re: Realistically, how big is the gap in the East?

Schedule wise? Yes of course!

Florida plays LSU every year, Missouri plays Arkansas.

I'd argue UF has a higher ceiling than Missouri, but we'll see what happens.

I'm less worried about Mizzou with Bryant than I was with Lock, but... I could be wrong.

Schedule definitely plays a part on it yes.

We were the only team that was close to physically on par with Georgia last year from the East.

We return 3 NFL players on our OL and a 1200 yard back. Add The KB dynamic to that and we will once again be strong in the trenches.

Georgia is clearly the heavy favorite but if a team will knock them off it will be Mizzou and not Florida IMO
