When adding the backups, the Gators get a slight advantage in talent and experience on defense, and a slight disadvantage on defense...
The Florida Gators will face off against a similarly talented roster in week 1 against the Miami Hurricanes. By most metrics, the Canes have a slight edge over Florida. The difference may come down to depth.
