COLUMBIA, S.C. — There were moments when the offense shined, and there were others that made Gator fans scratch their heads and wonder how the bright spots were possible.
The defense was smothering, making up for any offensive struggles and keeping No. 11 Florida on the winning end of the field-position battle throughout the day.
And when it was needed, the team found a way to make a play and get the job done.
Those three sentences can be applied to both Florida’s performance against South Carolina on Saturday and the makeup of the team’s entire season.
