I don't want to hear another word about Utah for the rest of the season. They were never the 7th best team in the country. They should have outside of the Top 25, and all of those ESPN talking heads who talked them up only did so so that they could promote the SEC once Florida won.
Emory jones had way to much hype before anything but yea we have good run game, an excellent quarterback , some nice receivers and a physical/ competitive defense !! Everyone settle into they strive and could be something magical
As a Utah fan, I honestly found this game to be pretty entertaining. The receiver losing his footing on the last play was unfortunate but that’s how football goes sometimes. Florida is a pretty good team. They obviously know how to play with elite teams and that stadium is a pretty difficult place to play in. Good game.
To be fair I don't think he could have made the play if he didnt slip. The LB was just sitting on that route and a pass to the TE all the way and jumped in front of where he would have been anyways. Utah was using and abusing UF with TEs all night so he was ready for them to go to one again.
I knew we could beat them. I knew AR wouldn’t be perfect but could and would make plays. It was all up to the defense which looked much better than last year. They look like a strong, well connected team. LET’S GO GATORS!
Bro not sure what game you were watching, but that defense will lose in the sec playing like that. The pic, was good, but the dude fumbled for Utah on the goal line stand. Their run game ran through our defense. We still have alot of work ahead of us despite the w.
AR15 was a man amongst boys. We don't win that game with Emory. Which leads me to ask yet again, what was Mullins thinking? Mullins argued there wasn't even a qb controversy, and Emory was far and away better. Anyone with two eyeballs could figure who the better player was... Mullins didn't care about UF, he cared more about his own mystic as being the QB maker. What a fool.
I’m still sad about the loss, but Utah held their own on the road in front of 90,000+ fans in humid, slippery conditions and first game of the season. All their other games will be a cake walk. Congrats to the Gators, best of luck this season.
@@brookeepling1345 Florida isn't that great to begin with? Huh? An unranked Florida Gators and first year head coach beat the #7 team in the country who happen to have arguably one of the most veteran coaching staff in the business... What are you even talking about?
To both sides played a amazing game. I am a Florida Gator so I'm happy we won. Huge shout to the Utah team they played very well giving conditions and noice. Great game Firm handshakes to everyone 👏
Utah is the defending champion of the PAC-12. Florida finished 2nd to last in the SEC last year and is still probably 4th to last currently. Why would you doubt Florida in the swamp on a season opener? It just means more
Florida isn’t the same team they were last year. They will finish top 10 this season mark my words. A competent head coach and a QB go a long ways. We have both in Napier and Richardson
@@raleighrobinson8860 tell me you don’t know anything about college football without telling me you don’t know anything about college football .. holy shit
@@Him-bl9kx you don't think he feels salty about being pushed to 4th string? I just knew he would be 1st or 2nd string this year now he's sitting at the end of the bench.
This game is what college football is all about! Insane atmosphere crazy back and forth responses from both teams. Richardson is possibly the best raw talent at QB Florida has ever had.
@@Ace2Trill, I mean, he's easily the most talented of the bunch. How many 6-4 235 QBs who can do backflips you know? Compact and effortless throwing motion. Watch it. He'll be the #1 pick.
Yes and also the fact Richardson did not start last year…but that’s ok he’s starting this year…When Burney made the INT at the end I was watching with my family…I haven’t The Swamp that loud in a LONGTIME
Y’all forget the reason the swamp was that loud was because that big ass sea of red shirts there I’m not sure what game you we’re watching those gators SOLD and we’re saved by refs
@@nuggetmuncher2829 A lot of calls were against Florida. Like the extra time out the utes got..Like the “catch” that clearly showed the ball hitting the ground. And the Ute fans were loud, but not at the end of the game after the interception. There’s crybaby fans in every fan base. Why can’t you just admit both teams played well?
Such a fun and exhilarating opening game! Both teams played extremely well with very little flaws for the season opening! As a Gator I always hope they will pull through but that was amazing. AR is a beast and force to be reckoned with. This game definitely got me stoked for the season!
This was such an exciting game. Everything CFB should be about (all that energy from the crowd, and all that momentum in the game)! So glad the sport’s back :D
Great game. Utah gave away 8 points that would have made the difference, but then again hindsight is 20/20 so congrats Gators. Utah will rebound and easily win the Pac-12 but will it be enough to get to a play-off? Really depends on how well Florida's season goes. I have to root for them to do well!
