Game 1 Postgame Reactions: It’s great to be a Florida Gator!

The duet of Kyles made sweet music for UF on the afternoon, connecting eight times out of nine attempts for 170 yards and four touchdowns.

The Florida Gators rose from the field at Oxford, Miss., on Saturday with the victory against the Ole Miss Rebels in an offensive affair that saw both teams put up huge numbers — including a school record for yards in a Southeastern Conference matchup for Florida, who put up 642 total yards with 446 coming through the air and 196 on the ground.

The game ended with a score of 51-35, though Ole Miss almost made it closer in the final minute with a touchdown followed by an onside kick and a drive down to UF’s 10-yard line that died as the clock expired. The duet of Kyles made sweet music for the Gators on the afternoon, as Kyle Trask connected with Kyle Pitts eight times out of nine attempts for 170 yards and four touchdowns.

Here is a look at some of the responses from around the Gator Nation found on social media Saturday afternoon after the end of the game, including the school’s official account as well as UF great and NFL Hall of Fame running back Emmitt Smith.
