UF vs Missouri: Gators & Tigers have DANGEROUS Game & Experts Reveal Why! · SEC Football Addiction

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: First up, listen, even as a rival, I believe in
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: giving credit where credit's due. I'm leading this thing off
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: with the Florida Gators. I think Texas is the number
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: one team in the country right now based on resume.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: There's not a team in this country that has a
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: more impressive resume outside of Texas than the Florida Gators.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: So that's where we're starting. Even as the Florida hater,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: I've been very impressed through four games with them. So
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: that's where we're starting. Presented by PrizePix2. Not to freak
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: them out, but they know this. They've lost three of
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: the last four on the road at Missouri. John Summerill
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: has come out and talked about this. I don't really
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: buy so much into the fact, like a lot of
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: these players were not even on the team the last
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: time they went and lost there. Some were, no doubt.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: But these are new rosters. These are new teams. Some
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: of those streaks are kind of unlucky because they go
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: across several years. Florida's lost three of the last four
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: at Missouri because they haven't been a good team through
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: those last four years. That's the problem. They are a
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: good team now. However, I'm very intrigued to see if
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Florida can avoid reading their own press clippings, all the
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: rat poison that Saban and Lane and everybody else talks about.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Can they avoid that? Because if they do, I think
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: they're the better team. Austin Simmons presents an interesting challenge,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: but Cole, it's the SEC. Again, it's presented by PrizePix,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: and we'll let you get us started.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can never sleep on a matchup when you
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: have to play on the road following an emotional win.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: And if you want to go ahead and take a
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: page out of the book, go look at what Ole
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Miss did last week. An emotional win at home and
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: then an emotional loss on the road for an opportunity
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: with a team like Florida that has not only a pulse.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: But honestly, it's been probably the most impressive offense with
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Buster Faulkner leading the charge, being able to just show
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: everyone that they're legit. But now you've got to go
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: on the road to a place where, number one, it's
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: homecoming that weekend. Number two, Missouri invented homecoming. They'll let
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: you know that every opportunity that they get. And number three,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: this is an offense that still, even in a loss
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: against Mississippi State, showed a lot of promise, at least
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: at the most important position, that could become a fault
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: for a team like Florida. So... Let's go ahead and
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: talk about it. What is the key asset for Florida
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: to win this football game? Number one, you gotta be
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: able to run the football, and you gotta be able
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: to do it with both Duke Clark and Jaden Bobb.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: I understand that it's a lot easier said than done,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: but let's be real. Until somebody gives you a reason
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: to doubt what 13 is doing and what Clark can
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: do as a number two... You continue to run those
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: plays into the ground and let them get yards after contact.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: That is just something that I think is going to
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: be a preliminary. I don't think enough people are talking
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: about when it comes to like Jeremiah Smith and Kamario Taylor.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Jaden Baugh has done the most when it comes to,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I think, bolstering his Heisman stock. He has 11 rushing touchdowns.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: to begin the college football season in the month of September.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: He could finish with 28 to 30 touchdowns if he
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: continues on this path. You gotta run it. You gotta
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: be able to trust that you can put the offense
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: in short field positions to be able to attack this
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Mizzou defense that has been known for giving up explosives.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: both in the pass and in the run. Now, number two,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: I think this is one of those games where you
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: want to be able to see one of the wide
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: receivers step on up and be that difference maker. And
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: it may not be Verno Brown or Dallas Wilson or
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Eric Singleton. It could be Micah Mays. It could be...
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Why am I blanking on his name, TJ? Number three.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: You're muted, I think.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I got the Tom syndrome over here.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Is it Bailey?
