How does Florida respond to losing 3-of-4 games? It’ll have a chance to bounce back against a very beatable SEC team. Missouri just won’t be making any noise next season.

Florida is going to put up some numbers in this second-to-last game of the year. The Gators will get back into the win column and end SEC play with a victory, officially securing a winning percentage over .500 in league play.

Prediction: Win (7-4, 5-3)

Florida State got the better of Florida last season in the annual year-ending rivalry game, 45-38. I do expect this one to be a high-scoring affair as well, but it’ll go back in the favor of the Gators.

Billy Napier will secure his first win over the Seminoles as Florida head coach and the Gators will end the regular season with another ranked win and an 8-4 record which will surpass most people’s expectations.

Am I crazy for projecting Florida to finish 8-4? Probably.

Prediction: Win (8-4)
