Don’t ask me why, but I think Florida is going to put up a bit of a fight in the wake of head coach Billy Napier’s firing after the victory over Mississippi State. Even though the Gators have an interim coach, a disappointing quarterback and a defense that’s only been respectable against bad offenses, don’t be surprised if this is a close game and UF gives its fans a few fleeting moments of false hope before the Bulldogs remember what a talent advantage feels like.
