Florida Football: Way-too-early game-by-game predictions for 2020
Ole Miss is in major rebuild mode — more than before. The Rebels hired Lane Kiffin to right the ship after a failed Matt Luke experiment and while I believe they will be better off in the coming years, I just don’t see Ole Miss pushing the conference’s contenders in year one.
Matt Corral is a solid looking young quarterback prospect but he won’t have his best game here against a stingy Florida defense.
Final Score: Florida 38, Ole Miss 21 (7-0, 5-0)
This may be the most winnable Georgia game for the Gators in years as Jake Fromm is gone as well as D’Andre Swift, but the Bulldogs are bringing in a talented dual-threat in Jamie Newman from Wake Forest.
The Bulldogs should still have plenty of depth to just reload on offense and the quarterback position may be even more effective with young talented wide outs as well as a strong offensive line. If you’re Kirby Smart, you have to feel good about the future.
Florida will put up a heck of a fight here, but a late interception on a potential game-winning drive by Kyle Trask will lead to the Gators’ first loss of the season.
Final Score: Florida 24, Georgia 28 (7-1, 5-1)
