Staff predictions: Tennessee-Florida

Tennessee has dropped 16 of the last 17 meetings with Florida. They’ll be looking to change that trend as we enter a new era of the rivalry on Saturday afternoon.

Billy Napier will make his first appearance for the Gators, trying to pick up the pieces that Dan Mullen left him. He rolls into Knoxville on Saturday to face No. 11 Tennessee, which has quickly turned around under the direction of Josh Heupel.

Can Tennessee get over the hump and beat Florida for the first time since 2016? Here are our staff predictions.

Terry: 31-23, Tennessee

I told myself I wouldn’t pick Tennessee to win this game, and yet here I go.
