Urban Meyer predicts that 2020 is Florida's year

So Urban Meyer says that this is the year Florida beats UGA and makes it to the playoffs...says Mullen has built a "damn good program."

Florida to beat UGA in 2020

What's the realistic thinking on this?

Defensively, UGA should be as good or even better than last year. Having an elite defense would buy some time for the offense to gel under a new coordinator and a new system.

However, there is the reality on offense of replacing two high NFL picks at the tackles, a QB who played 29 games in the SEC, and the top RB in the draft.

Until Newman proves he can do it against SEC competition, he's a risk. The offensive line seems likely to drop a bit but with Smart's recruiting guys like Truss, McClendon, and Jones, we'll be okay. Having more of a run threat at QB may take some pressure off. Meanwhile, the overall RB group of White, Cook, McIntosh, Milton, and Edwards should be on par with what we've had...though unless White lives up to his pre-injury hype and someone else shows out, we're still not quite at the level of Chubb-Michel-Swift. That was an incredible trio to have at any given point. At WR, I think we make a huge jump from last year, considering the guys we brought in and a year of experience for Pickens, Blaylock, Jackson, and others.

I can see why Florida thinks "this is the year" and they might be right if Newman doesn't deliver. But if Newman DOES deliver, UGA 2020 may be better than 2019.
