Georgia-Florida preview: Dogs 3-17 in past 20 meetings but favored in this one
(Note: Please join the conversation on Jeff Schultz’s live blog during the game.)
Georgia vs. Florida at a glance:
3 storylines
- 1. Two unranked teams streaking in different directions. For the first time since 1979 –- the year before Herschel Walker showed up in Athens — Georgia and Florida will meet with neither team ranked in the national polls. And yet, in this crazy SEC East season, the winner of the game between the Bulldogs (4-4, 3-3 SEC) and Gators (4-3, 2-3) will remain in contention for a berth in the SEC title game. Georgia is 3-17 vs. the Gators in the past two decades and 2-7 under coach Mark Richt, so Bulldog Nation descends on Jacksonville with wariness, despite the Dogs bringing a three-game winning streak and the Gators a three-game losing streak into the game.
- 2. Washaun Ealey’s status. Ealey had a career game last week, running 28 times for 157 yards and a UGA-record five touchdowns at Kentucky. But, typical of how things have gone with Georgia’s running backs this season, he injured his right knee (sprained MCL) in the fourth quarter. He has been limited in practice this week, and although Richt has said he expects the knee to improve by game time and Ealey to play, the situation bears watching. Caleb King’s return from a two-game suspension could be well-timed.
- 3. Watch the turnovers. In the past two Georgia-Florida games, the Bulldogs committed eight turnovers (four in each game) and the Gators none. That helps explain why Florida won those games by a combined score of 90-27. This season, the Bulldogs are plus-7 in turnover margin, a drastic improvement from last year’s minus-16. And on its current three-game winning streak, Georgia has won the turnover battle by a combined 9-1, the one turnover being a ricochet of an onside kick by Kentucky. The Bulldogs cannot afford a turnover relapse in Jacksonville.
A Georgia win would …
- Force the Bulldogs to pull for Arkansas to beat South Carolina on Nov. 6 and Florida to beat South Carolina on Nov. 13, because Gamecocks losses in those games could send Georgia to the SEC title game.
- Be the Bulldogs’ fourth consecutive SEC victory, which would be their longest single-season SEC win streak since 2007.
A Florida win would …
- Put the Gators in position to clinch the SEC East title by beating Vanderbilt on Nov. 6 and South Carolina on Nov. 13.
- End the Gators’ longest regular-season losing streak since 1988 at three games.
Keep an eye on …
- For Florida: Junior running back Jeff Demps, who won the 2010 NCAA championship in the 100-meter dash with a blazing time of 9.96 seconds, has been slowed by a sprained foot since the third game of the season. But he benefited from an open date last week and is expected to be at or near 100 percent. He has averaged 7.3 yards per touch as a running back in his career, tied for No. 1 in the nation among active RBs with at least 250 touches. In addition, Demps has averaged 32.5 yards on eight kickoff returns this season.
- For Georgia: Wide receiver A.J. Green almost surely will have to make some big plays for the Bulldogs to win. In the game’s most compelling individual matchup, he figures to be primarily defended by Gators cornerback Janoris Jenkins, perhaps the SEC’s best corner other than LSU’s Patrick Peterson.
The numbers game
- 14-4: Florida’s all-time record vs. Georgia when the Gators have a bye week before the game, as they did again this time.
- 117.9: Florida quarterback John Brantley’s pass efficiency rating, which ranks 10th among SEC starting quarterbacks and well behind Murray’s 157.
- 42.2: Third-down conversion percentage by Georgia opponents this season, the highest against any defense in the SEC.
History book
- Last meeting: Florida won 41-17 last year as Georgia threw four interceptions and committed nine penalties for 87 yards.
- Series record: Georgia leads 47-39-2, including 40-37-1 in Jacksonville.
The bottom line
Despite the Gators’ recent domination of the Dogs, Vegas has Georgia as a 2 1/2-point favorite. Proving, if nothing else, that a three-game winning streak is more attractive than a three-game losing streak.

47-39-2. Man that number has shrunk. We need to score early. If Ealey can’t go we need to throw the ball more, especially since King does a much better job of picking up the blitz. We need to turn Aaron loose running the ball too.
We need to worry about what Georgia does and who cares what Florida does. If they can figure out a way to bring Tebow back and play him then who cares. Man up and punch them in the mouth. Time to cry, Rainey.

