Florida Football: Beamer Ball 2.0

ESPN FPI – Florida favored with 66% confidence

Hail Florida Hail – Florida favored with 60% confidence

South Carolina is turning into the ultimate foil within the SEC. They aren’t actually that talented as the Spencer Rattler experiment has gone as expected and they were blown out by Georgia and lost to Missouri last week.

Yet they find a way to sneak up on teams once or twice a season like they did with Kentucky and Texas A&M.

With Shane Beamer as head coach, it’s no surprise that special teams dictate the chaos the Gamecocks bring on a given Saturday.

This is a game Florida football should win and if we are going strictly on talent the Gators should have an 85% confidence meter. But the Gators were blown out by the Gamecocks last season (granted this was after the team had quit on Dan Mullen) and Florida isn’t exactly that strong at special teams.

If the Gators can avoid the chaos, this will probably play out similar to the Missouri game, ugly but gets the job the done.
