Chris: There’s no sugarcoating this: Florida came out incredibly flat. There was zero buzz heading into this game, as expected given Vanderbilt’s lack of success this season, and perhaps that played a part in an incredibly sluggish start, but there’s also no denying that Florida did not come to this game with its best effort from whistle to whistle.
Vandy took the ball on the first drive and marched right down the field on a well-executed, surely scripted drive, facing little to no resistance from an inert defense that saw most of its motion happen presnap.
