I don’t think I’ve ever been less upset about a loss. Really. I would have been more distraught if the Gators had been blown out in Baton Rouge. But, trailing by two touchdowns at the half and coming back to tie the game on the road, against one of the best teams in the country and with all of the week’s distractions was a clear demonstration of the tenacity of this Florida team. This is NOT the Gators we have seen the last couple of years.
The game really came down to a handful of defensive breakdowns by the Gators mostly in the first half.
