The current offensive line of Meredith, Thind, Brown, Batchelor and Sorensen has had a very solid week overall, probably the best of the year so far. They are establishing a rapport with each other and their overall confidence as a unit has grown as a result. The tackles, in particular, are facing a tough task this weekend, as Florida’s defensive ends are very athletic and productive, so they need to be ready.
Cory Boyd and Mike Davis both figure to be big parts of the offensive gameplan this weekend. Both played well against the Gators last year, and Florida is hurting on the interior of the defensive line. They will also play a big role in pass protection, as the backs and the tight ends are going to need to provide assistance to the tackles.
Florida is likely to score their share of points in this game, so Spurrier is gearing up his offense with that thought in mind. Carolina needs every point they can put on the scoreboard, and don’t be surprised if you see some plays you haven’t seen so far this year.
The defense is still of the mindset that they have something to prove this week. As has been reported already, Emanuel Cook and Captain Munnerlyn both practiced last night, but it remains to be seen how well they’ll hold up on Saturday.
Based on what I’ve heard, the coaches have put together an excellent gameplan. One that should give them a good shot at notching the victory provided the players execute and avoid costly mistakes.
