Halftime Takeaways: Florida collapses against Georgia in final two minutes

Anthony Richardson is finally Florida’s starter but the Gators trail Georgia at the half in Jacksonville.

No one gave Florida much of a chance to keep things close against Georgia this week, and the Bulldogs are leading the Gators 24-0 at halftime.

It was a much closer game than the score indicated two minutes before the half. Florida trailed by only three points and it seemed as if a missed field goal could make the difference in the long run. Then came the turnover bug that has plagued Florida constantly throughout the season. Anthony Richardson had the ball stripped away from him before throwing two interceptions, all of which led to Georgia touchdowns.

Dan Mullen will have to decide whether or not he’s sticking with Richardson in the second half, or if he’s going with Emory Jones once again after the turnovers. The pressure seemed to play a factor in the final minutes of the half for Richardson, so a switch could help the offense get back on track.
