Jalen Tabor ‘guarantees’ Florida will play LSU this season

On Thursday, the SEC announced that LSU and Florida will not play Saturday. Tigers AD Joe Alleva said it’s very unlikely that the game will be rescheduled.
That’s not stopping Gators CB Teez Tabor from making a bold prediction that the teams will meet in 2016 – Dec. 3, 2016 to be exact.
UF vs LSU SEC championship mark my word

Tabor’s prediction is particularly bold because Florida and LSU do not control their paths to Atlanta, both teams would need outside help. Since the Gators lost to Tennessee (5-0, 2-0 SEC) in Week 4, UF would need the Vols to drop two games in order to be in the driver’s seat. Auburn, which is 1-1 in conference play, similarly holds a head-to-head tiebreaker over LSU. Both Tigers teams currently trail Alabama (5-0, 2-0) and Texas A&M (5-0, 3-0) in the SEC West.
In other words, that’s four teams Tabor managed to troll in one tweet.
