I found my home at The Alligator

There’s a lot about that office on SW 13th Street I’m going to miss.

No, the Gators aren’t this year’s LSU

A wildly inconsistent defense and less productive run game keeps UF from reaching 2019 LSU's level of production.

What’s the deal with Emory Jones?

Gators backup QB Emory Jones has mostly been used by UF to run the ball. When he's brought in, he's been successful.

Gators prove offense is more than just “Kyle to Kyle”

“Kyle to Kyle” has been the talk of the town in Gainesville ever since tight end Kyle Pitts’ breakout year in 2019 with Kyle Trask under center. 

Gators offense hasn’t been as electric in the second half

Wide receiver Trevon Grimes brushed past Georgia cornerback Tyson Campbell’s press coverage and streaked toward the end zone. Quarterback Kyle Trask identified that Grimes had a step on his man and lobbed a pass toward the end zone. 

Gators’ lethal offense takes down Bulldogs in Jacksonville

Down 14-0 in the first quarter, the Mullen-era narrative of a Gators loss in Jacksonville thrived.

SEC dishes out punishments for kerfuffle against Missouri

Defensive lineman Zachary Carter and linebacker Antwuan Powell will miss the first half of Florida’s upcoming game against Georgia for fighting during Saturday’s 41-17 win over Missouri. Gators coach Dan Mullen was fined $25,000 and given a reprimand for violating the SEC’s bylaws regarding sportsmanship. 

From gadget player to human joystick: Kadarius Toney is now the complete package

Florida’s offense looked rusty and lifeless for most of the first half against Missouri on Saturday. It looked like a team that had barely practiced, let alone played a game, in three weeks. 

Questions remain as Gators return to practice

The Gators have returned to practice following their team-wide COVID-19 outbreak that included 31 positive cases in the month of October. Florida has five days to prepare for Missouri after athletic activities have been at a standstill since Oct. 13. 

The Gators offense is elite, but you already knew that

The Gators have been must-watch television in 2020, for better or worse. The shootouts that used to be contained to just the Big 12 have migrated to the SEC and made their way to Gainesville. Florida has scored at least 30 points in six of its last seven games dating back to last season.  

Emory Jones has been an efficient runner in limited carries
