"Blood is definitely going to run hot this weekend. I'm sure at some point
something will happen that everybody will say was uncalled for or the emotions
got the best of us, whether it's on their side or on our side. We've
both been caught doing some antics down there. My freshman year we ran
out on the field. The year after that they had us blown out by a pretty
good lead and they started calling some timeouts late. But all that's out the
window and it's a new year and we're going to come and we're going to
play.

On when he first realized the intensity of the Georgia-Florida rivalry . . .
"I got my first taste of it when I was coming out of my junior year of high
school in a Nike camp down in Gainesville. Me and Logan [Gray] and our
running back went down to Florida and we were touring everything. Logan
already had an offer and they were debating offering me because they had
already signed Aaron Hernandez, who was obviously an outstanding player
for the. I remember Coach [Dan] Mullen was recruiting me and Logan and I
didn't feel like I got treated very well down there. Coach [Urban] Meyer
didn't take time to talk to me and that's something that resided in me. And
when I did commit to Georgia all I heard was "y'all have to go get Florida." I
realized at that time it was a big rivalry, but I didn?t realize how deep that
hate was between us.

"Since I've been here there's a lot of rivalries I've really bought into. All the
rivalries really. They're all going to stay with me throughout my lifetime.
They're a part of me and I'm a part of them. But I don't think any of them
run quite as deep as Florida. It's something that I've bought into fully. I
don't care if I'm in Missouri or I'm in Georgia, I don't care where I'm at, if
I see Florida on somebody's shirt or even a license tag, I'm going to slide
them a little look. That's the way it's going to be. And if they have
something to say about it I'm going to say something back. At the end of
the day I'm always going to be a Dawg and everybody's going to know
that.
