Does anyone really need a setup for this one?
The Florida Gators don’t. First-year Georgia head coach Mike White doesn’t. No fan in attendance at the O’Dome on Saturday — especially not the Gators — does.
But throw away all the bad blood that will be angried up for this game, and you get two teams that have legitimate but long-shot NCAA Tournament hopes playing what comes close to an elimination game for Florida and a fraud check for Georgia.
The Gators are probably better-positioned for an unlikely run to March Madness, but they need wins — of quality, and in quantity — in a hurry.
