Georgia vs. Florida: Gameday Central
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — It’s Georgia-Florida in Jacksonville as the Bulldogs and Gators clash with more than just pride on the line. Kirby Smart’s top-ranked squad is unbeaten and in control of the SEC East for the time being, but a win by Billy Napier’s team certainly could change that for all involved parties.
Put the big implications for this season aside, this is a rivalry game too. Georgia holds an all-time advantage over Florida and has won the last two.
“We’ll start gearing up here towards Florida. Did a little bit of work last week in terms of introducing those guys on Thursday. Today we’ll get back to work on these guys,” Smart said about matchup on Monday. “I know our guys are excited to play in Jacksonville. An incredible stadium and atmosphere. Our players love playing in this neutral site game. It’s just kind of different in terms of the start of it, the fans, the split crowd. It seems to be a momentum flow type of game because the team that has momentum is really at home for that moment, but it goes back and forth. It’s a game of momentum swings.”
“Lot of respect for Billy,” he added. “Always have liked him a lot. He does a really good job as a football coach, as a man, as a person. Worked on a staff with him and admire him and the way he coaches and goes about things. He’s very detail oriented. No stone is left unturned, and they play that way. Have a lot of respect for the way they play. I know a lot of guys on their staff. It’ll be a physical game, always is, and our kids will be looking forward to it.”
