You really don’t watch football do you? Or at least you don’t know what you’re looking at near as I can tell. Florida did not lose that game because of defense yesterday, I promise.
You got that right zen....
UF/Mullen's Offense:
3. Rushing Offense (246 for 1,642 Yds, 6.7 YPC, 15 TD's, 273.7 Yds/Gm.
NR Passing Offense not even in the Top 50
=====
Starting Jr CB Jaydon Hill - out for the season with ACL.
SS/Star rsFr Kamar Wilcoxson - out for the season, knee.
Jr CB Kaiir Elam - out vs UA, plus the last 3 games, knee sprain.
Grad-Sr CB Elijah Blades -
dismissed from the team prior to VU by Mullen?
Picking up the DB slack so far:
Fr CB Jason Marshall Jr - 11 Tkls, 1 TFL, 1 PBU
rsFr CB/Star Avery Helm - 11 Tkls, 3 PBU's.
Along with some reps from xfer Jr CB Jadarrius Perkins, and several younger guys.
Adding to that hit list that Grantham was already dealing with:
rsSr MLB Ventrell Miller injured out for the season in 2nd game vs USF.
rsJr SDE/OLB Andrew Chatfield leaves thru the portal.
Losing your rsSr starting MLB, and then both of your starting Jr CB's, would usually kill a defense playing in the SEC. Grantham and staff have done an admirable job of staying in it so far imo.
UF/Grantham is currently at #28 in Total-D in the Nation.
And at #4 in the SEC behind UGly, UA, & UK.