@@shadowsayer1516 Also the turnovers inside the red zone. I'm a PAC-12 fan and honestly disappointed in Utah for not winning this one--they clearly have the better team. But Gators are a hard place to play
Had Cam just taken his time a bit more without forcing it, we could’ve at least won the game or tied it. I’m still very salty. Great game from Florida. Richardson is special. Heisman candidate for sure.
If this was in Utah, this would have been different and they have nothing to be ashamed of losing in Florida. They have a good team and will dominate the PAC-12 again. The Gators have a chance to be really good. Make no mistake, Utah is a dam good team. Go Gators!
I saw that too. Absolutely hilarious. I feel like I’m owed money from the people who said they’d bet everything that Utah would stomp Florida. Embarrassed for them
When were Utah fans hating on Florida? If you mean before the game somewhere, can't blame them really. It's not a fan base used to high expectations. But just remember CFB fans, Playing an unranked SEC team is like playing a mid to lower ranked team generally speaking. The only conference that sniffs the competitiveness of SEC football is the Big Ten I suppose. They do their sniffing with Pinnochio noses tho. Also if you're a true fan of any SEC team especially one that's been on the ropes (like UF) for the last decade, you've probably developed some thick skin when it comes to trash talk.
@@reclaimamerica9527 it would be hard to miss Utah fans/gator haters hating on Florida if you were actively on that live RU-vid chat session. There were a lot of people dogging on Florida saying how it was going to be Utah 47 Florida 0 and how they could bet all sorts of money on Florida losing and losing bad. People underestimating Florida is just annoying and has been proven to be mistake time and time again.
Alabama fan here. Best play was the near sack fake throw spin out filaaay dart to wide open receiver eating a sandwich in the end zone. Hopefully Florida can keep the momentum and be a contender in the SEC. Utah played hella good. I remember they beat us in a bowl game a couple years back in the Sugar Bowl
What a Game...Florida QB #15 put on a Heisman showing imo...great decision making, great running, passing off balance etc. This team was ranked too low but proved themselves last night. The defense stepped up in pivotal moments
Utah is a tough and well coached team. They really came to play and had Florida on the ropes at the end. Amari Burney (#2) was chasing the Utah tight ends all night but he got his revenge with the interception in the end zone to dash Utah's hopes. Great game!
It feels so good to have a QB who is not afraid of the moment. Down 4 with 6:00 to go it was obvious that AR wanted and loved every second of that game winning drive. Holy cow y’all, we have a freaking superstar as a QB again and he’s wearing #15 🥲
Letting those big runs and first downs on 3rd down, I thought the same but burney was being burnt by those talented TEs all game he got his revenge and stepped up and made a big play when we needed it. Big time players make big time plays, that pick will set the defense on fire and could be a catalyst for them to play better going forward, and give them the confidence that they can hang with any top ten team in the nation, something that was missing the past couple years
As a Gator fan 15 made me proud and our offense is there especially the run game we just need to be able to stop the run our secondary is good I’m just worried about the front 7 but great win boys Go Gators 🐊
PAC 12 is a joke…. Oregon utterly embarrassed by Georgia and then the pre-season favorite falls to what was supposed to be a rebuilding Gator team. As a UGA fan, I saw a lot of improvement in Florida especially from a discipline/aggressiveness standpoint. Anthony Richardson is definitely a beast and should have a monster year if healthy. Looking forward to the matchup in Jax.
We're coming for you again DAWG it doesn't matter what you are ranked. Didn't you just scrape by 6-7 Florida last year yourselves? I agree with you that the PAC is a joke, and that SEC football dominates. But other than that there will come a time when you are looking up at us again, until then we'll do our best to smack the dog in the nose with with a newspaper(AR15) and ruin your season.
@@cerberus2654 I agree, but Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky and maybe even South Carolina will almost certainly put up a better fight than Oregon did. That was pathetic haha
@@michaelbarnett2527 we playin in the swamp this year we always have issues in the swamp but when y’all play in BR we cruise though y’all it’s pretty interesting how it’s back n fourth like that
Oh yes, I do indeed remember this.. this was when everyone thought that QB for the Gators was going to be their savior, it's been a sad time for the Gators since ole what's his name played there.. a splendid game this was, yes
