What I said on Friday:
"The Florida Gators have to win two of their final three games to reach bowl eligibility. They have an easy one coming up against Georgia Southern — which they’ll obviously win — but then they have to somehow beat either South Carolina or Florida State. There’s no way they beat Florida State and I seriously doubt they can go to Columbia and beat the Gamecocks on Saturday. South Carolina might not cover the spread, but they’ll come away with a win. South Carolina 24 Florida 17"
Florida took a lead over South Carolina into the fourth quarter, but Steve Spurrier and his Gamecocks were able to prevail over the Gators.
Will Muschamp and the Gators are almost certainly going to miss bowl eligibility this season, with a game against Florida State looming in the shadows.
South Carolina keeps their SEC East hopes alive, but they’ll need the Missouri Tigers to falter in the final two weeks of the season.