Expect to see a lot of Demps until we can prove we can stop him better than we stopped Lattimore.
With Brantley, you’d think third and long would finally be our friend. That third down percentage has got to be corrected.
Gotta be physical in the trenches and win the turnover margin. If we force some turnovers and don’t commit any, I think we’ll win. But Florida’s D is probably the best we’ll face all year.

The dawgs D has to come up big in this game w/FL. FL has more weapons than GA on offense and what scares most of us GA fans is poor tackling will rear its ugly head again. Hopefully the dawgs can get an early lead and the D can corral the FL speedsters to win this contest. GO DAWGS.

I have no confidence simply because it’s against Florida. Hoping for win, but expecting a loss until I see otherwise. This isn’t the first time UGA has gone to Jacksonville with the better team and lost. It just seems tht any time a team is having a drought or a slump, they get better against UGA (See TN from last year). Rainey and Demps scare the hell out of me. Do we have anyone on the D that can keep up with them? Bottom line, it just seems that YGA just can’t get over the hump against Florida. I hope I am spectacularly wrong this year.

Dave,
Florida is going to try to get rid of the ball quickly because they know they can’t stop Houston. Rainey and Demps are going to get their yards but they shouldn’t scare anyone… The short passing game could be the biggest problem. I think Grantham will go with the 4-3 a lot at first.

I hope the Georgia coaches read these post, they are great!!! We need more speed on offensive play calling! You can walk around when your losing and expect to come back and win with no time on the clock. It hasn’t worked this season and never in Jacksonville. We need to hurry to the ball and run more plays when possible and keep the ball in our hands. Oregon is a great example, they run a play every 18 seconds!!! GO DAWGS!

Dave,
Don’t be a naysayer. Either believe in the team or don’t. Get off the fence. I’m not being ugly, I’m just tired of the “oh bother” attitudes of UGA fans! Let’s get behind our guys AND coaches 100%! Let them know we believe! Btw, my hubby is a conservative fellow when it comes to pre-game also, so I live with it every day. Dave, are you my husband in disguise? haha
As I’ve said before, this team has fire. I don’t care who our last 3 wins were against, they were wins and on any given Saturday, the tables can turn, so the wins are wins! I’m not even cautiously optimistic about this game, I’m completely optimistic. All we have to do is play like we have been. Yes, the secondary is weak, but we have so many other strengths, they will outweigh that weakness. Agreed, Cuff needs to sit, if not the whole game, then give him 1 quarter to prove himself. I’m not as down on Rambo as others are. I say give him the first half, if he doesn’t produce, then ride the pine (aluminum). Houston will sit Brantley down at least 3 times in this game. AJ, Durham, Charles, Chapas & well honestly, the whole offense will blow up & destroy the gaytors defense. I feel it. No matter what the outcome, as long as we play 4 quarters with meaning & intensity, I will count that a victory. Nothing dirty, our penalties stay low (btw, great job on that factor guys) & we force at least 3 turnovers.
BIG win for the Dawgs tomorrow!!! (totally agree with you jsmithc)
GO DAWGS!!!!

I don’t care who our last three games were against, the boys took care of business in a big way. They played hard all 60 minutes, took advantage of the turnovers. They stuck together and did everything they needed to in order to win. That will all go a long way for the game this Saturday. Sure it might be a tough one but they at least have a feel for doing everything the right way.

There’s a reason why UGA is known as The Cesspool of the South.

Stop complaining ST. Simon , it’s your on fault. You can do something about the littering you just choose not to.
As far as Florida’s record over the last 20 years , It’s not very surprising. Bobo has used the same game plan every year since he has been at Georgia. And Florida has to. Why change when it works every year. And Bobo can’t accept that his genius game plan want work.
If Florida gets ahead and UGA runs the ball , unless they are matching Fla. touchdown for touchdown, UGA better start throwing on every play or they will help Florida run out the clock.

