Aaron Taylor is starting the season off with a big upset pick as the CBS Sports Network analyst made a prediction sure to find its way to the Utah locker room.

Taylor predicted Florida to upset the Utes in Gainesville on Saturday.

“Florida’s going to win this game boys, and they’re going to win it at home,” he said. “They suffered mightily with their culture last year. Billy Napier’s a coach’s son. He came in and knew he had to fix that. There’s a lot of excitement there. There are holes, there are unknowns. Cam Rising is good. Utah is a physical on both lines of scrimmage. But keep your eye on No. 9 Gervon Dexter for Florida, 6-6, 330-pound guy that can get after it off the edge, can play inside. He’s got some versatility. O’Cyrus Torrence came over from Louisiana. You have Anthony Richardson is going to be stretch, stretch play action. I’m riding the Gators all the way.”
