Week 2 of the 2020 college football season is in the books, and a new AP Poll has been released, and ESPN’s college football team gave their reactions for each team listed in the top 25.
This week’s poll is the first AP Poll to only feature teams playing football this fall, as the previous poll included teams from the Big 10 and Pac-12, which have postponed their fall seasons.
The Gators come in at No. 5 on this week’s poll, the third-highest ranked SEC team behind No. 2 Alabama and No. 4 Georgia. Here’s what ESPN’s Andrea Adelson said about Florida.
The Gators lost their top four receivers from a year ago, and though there are known players with the opportunity to step up such as Trevon Grimes and Kadarius Toney, watch for some new faces to potentially emerge. So far through camp, true freshman Xzavier Henderson (the brother of former Gators cornerback CJ Henderson) and Jaquavion Fraziars have earned praise. Then there is Penn State transfer Justin Shorter, now eligible to play this season. — Adelson
