Florida’s 44-pound Desmond Watson for the first down

The biggest play in the college football postseason occurred in the closing minutes of Florida’s 33-0 win over Tulane in Friday’s Gasparilla Bowl.

Up 26-0, coach Billy Napier sent in a defensive lineman. And not just any one. Desmond Watson, a senior, is 6-foot-5 and 449 pounds.

He took the handoff and moved forward for a first down that thrilled Gator Nation.
