We had control of the game. We scored a TD From there the wheels fell off. Brodus missed a PAT. Jacquez Smith gets blown up and Teague takes a bad angle and gets outrun by a HBack. Afte stopping a fake punt, we can not take advantage and Teague gets burned again and Jacquez gets blown away again. Dropped passes. Nothing went our way. I am notmsold on Sal's defense, as our defensive ends/linebackers are too small to takw on pulling guards and tackles. Gators made great offensive adjustments. Sal did not match them. |

This game was a whole lot like the 95 Florida game. Bray was off most of the night, though. And once we got down by two scores, we quit. |

Not enough toughness on either side of the ball. There were too many missed opportunities in the first half, which was a bad omen. |

JH did not have a good game, some really big drops. Then the D just...yuck. Ah well, like I said at the beginning of the season. We were/are going to have a game or two where the offense doesnt click and we get curb stomped. Hopefully this was it for the year. |

We need bigger jack linebackers and our secondary's soeed was rather oedestrian. Teagye does not belong on the field and Waggner us a liability in anything other than cover two zone. |

The saddest part about this is that Bray may not be the pressure quarterback & leader that we had hoped for ... ... and, too many bad memories from 2011 including bad 3rd quarters, Teague getting burned, missed tackles, and ulcer-inducing kicking. (Also, Florida's offense was much better than I expected. Driskell looked like I expected Bray to perform). |

Where do I start....... The play calling was atrocious, Bray is mentally soft, we have no speed in the secondary, AJ Johnson had trouble getting off blocks, but all in all the team played with determination until we were beat. Bray quit after the second interception. We still are a few SEC players short and it is tough to hide the scrubs for an entire game. I said it before and I will say it again, put Teague on the bench and insert Coleman, can he play any worse? The offensive tackles played like my granny the entire game. The offensive line still can not run block and never will be able to because they lack the mental determination to do it. No big loss if Bray goes Pro, a little pressure and he panics anyway. You can have those laid back California guys for I have seen enough. Looks like three more years before we get a full SEC team on board guys. |

I had no idea our secondary was that slow. I knew they were probably the weakness but those guys can't run. |

Agree with most of this, but I wasn't terribly disappointed in our line's play. They created some good holes, but lucky tackles prevented some big gains. And as far as "a full SEC team" ... well ... we had several of them in the stands tonight who are basing their decision upon whether or not this program can win. Losing these games is hurting the recruiting of many premiere players. |
