There are a lot of obvious reasons why the Florida Gators could overlook Florida Atlantic this week.
There's one subtle reason why they won't.
With all that south Florida talent on the FAU roster, the Gators know they're going to be challenged by players from the state who will be inspired and determined to prove that they belong on the same field Saturday.
When UF coach Jim McElwain said after the South Carolina win that FAU had a bunch of players who wished they were Gators, he wasn't taking a shot at the Owls, he was delivering a warning to his own players: be prepared because these guys are going to give you their best shot.
