The Florida Gators fell to the Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday, 42-20.
Although the final score may seem one-sided, it doesn’t tell the full story of the game. The first half of the game was all Georgia. The Bulldogs jumped out to a three-score lead while facing little resistance, leading to plenty of the Florida faithful leaving the stadium at half time.
Anyone who chose to leave regretted it almost instantly. Florida started the second half firing on all cylinders. The Gators produced a pair of turnovers and put up 17 unanswered points to bring things down to a one-score game.
Quarterback [autotag]Anthony Richardson[/autotag] looked a lot more like himself in the second half, and the running game even picked up a bit against one of the top front sevens in the country.
It’s not the outcome any Gators fan wants to see, but this chapter of the Florida-Georgia rivalry could have wound up being far worse than it was. UF will be playing for a win next year, but there were plenty of positives (and negatives) to take away from this one.
