• Smith said he’s sure the game against Florida is personal for former Gator Trevor Etienne.

• Smith (a Florida native) said he watched Florida growing up but was never a fan.

• Speaking of personal, Smith said the team with the Gators is a personal one for him.

• Smith said it would “mean everything” to the Senior Class to finish undefeated against the Gators for the first time since 1983.

• Smith said his first-down catch against Texas on 3rd-and-10 was bigger for the team than it was for him as an individual. He qualifies his statement, saying “It would have been big if I had dropped it.”

• Although it’s a big game, Smith said it’s important that the Bulldogs treat it like any other game. “We just have to take their punch,” he said.

• Smith said his goal for this year was to become a better leader and a vocal player on the field. “That was a big step I had to take,” he said.
