This will be the second season in a row that Florida plays two FCS opponents. Last year, it happened largely by mistake because it scheduled a game with Idaho while the Vandals were still an FBS program. They dropped down to the FCS ranks before the game was played.

This year, the Gators just outright scheduled two. The first, against UT-Martin, will be a laughter. The Skyhawks were among the worst teams in the OVC last season, finishing with a 2-9 record overall.

They did have an offense capable of putting some points on the board last season, but they rarely could stop the opposition, and the difference in line play here will be too great to overcome. This is likely to be a game where redshirt freshman quarterback Emory Jones sees a lot of snaps.

Pick: Florida 62, UT-Martin 7 (2-0)
