3 keys for Georgia football vs. Florida

3. Apply heave pressure on DJ Lagway

The Florida Gators have a new QB starting for them now. Their first starter, Graham Mertz, is out for the season, so that means true freshman DJ Lagway is stepping in and replacing Mertz. And Florida has not skipped a beat since. In fact, they look better with Lagway than they did with Mertz.

Lagway's only start this season came in Florida's last game, which was a dominant 48-20 win over Kentucky. Lagway completed 7/14 passes for 259 yards and also added 46 yards on the ground as well. This wasn't a perfect game from Lagway by any means, but it was a very solid first start of his career.

This game however will be the biggest for Lagway this season. He has not faced a defense like Georgia and has not been in a high pressure situation like this rivlary game is yet. So the best way for Georgia to slow this Florida offense down is by applying a lot of pressure on Lagway.

Lagway is a great player, but he may not be ready for a moment as big as this. So if Georgia can get to Lagway early and often, it is very unlikely that they will be able to stay in this game for long.
