I wrote about DJ Lagway, joy in the Swamp, and how you know special when you see it Saturday Down South saturdaydownsouth.com/florida-footba…

Graham Mertz will start. DJ Lagway will play. What might that look like? My latest Saturday Down South saturdaydownsouth.com/florida-footba…

Should NC State coach Dave Doeren be on the hot seat? Our Neil W. Blackmon says yes. saturdaydownsouth.com/sports/should-…

Great journalism. Fascinating story.

Texas A&M’s big mismatch, DJ Lagway’s role in making Florida more multiple, and more- my keys to Gators and Aggies Saturday Down South saturdaydownsouth.com/florida-footba…

Any Finebaum segment with the great Nick de la Torre and Jesse Simonton is a good segment

Yes- you can have a package for Lagway. But I agree with Will Miles that big issue with giving Lagway “specific possessions” is that his skillset & Mertz’s overlap significantly. So rotating QBs doesn’t really make Florida more multiple. It just risks breaking rhythm.

Still time for my keys to the game — Gators and Aggies for the 5th time since A&M joined the SEC. (A&M has played Georgia once) 🤷‍♂️

The package should be four quarters.

DJ Uiagalelei is averaging 2.2 yards per throw with an interception. My goodness what a mess in Tallahassee.

If the score holds in Tallahassee, the Gators and Noles will have lost 10 consecutive games against FBS foes entering Florida’s home game vs. Texas A&M. Weird times in the sunshine state.

Gators go 5 and out in first drive for Mertz, who missed a wide open receiver on 3rd down. Damage was done on bizarre 2nd round delay read run at the worst part of Florida’s OL.

Not sure what happened to Castell on that play but he is hearing about it. Devin Moore is heated. 10-0 Aggies, who are dominating all aspects of the game.

Another sold out crowd- despite a trajectory toward a 4th straight losing season. A burgeoning NIL collective built by hard work and fan passion. World class facilities. Miss me with the “toxic fan base” narrative. Gators fans just want a return on committed investment.

Texas A&M has 302 yards in the first half with a QB in his first start. Aggies lead 20-0. Barring a stunning turnaround, Florida will fall to 5-6 in the Swamp vs. power conference opponents under Napier. Gators have lost 6 straight vs. FBS foes. What a mess in Gainesville.

For Florida, it’s just a math problem now, imo. Napier buyout is just above 26 million dollars at this point, half of which is due up front, plus staff buyouts. Question becomes when does keeping Napier become more costly than paying the buyout.

Truly the worst targeting call I’ve ever seen. Thoughts Bill(y) King

Been going to Florida games since I was a little kid (1988 my first game). I’ve been covering the sport as a writer for a while now, too. This is as bad as I’ve ever seen Florida look. Predictable offensively. Toothless defensively. No identity. Just miserable.
