It’s sad to see how far the Gators have fallen compared to Alabama and LSU. They looked every bit as bad yesterday as they did last year.
Not only that, there is clear division on the team because of the way Muschamp mishandled the QB situation.
This is why you don’t hire head coaches with no previous head coaching experience at this level.
