Two plays pretty much assured that this was going to be a Sunday afternoon blowout of Eastern Washington, one day later than the original schedule due to Hurricane Ian. On Florida’s first play from scrimmage Anthony Richardson dropped back to the UF 18, flicked his wrist and 60 yards later Justin Shorter ran under that laser beam on his way to a 75-yard touchdown.

Week two of Todd Golden’s first Florida preseason basketball practices began Monday afternoon at the O-Dome with Alex Fudge (6-9, 200, SO) registering a spectacular play of the day. Taking a pass from the wing, Fudge drove the baseline with three long strides, emerged on the back side of the rim and then delivered a violent, thunderous windmill dunk that had teammates celebrating.

Sunday’s are made for azure skies, picnics and tossing the ball around with the kids. For the Florida Gators, Sunday at The Swamp became just that, as the UF offense put on a mesmerizing display in a first-half 35-3 onslaught of the Eastern Washington Eagles.

Four practices are in the books for Todd Golden and the Florida Gators. Friday was spent working on defense and installing some of the offense. Saturday was a chance to put everything learned during the week to work with a controlled scrimmage.
