know, so at that point, does it, does
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: it matter who, like, I think the play around probably
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: matters more than who starts the offensive line played well.
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: On Saturday.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: They did not play well against South Carolina or Missouri.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: That's a huge factor.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: The defense played well on Saturday, better than they played
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: against South Carolina and Missouri.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: That's a factor in all of this too.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: I don't Florida very well wins with Aaron file on
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: Saturday because those other things had happened.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Why did they happen?
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: And I know that's a million dollar question that John
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Summerall would like to figure out because he could do
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: the opposite of whatever the hell happened against South Carolina, Missouri.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: But like you were incredibly critical of the offensive line.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: So, I mean, so was I, so was anybody with
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: a pair of eyes that watch this thing, but like
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: you were incredibly critical justifiably. So against the, on the
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: offensive line, on the defense, how it was being called,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: how it was being executed, all, all the things that,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: And then you go play a team that we said
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: going into it last week, you sat right here and
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: we said, man, that offensive line ain't playing very good.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: And you're playing against the best defensive line in the,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: in the conference and that secondary and playing very good.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: And arch makes a lot of mistakes, but that's going
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: to be a tough test for them. And everything seemed
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: to switch. How the heck did that happen?
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: The players executed.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: The offensive line, I think they made far less mistakes
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: than they did the previous two. They kind of reverted
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: back to how they played against Ole Miss and Auburn,
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: where they just communicated better with each other.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: They blocked better. They did their job better. And then defensively,
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: Sarmal was quick to point out.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: That they didn't call the game any differently against Texas
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: than they had the previous couple weeks, but players executed.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: And so I do think I do think that was
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: the difference there. It's not some grand new scheme that
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: was drawn up. It's that players did their job. But
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: that's the hardest part about a rebuild is getting consistency.
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: Out of your players.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: And you can go back and look at Saban's first year,
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: Kirby's first year. Day is a little bit different because
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: they went directly from Urban today, and so there really
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: wasn't a rebuild there.
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: There was kind of a switch at head coach.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: I think you could look at Cristobal at Miami. I mean,
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: his first season was, I think they won five games.
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: Getting consistent high-level play out of your guys is one
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: of the hardest asks of a first-year coach.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: Head coach.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: And so I think they've always been capable of this.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: They didn't play like it the last two weeks, but
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: they did the first four.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: It is incredibly tough.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: And it also factors in the way the other team plays,
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: how you execute, how they execute, how those things blend.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: And I do think that's a really good and valid
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: point by you is coaches don't just, I mean, there
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: are times where coaches will just say, Hey, what we're
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: doing is not working.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: We have to change everything. that doesn't typically happen from
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: week to week.
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: And, and then you'd take the time to relearn the
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: new thing, just all of that. So much of it
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: comes down to execution and you, I mean, look at
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: any team, any team that's been close in certain games
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: and didn't find a way to get it done. I
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: think about Florida state, I don't think they did a
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: ton differently. I think they executed.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Really, really well.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: And the reason they ended up not winning on Saturday
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: was because they didn't execute in a couple of key moments.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: You look at their games, theirs and anyone else's games.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Notre Dame had a chance to beat BYU and didn't
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: execute in certain moments, right? Didn't get the job done
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: in critical moments. And that's typically what it comes down to.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: And there's more because of the parody in the league
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: right now, not just in the SEC, but everywhere. That
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: is so crucial. I'll tell you, Tennessee, we talked about
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: this on your show and other places. Tennessee's an underdog
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: at South Carolina. But if, if they execute a little
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: bit better than South Carolina does, they're going to win.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: They're going to be six and one. Like that's just
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: as straightforward as it gets.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: And if South Carolina executes a little bit better, kind
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: of like they did against Florida, they're going to win. Like,
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: it's just not so much gets made of coaching and
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: scheme and this and that and the other, it all kind.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Of comes down to that at the end of the day.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: So I think it's a good point.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Uh, last thing that I'll get you out VB three,
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: you expected back, uh, in this game. And then where
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: are they from a health standpoint?
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I do expect that BB3 will be back. I
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: had always heard from the beginning it was a two-
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: to four-week deal. And, you know, you need to practice
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: the week before you play. And so last week would
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: have been– when practice started, it would have been just
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: at that two-week mark. And so it didn't surprise me
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: that we didn't see him. I do know that he's
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: doing absolutely everything in his power to get back. This
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: bye week comes at the perfect time for that. So
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: I think that we get him back against– against Georgia.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: I know Bailey Stockton has been banged up the last
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: several weeks. He's appeared, I think the last two weeks
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: in a row on the injury report, but then played.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: So hopefully this bi-week comes at a good time for
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: him to kind of recover from, um, from that. And
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: I do think Florida is relatively healthy. Aaron Philo, we
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: have so little information on, so he would be my, the,
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: the injury report that I'm the, the, least confident on
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: because we have the least information about how he's doing there.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: But I do think getting VB3 back, Florida has not
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: had Dallas Wilson, Eric Singleton, and VB3 all available and
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: ready to go. I'd bought into that since the first
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: series of the first game. So I would assume there's
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: a whole chapter of the playbook that we have yet
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: to see because it involves using all of them at
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: the same time and there hasn't been the availability.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: The chess match between Kirby Smart, Glenn Schumann, and then
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Buster Faulkner on Saturday in Atlanta is going to be phenomenal,
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: especially if Florida Duds have all of those pieces.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: It's a huge piece of this.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: Obviously, we will talk about the world's largest outdoor, I guess,
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: indoor cocktail party this year next week. But what do
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: you got coming for people this week? What have you
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: done so far? And where can people find you?
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: You can find me on YouTube or on Spotify, Apple Podcasts,
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: A Peek Inside Gator Football. We have got a lot
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: of cool things coming out. I just did a piece
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: on the Middle Eight, which I find so fascinating. But
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: every Middle Eight that Florida has dominated this season, they
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: have won.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: There's a lot of correlation there.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: Talked about this quarterback as well. Going to have some
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: interviews coming later in the week. Going to talk a
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: little recruiting stuff. It's kind of a good reset week
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: now that we have the buy. We can kind of
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: do some housekeeping. I want to know what's going on
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: with recruits. I think our fans do too.
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: Lots of cool stuff.
• 19:15
