Massive road game today, probably The best chance for the Gators to snatch a road win all season.

 

[Joseph Torviso]

As Nappier said in the press conference last week, the Gators need a fast start.

 

[Mark Wheeler]

Here we go. It feels like I have said it a couple of times already this year, but this is an important game.

UF needs to stay on track for bowl eligibility and Napier needs to prove he can win away from the Swamp.

 

[Mark Wheeler]

South Carolina won the toss and defers. Great field position for UF to start the game.

24 yards Mertz to Boardinham.

Arlis picks up where he left off, two plays, two first downs

Sounds pretty quiet in the stadium at the moment.

Mertz didn't have it, but the line pushed him to a first down.

 

[Rafael De Los Santos]

Extra push for Mertz on the QB sneak, O-line looks great to start the game

Max Brown is in as Mertz helmet came off

 

[Mark Wheeler]

After explosive plays to open the game, UF has gone conservative.

 

[Rafael De Los Santos]

As expected Florida runs with Brown in the game, Mertz is back
