Heading out of the bye, the Texas Longhorns will have already experienced the majority of the season's biggest headaches, having gotten past a tough out-of-conference game at Michigan as well as a back-to-back sequence of games, Texas would've had Week 10 of the college football season to prepare for its back end of regular season games, initially headlined by a home game against the Florida Gators.
But the Gators have found themselves in a strenuous time. Head coach Billy Napier has had to deflect many rumors in the off-season about his job security, as the former Louisiana head coach has started his tenure in Gainesville with back-to-back losing seasons. Unfortunately for Napier, it won't get any easier in 2024.
Napier also faced a rocky offseason, with star receiver Ricky Pearsall entering the NFL draft and high-impact veterans like Princely Umanmielen and Trevor Etienne heading to other SEC schools. Florida did have some major wins, though, as the Gators grabbed the top offensive lineman in the portal in One of the biggest question marks surrounding this game is at the quarterback position for the Gators. Lagway is likely the most talented quarterback on that campus, but sixth-year returner Graham Mertz laps him in experience. Mertz has already surpassed 8,000 career passing yards and was Florida's signal caller last year, most notably carrying the team to a nail-biting win against South Carolina where he threw for 423 yards and three touchdowns, two in the final five minutes of the game.