This is a “Statement Game” for Georgia. Losing 41-17 last year was demoralizing to watch and its my hopes that you’ll remember that and return the favor this year. This will be the best year for Georgia to beat Florida despite that though Florida does not want to lose 4 in a row and especially to Georgia.
It will come down to fundamental football and turnovers which we had 4 turnovers last year which fueled Florida. Florida had 210 yds. rushing 164 passing. We gotta stop the run and pressure the QB.
Our Defense has gotta come alive and be relentless like they have the past games. No cheap shots, No stupid penalties and No turnovers!
We had 9 penalties for 87 yds. to their 6 penalties for 49 yds. We were 4-12 on 3rd downs. We have got to establish the run early and then pass on 2nd down to our tight ends and use A.J. Green more but not exclusively because we have a group of great recievers or dump to the backs.
Florida will blitz more often than not to take pressure off their corners but a nice screen to our RB’s will keep them off balanced.
Whether it be Ealey or Samuel, they will be a key and hopefully give us shorter downs on 2nd and 3rd. The Offensive line will have to open up holes so those backs can get good gains and eat up clock and wear down their Defense. Again most every game with Florida is dictated by Penalties, Turnovers and EMOTION.
This game is for all the other times that Florida has whipped our butts, laughed at you in the stands, calling you names, this is for your fans, coaches, your state, and your family.
This is a STATEMENT GAME!

Wastin’ away in St. Simonsville:
“It takes a lot of empty bottles and cans and Styrofoam to make 10 tons,” A.G. “Spud” Woodward, director of the DNR’s Coastal Resources Division, told the AJC. “In an ideal world, every group of students would take the trash bags given to them and police their own areas. You mix recreational beverages and youth and everything together, you don’t get perfection.”
If the bottles, cans and styrofoam weighs 10 tons, how many tons of “recreational beverage” is that?

@Mississippi Dawg
Huge difference between when Dooley coached and now Richt. First, Dooley can’t touch Richt’s winning percentage. Richt’s much higher. 2) Dooley had the benefit of the Gators playing Auburn in a war the week before we played them prior to 1990. We usually had an open week or played vandy when Vandy was really bad. Spurrier changed all that and had the off week moved where it has been 17 of the last 20 years. We have had the open date only 3 times in the last 20 years now. This more than anything else is why the series has changed so drastically. It will stay this way until McGarity has it changed. HUGE DIFFERENCE.

Did Joe Cox really throw 4 interceptions last year? Damn, no wonder we got killed. I have a hard time thinking that Murrary will replicate such atrociousness.

The Gators are a poor team and the only way for them to win is for the Dawgs to self defeat: penalties and turnovers.

The players will put theirs on when they suit up later.

everyone on here still bashing richt and bobo? face facts people when the players put forth some effort the scheme works fine.thats the problem with most of the fans. bear bryants mentality was ill take my players and beat your players and then take your players and beat my players, because he motivated the players to play hard. what we have seen the last few weeks is a group of players finally buying into a scheme and selling out on the field. Nebraska ran the same damn offense for thirty years and were successful. at some point the players and you fans need to quit making excuses and just play the damn game.thank god the georgia players have figured this out over the last three weeks.maybe instead of looking for a new coaching staff some of you people should just find a new team.

Dawg fans should be wearing their lucky red panties by now. The flaming red, frilly ones work the best.
But the dawgs still go down bigtime to the mighty Gators.

UF, UGA, South Carolina… ALL suck. Whoever wins this division will get thumped by ANY of their big brothers in the SEC West. Here’s a toast to UF… Hope they suck less today.

Comments from UGA grad:
Nice game for the Gators because ………….Murray choked. We simply blew the OT opp with his turnover.
UGA played well ………………. given Murray’s horrible throws, the drops and what have you. We CHOKED and we all know it because richt cannot run the corner. I have had enough of this.
Also ………………AD McGarity will not be happy with his man losing for the 8th time in 10.
Goods news…………..AD McGarity is very friendly with MSU’s Dan Mullins, as they BOTH were at Florida together. They will be chatting soon.
Richt’s era has been only fair and he must resign. The UGA alumni are not happy with his 10 year effort. We can do better. He has had his shot and the results are dismal over the last 5 years.
As a gentleman, he sould resign ith the UPCOMING loss to Auburn and the UGA win over GT.
A new UGA football era will begin soon with Dan Mullins as head coach. He defeated Florida in his SECOND YEAR with some one else’s players and last year, Florida AND Tebow were lucky to win vs MSU and Mullins. HE IS A COACH.
The alumni will be heard from now.
Go Dogs.

UGA loses to Florida. Again. Laughable. Do UGA fans consider this game an automatic loss every year?

Biggest heart breaking loss I have experienced in years. I hope the entire coaching staff gets fired. This game wasn’t the coaches fault, but it’s time for a change.