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Let's talk to.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Bailey Stockton, that was it. One of them can step
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: on up and be that enforcer that allows you to
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: be able to win with explosives downfield. We saw last
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: week that there wasn't one X-factor receiver. Eric Singleton led
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: the team with one catch for 34 yards, but seven
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: receivers caught balls and made plays in space. So can
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: you win with the ability to extend plays down the field?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: The major element that I'm looking at defensively, though, in
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: this game... Can you stop Austin Simmons? Austin Simmons is
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: a good quarterback. Like he plays for Missouri and probably
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: because Missouri gets the short end of the stick in
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: every turn in college football, we don't talk about him enough.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: But he's probably been one of the most improved quarterbacks
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: in college football with 11 touchdowns, zero turnovers. And he's
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: done a really, really, really nice job of finding a
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: rapport with Donovan O and Caden Lee. They're both explosive receivers.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: And the one area that I still have questions for
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: when it comes to Florida's defense is that secondary allowing
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: explosives downfield. So are you able to force Austin Simmons
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: into pressures to where he is going to be throwing
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: off his front foot, missing open targets, and it can
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: lead to turnovers? For Missouri, I say if you're going
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: to go ahead and win this football game, do it
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: on the shoulder of Aaron Filo. If you're going to
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: lose this football game, lose because Aaron Filo just shows
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: up and he balls on out. Take away the run.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: And that's a lot easier said than done because nobody's
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: been able to stop the combination of Clark and Baugh.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: And for good reason. They're damn good running backs. That
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: offensive line has been phenomenal. But they got Hopkins coming
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: off the edge. That guy has six sacks on the year.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: This will probably be the best defensive end this season ever.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: maybe besides Cam Franklin, even still you can maybe say
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: that how it's looked so far, that Florida's offensive line
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: has seen. Can you take away the rushing attack? And
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: even if you are bailing on out, Corey Batun making
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: this offense one-dimensional could allow you to figure out either A,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: a little bit more about your secondary, or B, really
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: kind of prove where Aaron Filo is as a quarterback. So,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, like that to me I think is a
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: massive win. in Missouri side, if Aaron Filo is the
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: one that has to beat you, because even though he's
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: been good, he's been good in structure. What happens when
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: you're saying, hey, this is the moment that you need
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: to take on over the game. Third down coverage is
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: going to be really important. Time of possession, I think
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: will be an underlying stat. Explosive plays to the wide
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: receivers is really dire. But the main thing that I'm
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: looking for in this game is what are we going
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: to see in the fourth quarter from the play designs
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: of Eli Drinkowitz, Chip Lindsey, and then the flip side
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Buster Faulkner.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: I'll get right back to this clip from the Power
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: 2 on college football addiction. But first, I want to
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: tell you, we picked everything that you see right now.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you, we all took the more on Jaden
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Ball's touchdowns. We all took the more on Jeremiah Smith's touchdowns.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: We all took the more on Jeremiah Smith and Jaden
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Ball's rushing slash receiving totals that they have there. We
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: took the more on Malachi Toney. I took the less
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: on Ryan Coleman Williams. So go check out the show.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: You can hear what our live predictions were. You can
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: hear our thought process behind all of them. and then
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: go get on the PrizePix app. Use our code HMA,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: play $ 5, get $ 150 in lineups instantly when you win
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: if you place a $ 5 lineup and win using that
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: code HMA only. Make sure that you are on the
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: PrizePix app. All right, now back to the clip. Tom,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: thoughts on this one?
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: I like Florida coming out of Bloody Tuesday. I think
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: John Summerall and company are fired up going into this.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: I feel very confident in a Florida team that runs
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: the ball, plays with a lot of physicality and aggression
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: on the road against a team that is susceptible defensively.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: I agree with Cole. I think Austin Simmons is going
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: to present a very interesting challenge for Florida because their
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: secondary is good, not great. They are susceptible, so I
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: do think Austin Simmons is going to be able to
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: connect on a handful of things. This is a game
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: where Mizzou would kill to have a mod Hardy would
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: love to have him out there. So this is something
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: where it makes them a little one dimensional because I
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: think Florida will just do whatever they possibly can to
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: limit Austin Simmons. And this one, we've talked about it
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: before with a number of different players throughout the sport
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: is that he's going to get his, he's got some
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: talented wide receivers and, Can Florida get pressure on him?
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Can they have him make some mistakes that are going
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: to shorten drives or result in turnovers? I'm very curious
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: to see that. And if Mizzou does enough, to Cole's point,
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: to limit Florida running the football, then how does Philo respond?
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: And so far, he's done everything that they've asked him
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: to do, but he's not been put in a situation
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: where he has to put the team on his back.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: I don't think that situation happens in Como. I don't
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: think that's going to happen this weekend. I like Florida
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: to cover, and I like the over on points. I'm
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: taking the Gators 34-24.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: I will say real fast, the thing that I'm waiting
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: for is that moment that was very similar to Gunnar
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Stockton last year in the Tennessee game, where it's like
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: you knew he was a good quarterback, but what if
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: we ask you to win us one? Can Philo do that?
