TRANSCRIPT:

Andrew:What’s up, Gator Country? Your man, Andrew Spivey, here with Nicholas de la Torre. Nicholas, almost game day.
Nick:Yeah. As we did last year, it’ll probably be my favorite podcast of the year, because we’ll bring in Barrett Sallee, a good friend of both of us, and we’ll talk some Georgia Bulldogs. We’ll talk some Florida Gators, and we’ll refuse to not call the game the world’s largest outdoor cocktail party. City of Jacksonville, grow up.
Andrew:I’m sure, because Barrett and I both share out allegiance of Braves, that we’ll sneak some Braves talk in here.
Nick:I hope not.
Andrew:You hope not?
Nick:I certainly hope not.
Andrew:I certainly hope so. Barrett and I love our Braves. Nick, before we go to Barrett, we’ll bring Barrett on here in just a second, let’s get a quick update. Mac speaks on Monday, brings out the injuries, and surprise, surprise, everybody’s good except for Deandre Goolsby. I think we kind of called that on Monday.
Nick:Yeah. I think the Goolsby one is interesting, because it looked, I was following him on the sideline when he came off, it looked like he had a dislocated finger, and they just popped that thing back into place, and he went back in and played. So, to me, two weeks later, him being in a questionable status for this week’s game is weird, but it’s kind of like we said. How about this? You offer to walk up to Jarrad Davis and tell him, “You’re not playing this Saturday.” See how much confidence you have walking up and telling Jarrad Davis he’s not playing this week, or the same thing for Joey Ivie or Jordan Sherit, any of those guys.
Andrew:Exactly. No. This game, for Jarrad Davis this game is Florida State. This is his Florida State game. This is his rivalry game, because he has buddies that play at Georgia. He has family members that are Georgia fans. This is his rivalry game. This is his bragging rights game.
Nick:Yeah. This means a lot to him, and it’s his last time to play in it.
Andrew:Exactly. You know, Nick, I want to say this real quick, and we got to go to Barrett here, but I think you and I both kind of forgot about the storyline with Del Rio a little bit, about this is a big stadium for him. This is kind of where he grew up. This is where he learned football.
Nick:I wrote about that. Maybe you forgot about it.
Andrew:I’m talking about we haven’t really talked about it on the podcast, you ass clown.
Nick:It’s up on GatorCountry.com, so go ahead and read that.
Andrew:We like to talk about it on the podcast. Nick, are you cool? We going to go on with Barrett, or you got something else you want to say before we go to Barrett?
Nick:Let’s do it.
Andrew:Let’s go to my man, Barrett Sallee. Go Braves.
Welcome back, guys. We’re joined by our good buddy, Mr. Barrett Sallee of Bleacher Report. He hates your team, but he likes Florida right now. Barrett, how’s it going, my man?
Barrett:I’m good. It’s crazy. Florida folks used to hate me, and then I defend Jeremy Foley in the ridiculous LSU/Florida thing, and then apparently I’m a Florida homer. Maybe I’ll be a hater after this week, or this podcast, who knows? People play that card because they have no option, and that tells me all I need to know about their argument.
Andrew:It’s just funny to watch your mentions go from Arkansas hater to Auburn hater to I don’t know if you like anybody, Barrett.
Barrett:See, I like all of them. That’s the thing. I like every team, because they provide storylines, but just beca
