Now and here's your host, Jason Cowers. 6 00:00:38,039 --> 00:00:42,640 Okay, welcome in Florida Football Insiders Podcast. We are in week eight. 7 00:00:43,439 --> 00:00:47,880 Hard to believe we've already hit week eight of the college football season. 8 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,240 Got about five weeks to go. A lot of teams are having their bye 9 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,880 weeks here either last week or this week. Coming up, a lot of 10 00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:00,280 great action in the state of Florida, and we are going to recay app 11 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,319 the action and give you a little little a little preview moving ahead here the 12 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,200 last four or five weeks of the year, as we have some interesting matchups 13 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,840 coming up within the state of Florida. A lot of conference races are starting 14 00:01:11,799 --> 00:01:14,359 to developed. There's some teams in the in the state that are still in 15 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,200 it, and so forth and so on. So let's get to the state 16 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:25,239 of Florida. Seminoles, Gators, Hurricanes, USF, Bulls, f au 17 00:01:25,599 --> 00:01:30,799 F, I u UCF has some big, big games here as we move 18 00:01:30,879 --> 00:01:34,760 to the back half of the regular season. So no guests this week. 19 00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:38,120 I'm just gonna give you it. We're just gonna recap last week's games, 20 00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:40,760 give you a little preview of this week's games, and give you some news 21 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,319 and notes. This will be a quick listen for everybody this week. We've 22 00:01:44,359 --> 00:01:47,359 got a couple of got a couple of I've got a couple of guests that 23 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,159 I think you will love if I'm on the verge of getting one, in 24 00:01:49,239 --> 00:01:57,359 particular, a former Heisman Trophy winner, a AH stalwart in the state of 25 00:01:57,359 --> 00:02:00,480 Florida. You will love this name, but won't I can't give away the 26 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,200 name yet until I confirm that we've got it, but I think we're gonna 27 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,280 get this this guy here in the next couple of weeks. And he is 28 00:02:07,359 --> 00:02:10,319 a legend in the state of Florida, former Heisman Trophy winner as well. 29 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,960 So just to give you a little nugget there. As we move towards the 30 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,319 end of October to Halloween into November, so I should know something here in 31 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:24,639 the next few days about that opportunity to present to you a Heisman Trophy winner 32 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:29,680 here on the podcast. So all right, Florida State sevenoles moved to six 33 00:02:29,759 --> 00:02:32,919 and oh they roll Syracuse forty one to three. Uh, moved again. 34 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:38,599 They Keon Coleman is kind of the highlight player here. Nine catches for one 35 00:02:38,759 --> 00:02:45,319 for TD. It's clear to see that Keon Coleman and Jordan Travis just have 36 00:02:45,319 --> 00:02:49,039 have developed a chemistry together. One thing about this game, again, this 37 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,800 game was never in doubt. One thing I didn't like though, I didn't 38 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:57,599 like Mike Norvell's handling of going forward so much on fourth down near the goal 39 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,319 one and the game was still early in the game. He was up, 40 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,479 I think fourteen to nothing. He had fourth and goal from like the four 41 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,840 or five yard line. I didn't like that he went for it. Should 42 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,360 have kicked a field goal. I do not like these coaches that are just 43 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:14,960 so gung ho about going forward every single time. Here. To me, 44 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,599 that's an opportunity there, you have to kick the field goal. And again, 45 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,520 not that Syracuse was any threat to win the game, but what that 46 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,919 it's gonna do is it's going to dictate how you make decisions later on down 47 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,520 the road in these games that are closer. When you played North Carolina, 48 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,319 when you played Florida, when you play Miami, I did not like too 49 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,879 risky in my view, too much risk, and they didn't convert in the 50 00:03:35,879 --> 00:03:38,960 game against Syracuse. I don't like that these coaches are going so gung ho. 51 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:45,639 You saw nationally last week another to me, another analytics mistake. Coaching 52 00:03:45,639 --> 00:03:50,199 areas galore. In the Oregon Washington game, you saw Dan Lanning didn't kick 53 00:03:50,199 --> 00:03:52,680 the field goal at the end of the first half on fourth and goal from 54 00:03:52,719 --> 00:03:54,800 like the four yard line. That field goal came back to roost at the 55 00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:58,479 end, went for it late in the game fourth and two on his own 56 00:03:58,759 --> 00:04:00,960 forty three or forty four yard line, didn't make it, led to the 57 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,039 game winning touchdown for Washington. These coaches that are just too aggressive with these 58 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:11,520 fourth down calls, They have got to have some context of the game. 59 00:04:12,199 --> 00:04:15,079 What your eyes are seeing dictates what you should do in some of these moments, 60 00:04:15,079 --> 00:04:18,920 and not taking the points