Florida Gators versus Kentucky Wildcats Preview
Hector







The Florida Gators are back home for their next SEC matchup versus the Kentucky Wildcats. Both programs are coming off close conference losses as Florida lost to Tennessee in overtime and Kentucky lost to Vanderbilt.



Florida enters this game with a 3-3 record, including wins over UCF, Samford, and Mississippi State. Kentucky is also 3-3, with one SEC win over Ole Miss. Here is the preview of the Florida Gators vs. Kentucky Wildcats game.



Kentucky Wildcats



The Kentucky Wildcats will hit the road to Gainesville, Florida for their first SEC matchup versus the Gators. The Wildcats will be led by their head coach, Mark Stoops, who’s entering his 12th season as the head coach for Kentucky.



The Kentucky offense will be led by their quarterback, Brock Vandagriff. The Georgia transfer earned the starting quarterback role for the Wildcats but hasn’t played well this season. The redshirt junior has completed 59.8% of his passes for 951 passing yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions.



Junior wide receiver Dane Key has been the top-performing offensive playmaker for the Wildcats. Key leads the Kentucky offense in multiple receiving categories. Key has recorded 31 receptions for 452 receiving yards and two touchdowns.



The Kentucky defense is one of the best defenses in college football. The Wildcats rank third in the nation in total defense. They also ranked tied for ninth in scoring defense and tenth in rush defense in the NCAA.



Veteran EDGE rusher J.J. Weaver is one of the leaders in Kentucky’s defense. Weaver leads the Wildcats in sacks with four on the season. Two other Kentucky players to watch Saturday night are defensive tackle Deone Walker and running back Demie Sumo-Karngbaye.



Florida Gators



The Florida Gators are coming into this game looking to secure another victory before heading into their bye week. Florida will have some major changes to their offense and could be missing some of their veteran leaders



The Florida Gators' offense will be led by their freshman quarterback, DJ Lagway. Former Wisconsin transfer Graham Mertz suffered a torn ACL last Saturday versus Tennessee and will be out for the remainder of the season.



Senior running back Montrell Johnson is listed as questionable for this game. Johnson also suffered a knee injury against Tennessee. If Johnson is out, Florida will likely lean on freshman Jadan Baugh and JUCO transfer Ja’Kobi Jackson.



The Florida defense has played great defense in their last two games and looks to continue that trend against the Wildcats. Senior cornerback Jason Marshall Jr. has been a lockdown cornerback this season and has been able to be on an island and lockdown a team’s #1 receiver.



Redshirt junior EDGE rusher Tyreak Sapp has been one of the most productive defensive players this season. Sapp has recorded 23 total tackles with five tackles for loss, a team-high 3.5 sacks, three QB hurries, and a forced fumble. Two other Gators players to watch this Saturday are wide receiver Chimere Dike and linebacker Grayson Howard.

I know he’s only 31 but if this keeps up he def deserves a look at OC for a big time program.

Who is stupid enough to plagiarize Wikipedia? I won't even cite that here when debating you fine people.

But this is really bad.

With the 1984 team. For those that aren’t as old as I am, Galen Hall was Florida’s offensive coordinator and took over as head coach when Charlie Pell was fired. The Gators went on to win the SEC that season (or finish with the best record, depending on who you ask) and also were named national champs by the New York Times and The Sporting News despite being on NCAA probation. I’d like to see some permanent recognition of that great team at Florida Field.

Wow. Not QBU

Rumors floating around with nothing or no one officially announced makes things interesting, exciting and fun.

Two rumors have floated, one is that we have some sort of behind the scenes agreement with a well known big time whale. The other is that Billy is getting another year. At the surface they contradict each other. But… both can be true(pure speculation of course)

What if the whale is Urb or Saban as GM and we keep Billy? 🤔

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall will be active for the first time Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, head coach Kyle Shanahan announced Friday.

Pearsall missed the 49ers' first six games of the season after being shot during an attempted robbery in San Francisco on Aug. 31. He practiced for the first time this week.

Shanahan said the 24-year-old will be a "full go" against the Chiefs, according to Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports.

The Niners drafted Pearsall in the first round in April. The former Florida stud's NFL debut should help a team that's missing receiver Jauan Jennings, who's been ruled out against Kansas City due to a hip injury. San Francisco also rosters wideouts Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel, among others.

WTF is this?

Theo did you vote for this skank ?

Lesco Gators!!

Dan Hicken said he "talked to the boys" and we have a Whale In Waiting to be the next coach. Happens around 1 hr 19 minutes into the show. I have no idea what that means and if Hicken is really plugged in, but the implication is that we know who we want and we've already confirmed they will come. Take it FWIW.

The Florida Gators remain a standard for the college baseball world. D1 Baseball has released its annual list of top-five college baseball programs, and the Gators were ranked third.

It’s been a ride for the program since head coach Kevin O’Sullivan took over in 2008. The Gators have reached the College World Series 9 times during O'Sullivan's tenure. They won the tournament in 2017 and finished as runner-ups in 2011 and 2023. The Gators have never missed, at minimum, regional tournament play. This excludes the 2020 season, which was cut short by the COVID-19 Pandemic. But nobody played in a tournament that year, to be fair.

Also since 2008, 13 Gators have been selected in the MLB Draft.

Donald Trump has had as many as seven private phone calls with Vladimir Putin since leaving office and secretly sent the Russian president COVID-19 test machines during the height of the pandemic, Bob Woodward reported in his new book, “War.”


Than there is this:

One of Trump’s longest-term allies, South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, blamed Trump’s ongoing false claims that the 2020 election was rigged to a cult of personality in which the former president’s ensconcement at Mar-a-Lago and circle of aides and advisers “constantly feed this narrative,” according to the book.

The weekend after Russia invaded Ukraine, Graham was with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, which the senator characterized as “a little bit like going to North Korea.” Graham added that “everybody stands up and claps every time Trump comes in.”

Hey folks, looking to take the bride to the game on Saturday. If you or anyone who you know has 2 extra tickets please let me know or PM me.

Thank you!

UVA HC is retiring Friday. Huge news, this close to the season. We get UVA at home this year.
