Definitely not the best game I've ever seen the Gators play.
I can't explain why the snaps from center were so bad, but as far as the
OL performance overall, I saw a lot of names I didn't expect to see.
For example, I saw a lot of Halapio. I also saw Harrison and
Silberman. Maybe some of the starters got injured, and that's why there
was no push from the OL. I know Wilson was injured, but they didn't
mention the extent.
I don't care what the coaches say, Rainey is no Harvin. That's not a
knock on Rainey; Harvin is simply the best football player I've ever
seen. Rainey got a number of touches, but didn't make a significant
play that I can remember.
Drayton = fumbles, in my book. As soon as he left, the fumbles went
away. As soon as he returns, the fumbles come back. He may be a good
recruiter, but he leaves a lot to be desired as a running backs coach.
I saw Carl Moore take a big hit to his back. Hopefully, he didn't get
injured again.
Deonte Thompson looked like he dropped that TD pass early, but it was
clearly interference that wasn't called. From what I saw, he caught
everything else today.
I like what Omarius Hines brings to the table. He made several good plays.
All that being said, I'm sure this team will get better. Everyone wrote
off Oregon last year after their first game, but they got better over
the course of the season. I think this team will as well.
