2. Florida has a tendency for turnovers

One of the reasons that Florida lost those games to Kentucky and LSU was because it could not take care of the football.

Emory Jones has had a hard time with throwing interceptions and that has put Florida in a bad position. Turnovers can just be bad luck sometimes, but when they are coming in bunches in multiple games, that is a bad sign.

Florida is going to have to play a turnover-free game against this Georgia defense to have a chance to win. If the Gators give Georgia a short field, that is going to give the Bulldogs’ offense easy layups to stretch the lead.

Jones or Richardson are going to have to play a really clean game and make big plays for Florida to have a chance.

Look for Florida to try and run the ball to take pressure off of its quarterbacks, but that will be difficult against this Georgia defense.