in a lot of these situations is the wrong 61 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:25,920 decision. So you know whether it's again Mario Christobal's coaching error, Dan Lanning's 62 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:31,079 coaching error. These coaches are getting burned left and right by these decisions on 63 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:38,319 fourth down and game management is so important for these big coach especially when you 64 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,399 have a championship level team like Florida State. Does you know you've got to 65 00:04:42,399 --> 00:04:46,160 get in these coaches ears there. I mean, these coaches have got to 66 00:04:46,199 --> 00:04:49,360 be willing to tell the head coach get the points. Take more way, 67 00:04:49,399 --> 00:04:53,680 more times than not. When you take the points, that's the way to 68 00:04:53,759 --> 00:04:58,160 go. You can, you know, take the freaking points. Coaches take 69 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,040 the points. But Florida FSU is going to be playing Duke this Saturday night. 70 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,160 It's gonna be the ESPN game. Herb Street and Fallat will be in 71 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:10,040 Tallahassee. We don't know what the status of Riley Leonard is. Duke with 72 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,959 another nice win last week against NC State, I believe Duke's only got one 73 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,279 loss, so we'll see what the status of Riley Leonard is. Again, 74 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,120 very good defense with Mike Elco I could see this game. I could see 75 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,120 this being a game for a half or so. Florida State should be able 76 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,800 to pull away in the second half. But that Duke defense is legit and 77 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,120 Mike Elko is a really good coach at Duke. Johnny Wilson, the receiver, 78 00:05:33,199 --> 00:05:36,920 did not play against Syracuse. Indications are that he will be back for 79 00:05:36,959 --> 00:05:41,639 this game against Duke, but we will see again what the status of Riley 80 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,560 Leonard is will be a big determinate in the outcome of this game. But 81 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,000 again, Florida State, you've got a couple more You got a couple more 82 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,560 games you got to navigate, you got the Duke game, you got Miami, 83 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,879 and you got Florida before you get to that ACC title game. So 84 00:05:53,959 --> 00:05:57,600 you're not out of the woods yet, but you're in a great situation to 85 00:05:57,639 --> 00:06:00,759 be able to get to the a SEC title game undefeated and looking more and 86 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,040 more like than it's gonna be North Carolina. Hear that you're gonna see in 87 00:06:04,079 --> 00:06:09,000 the title game. With North Carolina beating Miami last week, putting Miami at 88 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:13,560 two conference losses, you got Clemson with two losses, so unless North Carolina 89 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,160 implodes, you're probably gonna see Drake May and North Carolina in the ACC title 90 00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:23,720 game in the first weekend in December. So all right on to Gainesville. 91 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:29,079 The Gators win a shootout in Colombia forty one to thirty nine. Give Florida 92 00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:31,199 credit. Did not think they were gonna win the game, Florida goes on 93 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,519 the road to Colombia. That's a good win for Billy Napier to go to 94 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:39,240 five and two, three and one in the SEC. Ricky piersall with a 95 00:06:39,319 --> 00:06:43,560 huge game ten catches, one sixty six, Graham Merch thirty of forty eight 96 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,040 for four to twenty three and three touchdowns. He played really well. He's 97 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:50,120 playing better and better. Tray Smack the field goal kicker, five field goals, 98 00:06:50,199 --> 00:06:55,000 four of them from forty four yards and longer. He was the SEC 99 00:06:55,439 --> 00:06:59,160 Special Teams Player of the Week. I think Merch won the UH. I 100 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,360 think Merch won the Offensive Player of the Week as well. So that's a 101 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,000 great that's a really good win for Billy Napier. They are off this week, 102 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,959 got Georgia next week in Jacksonville in a game that all of a sudden 103 00:07:09,959 --> 00:07:13,800 gets a little more interesting with no brock Bowers, who's out injured with the 104 00:07:13,839 --> 00:07:17,279 ankle injury ankle surgery. I don't think you're gonna see brock Bowers again this 105 00:07:17,399 --> 00:07:21,079 year because of his draft status. He is a true junior, gonna be 106 00:07:21,079 --> 00:07:26,720 eligible unless he's one thousand percent healthy, and he still might not play I 107 00:07:26,759 --> 00:07:30,319 gotta feel in your you've seen the last of brock Bowers at Georgia here this 108 00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:34,439 during the two twenty twenty three season. But we will see how that goes. 109 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,319 We'll see what George is at at the end to termine what the status 110 00:07:39,399 --> 00:07:41,879 or the decision at Bowers. That's me. But again, a good win 111 00:07:41,959 --> 00:07:45,839 for Florida again, if you're Florida, if you can get to that Georgia 112 00:07:45,879 --> 00:07:48,319 game, which they got two weeks to get ready, if Merch can keep 113 00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:51,680 playing like he's playing, I think with no brock Bowers, you got a 114 00:07:51,759 --> 00:07:57,480 chance to be in the game here. And I think there's an opportunity here 115 00:07:57,519 --> 