Halftime Hash Marks: Breaking down Florida’s first half vs. Missouri

Here is a quick look at how we arrived at the halftime score in the Swamp.

The first half of Florida football’s homecoming game against the Missouri Tigers is in the book with the Gators tied with visiting Mizzou. The opening 30 minutes saw the home team take an early 10-0 lead before completely relinquishing it in the second quarter, resulting in a 10-10 score.

Overall, the offense was unimpressive, setting up the special teams unit for a 1-for-2 tally in field goal attempts. Meanwhile, the defense did what it usually does — playing to the level of its competition while also showing some lapses in judgment. Mizzou was able to keep pace with the home team thanks to some persistent play on both sides of the ball as well as a timely turnover near the end of the half.
