Georgia hints at possible QB change for game versus No. 11 Florida

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. --Georgiamight be making a quarterback change before its biggest game of the season.

At the very least, the Bulldogs seem ready to play more than one signal-caller against longtime rival No. 11Floridaon Saturday in Jacksonville.

With first place in the Southeastern Conference's Eastern Division at stake, Georgia coach Mark Richt said Greyson Lambert, Brice Ramsey and Faton Bauta each got repetitions with the first-team offense in practice this week.

"All I can tell you is we've been repping just like last week," Richt said Wednesday, referring to the team's bye week. "We've repped more than one guy with the [No.] 1s. We're going to continue to do that."

Lambert has been inconsistent all season. The Virginia transfer set an NCAA record by completing 24 of 25 passes for 330 yards and three touchdowns against South Carolina. But he also failed to throw a touchdown pass against Vanderbilt, Alabama and Missouri.

Georgia tight end Jeb Blazevich hinted that changes could be in the works.

"I don't know how much I'm allowed to say," Blazevich said. "They're definitely kind of focusing on putting the pressure on guys and everything like that. I'll just kind of keep that open-ended. I don't want to get in trouble."

The loser of the game will be in trouble in the division.

Both teams control their destiny in the East, and the winner will move considerably closer to locking up a spot in the league championship game.

If Florida (6-1, 4-1 SEC) wins its second straight in the rivalry, the Gators would just need to beat Vanderbilt or South Carolina to get to Atlanta for the first time since 2009. If Georgia (5-2, 3-2) pulls the upset, the Bulldogs could clinch the East by knocking off Kentucky and Auburn the following two weeks.

"I don't think there's a need to give all these what-ifs and all that kind of stuff only because if you don't do what you're supposed to do, then you're not going to be talking about it anyway," Gators coach Jim McElwain said. "This is why you get into it, to play in games like this. If you're not prepared and you're scared, then this probably isn't the place for you, because this is the expectation of the University of Florida."

The neutral-site game has been played annually in Jacksonville since 1933.