00:08:01,399 if you're Florida to potentially and we'll get more depth into this game next week. 116 00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:03,879 I'll have a Florida guest on for you're breaking down the game. But 117 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,560 again, good win for Billy Napier as a when they needed to have on 118 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,120 the road. You get to five and two, three and one in the 119 00:08:11,199 --> 00:08:13,040 league, you're right in the mix. If you somehow can beat Georgia, 120 00:08:13,519 --> 00:08:16,519 you've already beaten Tennessee, you will be in the leade. You will be 121 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,360 in the driver's seat in the in the SEC East. But Uh, good 122 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,720 win for the Gators. Good job by Graham Mertz playing a little bit, 123 00:08:24,839 --> 00:08:28,120 playing better and better, and uh good good sign for Billy Napier. All 124 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,879 right, Miami goes down to North Carolina. They lose forty one to thirty 125 00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:39,720 one in Chapel Hill. The Canes fall to four and two Vandyke with three 126 00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:43,120 hundred and ninety one yards, four touchdowns, two picks, Jacobe George six 127 00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:46,159 catches, one to twenty five in a touchdown. Just just not enough. 128 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:52,000 Defense man the Drake May tes Walker, that the receiver who'd been out for 129 00:08:52,039 --> 00:08:56,559 North Carolina with eligibility issues, came back a week ago and lit up the 130 00:08:56,639 --> 00:09:00,720 Hurricanes on Saturday night in Chapel Hill. You saw the the NFL quality that 131 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,360 tes Walker is a wide receiver. What a difference team makes in that offense. 132 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,399 They could not stop tes Walker. The Miami offense just not enough, 133 00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:11,000 too little, too late. They got way behind in the third quarter. 134 00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:16,039 The game was competitive at the half, but they got way behind in the 135 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,879 third quarter and and just could not. And that just goes to show you 136 00:09:20,159 --> 00:09:26,360 the critical nature of that loss. The week before that Georgia Tech disaster is 137 00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:30,679 why that was such a such a glary because you figured they were gonna lose 138 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:35,440 either the Clemson or North Carolina. They could probably absorb one loss still with 139 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,639 Florida State still on the schedule, but you can't. Now you're two losses 140 00:09:37,639 --> 00:09:41,279 in the conference and you're all but eliminated from the conference title game. So 141 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,960 bad loss for again, back to the Georgia Tech game, just a disastrous 142 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,600 We don't know, who knows what the mindset of that team was come the 143 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,120 second half of that Carolina game. Once they got behind, obviously it was 144 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,919 oh my gosh, here we go again. But again the Hurricanes go down 145 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,399 loose two in a row in North Carolina. They're gonna host Clemson in Miami. 146 00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:05,200 That game could have been a monster game for Miami, but now it's 147 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,320 just a game. It doesn't have nearly the height that it would have had 148 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:15,159 had had Miami either either had one loss or potentially been undefeated. But you 149 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,720 do have a two loss Clemson team coming to Miami. I think Clemson's like 150 00:10:18,759 --> 00:10:22,559 a three and a half point favorite in Miami, which is interesting. But 151 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,799 we will see. We'll see what the medal of this Miami team is. 152 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,240 Coming off two straight losses and having to go play another home game in front 153 00:10:28,279 --> 00:10:33,039 of that crowd after what happened at the Georgia Tech game. So big, 154 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:41,519 big job for Mario Christabal to get this Hurricane team back on track and mentally 155 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,320 back on track following the two losses in a row. So we'll see what 156 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:52,039 Miami does hosting Clemson on Saturday. I think it's a night game in Miami, 157 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,200 so we will see how that, how that goes for the Hurricanes and 158 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,879 the Clemson Tigers. All Right, the in state game last week that happened, 159 00:10:58,879 --> 00:11:05,600 I was in the building. USF FAU FAU with a very impressive performance 160 00:11:05,639 --> 00:11:09,559 fifty six to fourteen win over the Bulls. Lejohnte Wester was the star here. 161 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,360 He and Daniel Richardson the quarterback. Richardson was thirty one to thirty eight, 162 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:18,919 three eighty two and three touchdowns. Lejohonte Western ten catches one twenty three 163 00:11:18,919 --> 00:11:22,679 in a touchdown and he had electrifying punt return for a touchdown as well. 164 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:28,879 Great job by Tom Herman and the FAU. The Owls just thoroughly beat USF 165 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:35,080 down. The game was non competitive after after you know, late second quarter, 166 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,039 it was it was a game. Second half the game was non competitive. 