        • That may have been one of the longest games I’ve ever seen. If the rest of the season even slightly resembles this game, it’s going to be a really, really long season.
          Remember when everyone looked forward to playing Vandy? Starting to think most teams look at playing UF the same way now.

          • We beat the Samford Bulldogs in 2021, but it was 52-70. We may be in for another whipping next week.

    • agreed… seems like all the focus on the culture war nonsense should be redirected toward a better team

  • Is disorderly offensive lack of coordination a crime? Good grief this group of talented players deserve better. Billy at least needs to step aside from play calling just to see how good we are.

  • I thought Napier was giving up the play calling to someone more in tune with the way football is played in the SEC,guess he’s trying to get fired so they pay him out faster!
