00:00I mean, I felt like I was watching, you know, my survivor pool in the NFL disappear in week

00:04one as the Gators lost to USF 18 to 16, second straight year the Gators have lost early in the

00:12season to sort of end any chance to win a national championship unless that they were to win every

00:17game the rest of the year and then get to the college football playoff. Look, I mean, it's the

00:21same stuff again with Billy Napier and some weird, you know, play calling at the end of the game to

00:26say the least. I mean, is there anything that you could give me positivity here? Because I don't,

00:31I mean, I look as a Gator fan, as everyone knows myself, this was about crushing the blows you're

00:36going to get paying a team a half a million dollars to lose at home. Maybe don't look at the upcoming

00:40schedule then, you know, with all the ranked teams that are there at three straight games against top

00:4610 opponents. I think the penalties were killer. Obviously on the last drive, having 11 penalties

00:50for 103 yards, some questionable play calling when you're trying to put the game away. You know,

01:11a lot of chatter about names ranging from, can they take a run at Dan Lanning? Can they go get

01:17Elaine Kiffin? Does even Brett Bielema will be turning up as a name? I mean, there are going to be a lot

01:23of suggestions to replace him. And I think it's going to be very hard to control the levels of

01:29toxicity in Florida over the next couple of weeks against this very tough schedule.
