UCF @ UF

Mertz is efficient but when every completion is 6 yards you have ZERO room for error, plus it’s booooring. Perhaps even more than most teams’, Florida’s fans want an adrenaline hit on offense. I think a high floor/low ceiling air raid coach probably would have lasted longer at UF than at most high-expectations schools.

Florida run defense looks slightly better tonight.

Gators looking better than they have all year.

That news is really upsetting after watching our first half tonight...

Please tell me y'all have settled on Mertz

Still doing the two-for-one rotation. UCF may also be, well, not that great, or at the least they do not have a passing game to fall back on. Knights did just score, but i don’t think they’ll have the quick strike ability to come back two more scores.

It would be just like us to peak for the Checkerboard-UT game, then implode immediately after.

Florida decided to spend the entire second half in a 4-minute offense, but UCF is very one-dimensional on offense themselves, so the Fighting Billies will live to fight another day.
