Saturday’s affair between Georgia and Florida is traditionally a contest steeped in emotion. With both teams having similar talent-levels, the difference in the contests often come down to execution.

Georgia possesses a dynamic backfield — including the likes of Nick Chubb, Sony Michel, and Brian Herrien. With freshman signal-caller Jacob Eason commanding the offense, it wouldn’t be a shock to see the Bulldogs take pressure off of the young quarterback by running the ball and controlling the clock.

Florida head coach Jim McElwain was asked about the Georgia offense on Wednesday during the weekly SEC teleconference. He feels as if there’s one area the Gators need to compensate for:

“[Georgia’s] ability to run the ball and run it well, knowing the guys they have and having a QB that may have the most talent as any in the country. Knowing when the right time to call certain things. A lot of talent, when they are running the ball, they are special.”

McElwain’s defense ranks No. 22 nationally in stopping the run — and No. 2 overall in total defense. Conventional wisdom suggests Florida trying to take away Georgia’s penchant for running the football.

If it can do that, it’ll force a freshman quarterback to try and beat the insanely talented Gators’ secondary through the air.

This is a scenario Florida would love to encounter.
