Florida vs South Carolina Game Preview
Why Florida Will Win
The Gators are taking the ball away.
The defense has been a disaster at times. It’s one of the worst in the nation third down stops, allows too many first downs, and it’s getting hammered through the air allowing 220 yards or more in each of the last six games.
It’s a problem, but it’s forcing takeaways with two or more in six of the last seven games. South Carolina might have limited the turnovers to one in the win over Vanderbilt, but it gave the way multiple times in every other game.

What’s Going To Happen
Florida has allowed 134 or more rushing yards in every game but the loss to Kentucky.

Rattler won’t bomb away, but he’ll connect on a few good deep passes and the running game will take over just enough to keep the momentum rolling.
