Halftime Review Cheer up Gator fans. It could be worse. The only bright spot in the Gators 20-0 deficit to Mizzou is that the Florida D stepped up twice in the second quarter to hold the Tigers to field goals on goal-to-go situations.

Both quarterbacks have been bad, with each coughing up a fumble. Missouri’s scores are the result of Gator turnovers and a great kickoff return to start the game. Driskel was hurt in the waning minutes of the first half and went straight to the locker room. At the half, head coach Will Muschamp told radio coverage that the defense was playing well, that the offense is responsible for the team’s deficit.

Missouri has 99 yards offense to the Gator’s 66, split evenly between passing and rushing. The Tigers own time-of-possession with 17:22, and have success running on the Gators with 79 yards. Tiger quarterback Maty Mauk has only 20 yards passing, but 3 Gator turnovers have set him with a short field, taking pressure off of him to pass.

The Gators are only “three snaps away” from victory and if Muschamp and offensive coordinator can make changes on offense, who knows? That will mean seeing something from freshman quarterback Treon Harris, which we haven’t yet.
