- DiscussionBear Bryant and Shug Jordan must have turned over in their graves after that wild first half of the Iron Bowl. the bang-bang scores made me dizzy. Defense was nowhere to be found. I had just seen Auburn take the lead in the first half on a Bo Nix TD pass when I turned to my friend in the press box and turned back to the TV when he said, “Did Alabama just score again?” indeed, and a few ticks later Auburn kicked a field goal to cut the lead to 31-27. And I cleared my head like I had just seen a video game — or maybe played a game of pinball.

Florida elects to go for it on 4th and 1 from the FSU 20 on first drive...QB keeper and Trask picks up the first down. This place is going nuts right now.
TOUCHDOWN Freddie Swain gets the first score on Senior Night, takes a screen & cuts through the defense for the 19-yard score. UF 7 FSU 0
Gators began with delay of game, a short gain pass and an incompletion. They then went 75 yards with 4 first downs, ending with a 19-yard touchdown. Still not sure why FSU wanted to give this offense the ball first.
Jordan Travis at QB, pushes in from the 1-yard line to put Noles on the board. Drive really got going with a 45-yard pass from Blackmon to Terry. UF 7 FSU 7
4th and 1 from FSU 21…Gators break huddle at 10 seconds…handoff to Pierce, no gain, FSU starts celebrating, but flag for offsides on FSU gives Florida fresh set of downs
At the end of the 1st quarter: UF 7 FSU 7 Gators facing a 2nd and 5 on the FSU 11-yard line.
After 1Q: -Florida offense moving the ball well enough. Keeping it crisp. Couple of flags hurt them but everything in here is amped to the inth degree tonight so expect that kinda. -Defense got bit by FSU's first drive with scripted plays, also expected. Those scripted plays will run out.
On first attempt, a Pierce rush is deemed just short.
Next play, Pierce makes it an easy punch in from the 1-yard line.
McPherson misses the PAT.
Smoke from the celebration fireworks is hanging over the field. Not sure if those things are related.
UF 13
FSU 7
He couldn’t see the goal posts lol
Hey Tommy Townsend gets to punt on Senior Day! Try to convince Mullen didn't purposely have offense go 3-and-out so Tommy could punt. You won't.
Hey Kassidy I finally joined so any secret new in recruiting!
