Florida Gators

26 point victories aren’t common in SEC football, regardless of the competition. So we’ll acknowledge the Gators there. Outside of that, though, this team looks like it’s still playing from Mushcamp’s influence.

Sure the Gators didn’t need much help from their offense, but that’s not the point. Jim McElwain is supposed to be an offensive guru. While that may be true, he certainly isn’t flexing those muscles in Florida.

Although his team won’t by 26 points, his returning quarterback threw for only one touchdown and three interceptions on his way to a 32.3 quarterback rating, according to espn.

Someone please let me know when Florida has an offense.

Impact Moving Forward

Slight momentum bump

Florida won big and moves on to bigger foes — and it’s a good thing they did win.

While Florida began with a soft open, their schedule is about to get nasty. Although South Carolina will be an easy win — Georgia, Arkansas, LSU and Florida State make up their remaining schedule.

Florida could, of course, find an offense and win most of these games. If the Gators cannot, though, it will be a rough second half of the season.
