The Predictions: Defense to lead Florida past Georgia in their rivalry

in Sports/Top Headlines by

As it turns out, Treon Harris might be the wise old man at quarterback in the Georgia-Florida game. Harris will start for the second straight game against the Bulldogs, which isn’t a lot of playing time. But it’s more than Faton Bauta, who internet reports say will lead the Bulldogs. No, really. Bauta is a junior who has been Georgia’s third team quarterback all season, although he has yet to throw a pass this year. In his career, he’s thrown…

10 Questions: Can Treon Harris beat the Georgia Bulldogs once again?

in Sports/Top Headlines by

Can Florida quarterback Treon Harris do it again? Last year, Harris led the Gators to a victory over the Bulldogs. This week, he tries to do it again. Oh, the bloom is off Georgia a bit, and Nick Chubb is injured, but the Dogs are still a talented team. The truth is that Harris didn’t do a lot in that game, throwing for only 27 yards. He spent most of the day handing off to Matt Jones and Kelvin Taylor.…

Predictions: Georgia Tech may run FSU ragged, but Seminoles should win

in Sports/Top Headlines by

Here’s a prediction: Frustrated. Here’s a prediction: Tired. Here’s a prediction: Relief. For FSU, yes, the prediction is that the team will defeat Georgia Tech to move to 7-0, but it won’t come without some spotty moments. Even in a down year, the Yellow Jackets can do that to a team. Their option can look like a shell game where a defense always seems to be tackling the wrong guy. This is the problem with playing against an offense that…

10 Questions: Can Miami stop Clemson’s DeShaun Watson?

in Sports/Top Headlines by

Can Miami slow down talented Clemson quarterback DeShaun Watson? No one else has. So far, Watson has been the best weapon on the Clemson team. He’s coming off a 420-yard effort against Boston College, and he’s the top argument that the Tigers could stay undefeated. But Watson has thrown seven interceptions this year, and the Hurricanes lead the nation in turnover margin. After losses to Cincinnati and FSU, Miami could use a signature win. And they have a pretty good…

One of Everett Golson’s strongest traits? A lack of turnovers

in Sports/Top Headlines by

The eyes look the same. The moutn is familiar. There is something about the way he grins. But to a Notre Dame fan, is this really Everett Golson? So far, Golson has been more than a transfer quarterback for FSU, he’s been a transformed quarterback. No, you can’t judge him just by wins – Golson won at Notre Dame, too, including reaching a National Championship game. But so far, Golson has figured out a way to protect the football in…

Future opponent Dabo Swinney says Dalvin Cook is the best

in Sports/Top Headlines by

Clemson coach Dabo Swinney has voted, and he says that FSU’s Dalvin Cook is the best running back in the country. Swinney, of course, is a bit biased. He has a game coming up against FSU, and therefore, he’ll have to stop Cook. He does not have to worry about LSU’s Leonard Fournette, Ohio State’s Ezekial Elliott, Utah’s Devontae Booker or Stanford’s Chris McCaffrey. Swinney said that Cook “is the best running back in the country” while discussing the job…
