I think he said it was a first half high for Mertz, not for Florida.
We've had multiple guys throw for 300+ in the first half, and Mertz had somewhere around 235 at the half on Saturday if memory serves.

Yeah, I also thought he did say it. But like la Paz stated, it was obviously in error and he must have meant for Mertz.

Steve Spurrier thinks Florida ‘has a chance’ to beat No. 1 Georgia
Despite the betting line and recent history, Steve Spurrier believes the Florida Gators have a shot to upset No. 1 Georgia.

Sure we have a chance. A lot needs to improve, but if we play well we can upset them.Steve Spurrier thinks Florida ‘has a chance’ to beat No. 1 Georgia

We have an advantage at QB. We’ve got multiple threats on offense which will test them. If we have time.
Biggest concerns are on the LOS - both sides. Beck hasn’t yet been touched and we don’t get much pressure on anyone. Can we adjust some people or schemes to get to him? Can we get better push from our enormous DL to help our LB and DEs have cleaner gap control? Can our safeties provide better support on deep balls?
Can our offense keep their DL thinking and misdirected, opening holes for the running game? Can we protect Mertz better?

Thinking back to 1980 when Herschel burst on the scene as a freshman. The prior year UGA fell a win short of being SEC champs and the entire OL returned. Those too young to remember it have never seen anyone like Herschel. He was the size of a DE and the fastest guy on the field. Derrick Henry is the closest current RB, but Herschel was a cut above him.
UF was coming off 0-10-1 but was proving much better. Mike Shanahan surprised UGA by going 5-wide, led by Collinsworth & Tyrone Young and freshman QB Wayne Peace. It worked. Had Vito McKeever’s(?) knee not buckled when he planted to cover Lindsay Scott, we would have won.

This is the area where we are sooooooo close, but not quite there. We have been burned FAR less this year on deep balls where there is a LOT of separation between our DBs and the receiver... there have been a lot of phenomenal catches by the receiver with our DB practically draped on them, just can't separate the ball from the receiver....I hope that starts to shift for second half of the season as experience grows, but maybe not until next year. In previous years, there was just a wide open receiver behind everyone and no/bad tackling.

Our oline vs their dline is our biggest weakness in this game. Poor Mertz is liable to be running for his life like he has all season.

Basically what we did vs. Ut and have done since. Misdirection, get them moving one way then go the other - reverses, jet sweeps, pitches, etc. If those work, they cause them to think and that split second is all Etienne or Wilson need.
Also, showing different alignments and personnel groupings can help. An off week gives time for those wrinkles.

Seriously. I remember the days of LDR cooking teams and by halftime we’re putting in our backup

It's been quite a while no doubt, but we did know how to throw the ball, many many years ago

I would like to revert back to the days when we had an o-lone that could block. We haven't recruited well or coached well in that area since Meyer left!It's been quite a while no doubt, but we did know how to throw the ball, many many years ago
