NCAAF: Georgia at No. 11 Florida in Pivotal SEC East Clash

NCAAF: Who Will Kick for the Gators Versus Georgia?

The No. 11 Florida Gators (6-1) have nearly clinched the SEC East Division for the first time since 2009. A win this Saturday against the rival Georgia Bulldogs (5-2) would put Florida two games up with two games left in the season.The Gators are a 3 point favorite at EverBank Field in Jacksonville, Florida. The game is scheduled to start at 3:30 PM ET and will be broadcast on CBS.

Florida has made quick progress in its first year under head coach Jim McElwain. The Gators had their undefeated season spoiled two weeks ago by the LSU Tigers, who prevailed 35-28 at home. McElwain used the bye week to prepare for Saturday, as did Mark Richt and the Bulldogs after scraping past the Missouri Tigers 9-6. The Gators need a new kicker after Jorge Powell suffered a season-ending knee injury in their Week 7 loss to the LSU Tigers. Redshirt junior PK Austin Hardin hasn’t been healthy or consistent enough and time is running out for Florida. If Saturday’s game turns into a similar kicking duel, the Gators could be in trouble. They held open tryouts after PK Jorge Powell was forced out of the LSU game with a season-ending knee injury. Redshirt junior PK Austin Hardin has been injured and ineffective, leaving the identity of Saturday’s kicker unresolved.

The Georgia Bulldogs is reeling from the loss of running back Nick Chubb and didn’t score a touchdown in its first game without him, beating Missouri 9-6 in a boring game. Florida may be the favorite in the game, but because we’ve seen it many times before in this series, anything can and will happen.
