Bill Bender writes: "Jon Sumrall gets his first look at this SEC rivalry as a head
coach. The Bulldogs have won the last five meetings by an average of 18 points per game. Florida won as a double-digit underdog against Texas. Will Tramell Jones get another start in place of Aaron Philo – who is dealing with a shoulder injury? Georgia had a week to stew about a loss to Auburn."

Bill Speros writes: "Florida and Georgia take 'The World’s Largest Cocktail Party' to Atlanta in the lone SEC game this week featuring ranked opponents. This game is usually played in Jacksonville, but the stadium there is undergoing downsizing and renovation. The Gators toppled Texas in a stunner 27-24 before the bye and remain in win-or-done mode in the SEC Championship Game chase. Georgia nabs a spot in the SEC title game by winning the rest of the way. Our model sees Kirby Smart’s Bulldogs winning by 15.8 points, a sizable value over this line of 10.5. But these rivalry games never go to form. This one hinges on whether or not Gunner Stockton turns over the ball more often than the Gators shoot themselves in the paws with mistakes. Stockton may be asked to carry less of a load due to injury concerns. Florida, meanwhile, has a QB quandary, Jon Sumrall will choose between Aaron Philo or Tramell Jones Jr. to start. The Dawgs’ defense allows just 15.9 points per game. It controls the tempo and outcome again this week."
