Our Prediction: The Gators will start freshman Feleipe Franks under center today after Luke Del Rio suffered a broken collarbone in last week’s 14-point victory against Vanderbilt. Del Rio will miss the remainder of the season. Florida beat LSU in Baton Rouge last year after stuffing Derrius Guice from the 1 in the waning seconds of the game. Even though LSU is a mess right now, I think the Tigers will come out focused and play inspired. I’m not buying into Florida quite yet and I think Franks will struggle against this LSU defense. Now, will Guice (who is questionable) and Danny Etling be able to move the ball? We’ll see. But I have a hunch LSU will come out fired up today.
