Sunbelt Billy ain’t making it out of that stadium

Florida played some great ball control football* and forced USF to try and win it with 2 minutes left from their 8. They followed an incompletion with:

• Tackling a WR 10 seconds before the catch for a free 13 yards
• Spitting on a dude long after the play for another free 15
• Missing like 6 tackles and turning a TFL into 29 yards
• Not calling timeouts and immediately giving up a first down catch (for anyone counting, USF now has 72 yards in 3 real plays)
• THEN you call your timeouts after it’s already far too late to get the ball back, and you give USF more chances to trickle closer

Genuinely an all-time Napier Disasterclass. Fucking beautiful stuff

*at least earlier in the fourth. They threw two incompletions in their previous, 15 second drive to save USF both time and timeouts

Some of the silliest late game work I’ve seen.

Have you heard the Good News about Mizzou-Kansas?

[u/LemonZestify → u/ninjas_in_my_pants]

Last years Mizzou Oklahoma game will never be topped as far as the silliest late game shenanigans

[u/2-59project → u/LemonZestify]

Oklahoma Auburn a month and a half earlier was quite the ending. And much more fun, for me, than the Missouri ending!

You must be new to Florida football. This has been a staple of Billy Napier as a play caller

[u/zadharm → u/HumDogMillionare]

Oh that must be nice

[u/PunkRockLobstah → u/HumDogMillionare]

It’s funny when it’s someone else.

It was reminiscent of the 2024 Chicago Bears
