Bobby Burton, Rod Babers, and Gerry Hamilton went all-in on today’s massive showdown in Gainesville between Texas and Florida. The vibes? Confident but cautious—Texas has the edge, but the Swamp and the weather are big equalizers. Florida’s Offense = Struggling Mightily QB DJ Lagway has 6 INTs already—5 on third-and-long, and most from clean pockets. Florida is 1-for-27 on third-and-7+ this season. Brutal. WR deep-ball production? Dead last in college football. Lagway is just 1-for-7 on 20+ yard throws. Texas Defensive Edge Rod and Gerry agreed: win early downs and force Florida into 3rd-and-long nightmares. Expect simulated pressures, disguised looks, and DBs feasting on predictable throws. Burke, Simmons, and Vasek off the edge vs. Florida’s shaky tackles is a mismatch Texas must exploit. Special Teams X-Factor Rain and gusty winds up to 30 mph could flip this into a punter’s duel. Texas WR/returner Ryan Niblett’s decision-making will be crucial—field punts or let them go? A wet grass field means fewer bounces, so every choice matters. Texas kicker Mason Shipley remains perfect, while Florida’s kicker has already missed three FGs this season. Score Predictions: Gerry: Texas 23–17 (tough 4Q battle, Shipley wins it late). Rod: Texas 24–10 (Longhorns’ defense dominates, Florida offense never finds rhythm). Bobby: Texas 20–14 (ugly slugfest, but Texas survives). SEC Slate Talk: Vandy vs. Bama: Rod thinks Vandy keeps it close, Gerry and Bobby say Bama covers. Kentucky vs. Georgia: Straight-up talent mismatch—Dogs roll. Mississippi State vs. A&M: Panel split, but all agree it’s a huge pivot game for the Aggies’ playoff hopes. Miami vs. Florida State: Both Rod and Gerry love Miami’s O-line/D-line combo to win in the trenches. The crew wrapped by reminding fans about the Texas tailgate in Gainesville (biggest on campus!) and all-day On Texas Football programming. Bottom line? Texas has the better team, but they need to handle the weather, the Swamp, and a desperate Gator squad. Hook ‘em! 🤘
