Bigger meltdown by ULL imo. Jeezus.

How is a 3 and out, and giving up a TD at the #6 team in the country after holding them to 13 all game a fail? They have no business being in the game to begin with.

ULL ran the ball out - Florida did not call a TO inexplicably until after 3rd down. Punting with 13 seconds left.

Wow. Punt blocked and returned for a TD. Touchdown Gators.

They survive.

And that is why you play in the SUN Belt. Playing scared is not the right way to play football. They should have tried to air it out and get atleast a FG try. They got what they deserved for playing scared. Flordia should still drop, but the SEC coaches will make sure that doesnt happen.

They couldn't pass the ball the whole game, and had no timeouts. They were in the game because of their D and rushing decently well. They had to rely on what got them there.

They had a much better shot to try and win the game with that 1:44 on the clock, then they did in OT. All momentum was on Florida side, the new QB had worked himself into a rhythm Just my opinion. They should have at least tried on first and second down to pass. You have to believe in your players, and that coach didn't. I don't like when underdogs teams playing with house money play scared and ULL played scared.

Can't believe the way that UF game ended. Still a hugely embarrassing showing from one of those Elite SEC defenses we hear so much about. Florida really needs to start scheduling some weaker out of conference opponents to give themselves a break from these kind of tough games

He did believe in his players - his teams strength was obviously the D and special teams, and he relied on them to finish the game. Talent won out in the end. Tip my cap to them for even being in it, and I can't blame a coach for relying on what got him to that place to finish it.

Stanford up 14-0 on OSU. It is pretty beneficial for us for Stanford to eliminate OSU as a top 10 win for Oregon.

They had already thrown for plenty of yards 171 compared to 96 rushing. So running and defense wasn't all that got them there. They had plenty of time even without time outs. The kicker had already made a 49 yard FG. They played scared and got what they deserved. I'm sorry we disagree, but it doesn't seem this is going anywhere. So, ill just agree to disagree.
