53 yards. Pretty remarkable defensive effort. North Texas averaged 1.12 yards per play.
 
On one hand, that was the best tackling I've ever seen out of the Gators....on the other hand, North Texas is terrible.
 
We will need them to score points Saturday. Hope they can do it.

If we force Dobbs to have to throw quite a bit we should get some turnovers. Also Tenn kept putting the ball on the ground against Ohio but kept getting lucky and recovering the ball.
 
everyone looks terrible against this defense, and that will continue...

but a nole fan said our defense wasn't as good since Muschamp. We broke a record from 50 years ago too by allowing 7 or fewer in the first 3 games.
