We’ve seen two different versions of the Florida Gators this season. They set school and conference records the first month of the campaign, scoring 53.5 PPG with 532.5 yards per game and jumping up to #8 in the country while serving notice as a national contender. 

Then two losses followed to Missouri and South Carolina, where the offense scored only 18 PPG and the defense allowed 83 points and over 950 yards. However, in Austin vs. a Texas team that had been #1 the week before, Florida knocked off UT behind sophomore QB Tramell Jones and 38 minutes of possession.

Former starting QB Aaron Philo, who missed the Texas game with a shoulder injury, is back and will start this week for Florida. Philo's completed 70.5% of his attempts for 1,341 yards with 9 TDs and 3 INTs in 6 games.

Florida OC Buster Faulkner is one of the few people who has Georgia somewhat figured out, as he spent three years with Kirby Smart before going against him at Georgia Tech. As GT's OC, his offenses averaged over 24.0 PPG and close to 400 YPG, and now he has an offense that is ninth in points and 21st in yards.

The Bulldogs are looking to bounce back after their first loss of the season, in which QB Gunner Stockton threw 2 INTs and fumbled — the latter of which led to the Auburn game-winning FG. 

Georgia is third in the country in scoring (43.0 PPG) and second in both yards per play (7.68) and yards per rush (5.99). However, that offense has produced only 44 points over the last two contests against Alabama and Auburn. 

On the defensive side, the Bulldogs are 10th in rush defense at 91.4 YPG but just allowed Auburn to run 46 times for 192 yards. Perhaps that's a viable blueprint for Florida’s leading rusher in RB Jadan Baugh.
