Unpossible to know at this point.
I guess it's also possible I could sprout wings and fly but based on the knowledge we have that's probably not happening.
We have 5 years' worth of data to know how the committee thinks. People are so hung up on 2017 when 2 sec teams got in and for some reason refuse to acknowledge that that ONLY happened because ohio state had 2 losses.
The committee is not going to tell clemson, OU, or OSU/Wisc with 1 loss that despite winning their conference they are getting left out in place of a 1 loss lsu that didn't win their division.

Florida gave up like 9 YPC on average in the ground last Saturday

I will watch and, being a UGA fan, will obviously be pulling for SC as if there was any doubt there.
What I'll see is reality set in as UF, a better team, beats SC which is not as good. I'm not taking anything away from SC as they certainly earned their victory, but upsets happen all the time. I'm preeeeeetty sure that the 07 Stanford team that went 4-8 would lose to USC 49 times out of 50, it just so happens that the one time they played stanford ended up winning. The next week they lost to TCU.

I'm gonna go ahead and make a bold statement and say that LSU is a bit better than South Carolina and Death Valley is a little more intimidating than Cock Valley. I'm not worried about this game.
No Cock Valley is more intimidating than your mom's.

LSU did a great job of hitting him at the line in the second half to basically cut his routes off before they began. So I think Muschamp will try to do the same thing and force us to use him out wide.
I think the let down game factor is here in this. Two straight top ten match up weeks is a lot to get up for. So may be hard to have that same energy for three straight weeks. Think it's close till the end but have the same score prediction. 27-17

Nothing intimidating there. It's a very welcoming environment for all comers.

Not if SC wins out
with their third string QB, come on idiot be realistic! Look at the percentages to win going forward with both teams genius!

We’re not on our 3rd string Qb lol
Let’s look at the percentage Georgia had to beat us

well I guess USC's 3-1 record over UF at Williams-Brice since Urban 'retired' as gator coach happened with the Gamecocks just not trying hard.
Will Muschamp was the head coach during 2 of those wins and the other win came against interim head coach Randy Shannon.
None of that matters though as I'm expecting a hard fought game. Not overlooking Carolina whatsoever. They're an SEC team and they got players too.

I know how the internet works so I fully expect people to say this is sour grapes, although it's not, but I don't see SC keeping this within 2 TDs. Last saturday reminded me of the '14 missouri/uf game where all the stats favor one team but the turnvoers and craziness of the game led the other way. Uf is simply a much better team than SC and should have no trouble handling them.
I get where you're trying to come from, but none of the uga posters that have gone with the stats arguement have even attempted to address the fact that we were playing our third string QB for half the game. We literally just ran the ball. It's a lot easier to stop the run when that's all we're doing.
Stats not talked about by uga fans: pre injury
Hillinski was completing 75% of his passes.
Dowdle was averaging almost 6ypc.

I just hope both teams have fun

Pretty sure it’s a coping mechanism.
I get predicting Florida will win, but saying they will do it comfortably by multiple touchdowns screams sour grapes.

What worries me about this game is that trask does get the ball out quick and Florida receivers are much better than Georgia's. That adds up to muschamp going to his tried and true control the game gameplan that never works

because I have an opinion that doesn't shower SC with effusive praise? 2 TDs would be anywhere from 12-14 points depending on how you take that comment..opening line is 7.5. It is really that outlandish to expect the team favored by 7.5 points to win by 14 points?
It'd be different if I was predicting Vandy or arkansas here...but we're not. It's UF, which by pretty much any metric is a better team than SC.

Sure were. What does that have to do with me thinking UF will win by double digits? Because situation A happened does that mean I'm forced to predict situation B will happen as well?
Posted on 10/15/19 at 3:27 pm to WG_Dawg
They really should've beaten us last year with Bentley and that was in the Swamp.
Posted on 10/15/19 at 3:29 pm to WG_Dawg
The line for UGA/SC was around 25. The line for UF/SC is around 5-6 right now
What are you seeing that says this will be a double digit Florida win?
Simply saying “sc was lucky uga didn’t play well” doesn’t mean shite