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I don't know if this is the game, but there
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: will come a game this year that the rushing attack
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: is limited. Maybe it is in Como. If this is
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: the one, I think what we're going to see is
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: a Philo actually stepping on up. Because as much as
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: we can give praise to what we have seen from
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Austin Simmons, Philo has done his job. I think that
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: we've also seen Austin Simmons deliver in clutch situations in
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: a way that Philo hasn't yet. So maybe this is
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: the one, but I do agree with Tom on one thing.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: If this is the game that you're banking on it
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: to happen, I wouldn't. But I would bank on the overhitting.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: The biggest question I have, and my answer, if I
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: answered my own question, would be no. Can Missouri slow
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: down this running game? Can they make Philo get to
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: a point where he's got to go out and win
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: the game? Because I agree, Florida's checked a lot of boxes.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: They checked the boxes of handling bad teams the way
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to. They checked the box of really, I
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: don't want to say dominating, but close to dominating an
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: SEC opponent on the road. I know Auburn scored a
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: couple times late there to make it close, and things
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Florida has to clean up, certainly on defense still. But
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: check that box. Okay, now can you handle some success?
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: We ranked you. And we made you a home favorite.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Handled that against the top four team in a resounding way.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Is there a more impressive win in the country than
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: what Florida did to Ole Miss last week?
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Maybe Texas because it is Ohio State, but the way
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: it looked.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe that, but they also looked clunky and they looked,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: you know, turnovers and stuff. I'd probably say Florida has
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: the single best... Single most impressive win. If you want
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: to say best, because it was number one, I'll buy that.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Start getting that monkey off his back. So the next
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: question to me is, yeah, can Philo go win it?
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Because I don't know if we get that answer this weekend,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: but they've got to go to DKR in a few weeks.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: They've got to go to Atlanta after that, after a
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: bye week, to play Georgia is where that game is
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: this year. Those will be questions that I have down
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: the road. Again, I don't know that Missouri, and credit
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: to them if they can, I don't know that Missouri
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: is the team that's built to limit this Florida rushing.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, they had 300 yards last week. You want
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: to know why Singleton led with one catch?
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Because they didn't have to throw the ball.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Every time I thought, okay, here's where Ole Miss might
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: come back, It was like, oh, there's another 13-yard run
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: by number 13. Or Duke Clark goes for a 20-yard run.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Clark was unreal. They didn't have to run it. Again,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I answered my own question, but I don't know that
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: many teams are built to slow down this rushing attack,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: and I certainly don't know that Missouri would be the
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: one If you're Missouri, are you hoping for a shootout,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: which is scary as hell against Buster Faulkner?
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: But I think that's the thing is that Florida has
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: given up points this year. So you will see Austin
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: Simmons and company connect. And they'll be able to move
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: the football through the air a little bit. But can
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: you bend but not break? I think Florida is still
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: going to give up some points because evidence has shown
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: that they will give up some points. It's just a
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: matter of giving up the back-breaking points, the back-breaking score
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: late in the game. Can you finish? And so far,
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: this Florida team can finish.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: What's funny is that you guys are saying you want
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: to see Philo take on over a game to kind
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: of get that next chapter or that next box check.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: I don't think that you ever have to have Philo
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: do that. I think it's secondary. giving up way too
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: many explosives is a bigger question that I have because
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: let's just say, humor me, you go on a run
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: and you are 11-1 and you make it to the
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: college football playoff and your reward for this epic season
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: is Ohio State with Jeremiah Smith. Can you shut down
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: wide receivers? That to me is what I'm looking for
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: in a game like this.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and if you kind of think about how it
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: might line up, if Ohio State wins the Big Ten,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: which they certainly seem like the favorite to do that now,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Florida might get that five seed.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Yep. right?
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Which would put them up against Ohio State at some point. Now,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: that'd be the semifinal, right? Or, yeah, if they beat
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: the four.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, semifinal.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: That'd be the semifinal.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: What if they're the eighth seed and they win that
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: first round against the ninth seed and then they play
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: the number one seed, Ohio State? Same thing?
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: So, it's a tough road when you get to the playoff. But,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you, their offense would be fun to watch
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: up against anybody. I mean, what we need, and we'll
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: move on from this. Cole will get a prediction and
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: I'll do one too. What we need is a Miami-Florida
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: playoff game since they won't play each other. Florida won't
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: play them in the regular season. Like, I need that.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: Florida wins 34-24.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Have you guys ever seen the movie, or have you
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: guys ever read the book Harry Potter and the Goblet
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: of Fire?
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: I've seen the movie.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: I've read that one, yeah.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Okay, do you know in the book how they talk
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: about the Corinthians World Cup? Ireland wins, but Crum catches
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: the snitch?
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, I think that Austin Simmons will be the more
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: impressive quarterback in this game. I think that we will
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: come away more positively looking at what Mizzou's offense can be.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: Florida still wins by at least a touchdown. I'm going
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: to go 38-31.
