There were a lot of career firsts in Florida’s 33-8 victory over Tulane in the Gasparilla Bowl. Myles Graham and Alfonzo Allen recorded their first career interceptions while KD Daniels and Anthony Rubio found the endzone for the first time. But perhaps the most exciting singular play throughout the contest was a one-yard carry.

Late in the 4th quarter with the game out of reach, No.21 was called to execute a 3rd and one from Tulane’s 26-yard line. Except it wasn’t freshman running back KD Daniels (who also wears No.21), it was 6’5, 449-pound defensive tackle Desmond Watson.
