Florida Football Confidence Meter Week 9: Georgia

  • Last Season: Georgia won 42-20
  • HFH Confidence Meter Preseason: 5%
  • HFH Confidence Meter Last Week: 8%
  • HFH Confidence Meter Presently: 8%

Georgia is doing the Georgia thing where they win in unimpressive fashion week after week, but the key thing is that they keep winning week after week.

Given the improved defense for the Gators, which PFF grades higher than Georgia’s defense, Florida should be able to stick around in this game for a while.

We still are not convinced Florida’s offense will have enough punch or ingenuity to get across the finish line when all is said and done.
