The SEC season is over for Florida at this point as New Mexico kicks off a two-game non-conference stretch to end the year. The Lobos won’t be much of a test for the Gators here who have all the confidence in the world with a two-game winning streak and potential division title.

New Mexico will keep things close for a quarter, but then Florida will run away with a huge win and head into a season finale rivalry game oozing with confidence.

Final Score: New Mexico 7, Florida 45 (10-1)

Florida State, like Ole Miss and Missouri, will be led by a new head coach in 2020 as Mike Norvell takes over for Willie Taggart. The Seminoles have been suffering through multiple poor seasons in a row after Jimbo Fisher’s departure and Florida has taken advantage.

I’m predicting a better season for the Seminoles in 2020, but the Gators are playing for a playoff berth here. If the Gators can win a big one on the road, they’ll finish the season 11-1 with a potential berth in the SEC Championship.
