Offense F First half: The whole Emory Jones-Anthony Richardson thing was a weird deal, but Florida only had six possessions because of the flow of the game. Florida still almost eclipsed the 200-yard mark. Trent Whittemore had a nice half. Too many false start penalties. Second half: It didn’t get …

The Back Nine comes at you after a weekend that wasn’t as electric as the one before but still packed plenty of fun. And winning is always more fun than the alternative. Because of SEC scheduling, it now feels like the rest of this journey with the 2021 team will …

Pat Dooley Grades the Gators after Tennessee   OFFENSE B+ First half: Florida was able to run the ball as usual, but we still had to simply wonder about an offense with two quarterbacks and how much better it would be with Anthony Richardson. The fumble by Jacob Copeland kept …

The Back Nine comes at you after one of those weekends in Gainesville that we haven’t seen in a while. Just know more are coming our way. Full confession, I tried to stay out of the crazy on Saturday. I’ve seen it enough on campuses all over the country and …

Grading the Gators By Pat Dooley Offense B First half: After a clumsy three-and-out to start the game. The Gator offense was cranking behind both quarterbacks the rest of the half.

The “Friday Fivesome” comes at you as I embark today on the Dooley-Palooza-Tour. Three nights in three Panhandle cities talking Gator football. I’ll try to bring back a better tan. While we are still waiting for the next missile to be fired in the football wars, I couldn’t help but …