167 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,759 FAU moves to three and three, two and zero in the conference. 168 00:11:43,799 --> 00:11:48,879 They'll host UTSA, be a very interesting game in uh down in Boca. 169 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,960 This is an opportunity here for Tom Herman, who who we know is a 170 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,840 giant killer from his days back at Houston. So this is a great opportunity 171 00:11:56,039 --> 00:11:58,759 for the for the Owls to make a statement in this in this conference. 172 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:05,679 Again, quality win in state against USF, and again if you're USF, 173 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,519 you fall to three and four, two and two in the league. They 174 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,559 go to yukon this Saturday. If you're USF, I mean, that's just 175 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,759 a demoralizing loss. I don't know what you know. One thing I don't 176 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,759 watching that game. I don't understand if you're USF, why you keep playing 177 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:26,799 so fast when your defense is not very good. They've been exposed the last 178 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,399 couple of weeks, give it up fifty six points two weeks in a row. 179 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,080 I don't understand why they keep playing so fast to get that defense back 180 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:39,720 on the field when the offense has not been great the last several weeks. 181 00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:43,240 Also from a game manager perspective, Alex Goldish kicks a forty nine yard field 182 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,879 goal when it's like fourth and two. I didn't understand why he did that 183 00:12:46,919 --> 00:12:50,240 from about the thirty yard line, thirty one yard line, and you know, 184 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,360 he's he's always been a guy that's been pretty aggressive on fourth down. 185 00:12:54,399 --> 00:12:56,240 To me, that's a time to go forward on fourth down. You were 186 00:12:56,279 --> 00:13:01,279 down in the game, I think it was twenty one to seven. You 187 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,039 didn't. You don't have a strong legged field goal kicker. They can kick 188 00:13:05,039 --> 00:13:07,159 the fifty yard field goals. The kid they got now is good from you 189 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,200 know, forty two and in, but he's but he's not a strong, 190 00:13:11,279 --> 00:13:15,200 big legged guy that's gonna make fifty yarders. I didn't understand why you kicked 191 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,000 the field goal there and didn't go for it. But the defense that continues 192 00:13:18,039 --> 00:13:22,840 to have problems. Uh, The offensive line plays has been very up and 193 00:13:22,879 --> 00:13:26,519 down, very spotty. That's a part again, you play a Yukon team 194 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,000 that's not very good. We will see how that on the road. We'll 195 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,200 see if they can recover again. A couple of weeks ago we were talking 196 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,600 about they had an opportunity to be Bowl eligible in October, the month of 197 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,200 October, but they've lost two bad two games in a row. After they've 198 00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:45,120 lost the games but they've been thoroughly outmanned and beaten badly in both games by 199 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,559 UA B and f AU. You gotta win if you're a USF. If 200 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,960 you want to have any semblance of a good year, you gotta beat Yukon. 201 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,759 Interesting to see what the weather will be like up there. Could be 202 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,919 cold, could be rainy and wet, but again you're playing a Yukon team 203 00:13:58,919 --> 00:14:03,559 that's not very good. Be very interesting to see how the USF Bulls recover 204 00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:07,600 from the two beatings in a row going back on the road to play u 205 00:14:07,639 --> 00:14:11,039 COD. But again give FAU a lot of credit. Wester is a really 206 00:14:11,039 --> 00:14:15,960 good little slot receiver. He probably will play in the NFL at some level, 207 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,840 whether it's as a kick returner or a third or fourth receiver. And 208 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:24,279 Daniel Richardson played pretty good ats quarterback. It's a very interesting game with UTSA. 209 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:30,480 The Roadrunners come to Boca this Saturday, and we'll see what they do 210 00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:35,519 there. UCF comes off of bye they go to Oklahoma again. John race 211 00:14:35,559 --> 00:14:39,480 Plumbley's backstarting as the starting quarterback. He's fully healthy following the bye week. 212 00:14:39,759 --> 00:14:43,879 Again, another tough, tough assignment on the road in Norman. You got 213 00:14:43,879 --> 00:14:48,200 the undefeated Sooners. You got Dylan Gabriel with the revenge game against UCF, 214 00:14:48,759 --> 00:14:54,679 I expect a struggle for the Knights in Norman. I would expect them to 215 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,879 lose by a couple of touchdowns minimum maybe you know, I think the spread 216 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:01,039 is like eighteen or nineteen, But that will be a very tough road to 217 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,120 hoe for Gus Malzon and the UCF Knights. Again, plumb Lee back in 218 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,679 the in the saddle. You got to slow this game down, You got 219 00:15:09,679 --> 00:15:11,799 to minimize the possessions in the running game. With plumb Lee in the running 220 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,879 game. We'll see if they're able to do that, because again Oklahoma's gonna 221 00:15:15,879 --> 00:15:18,559 be up tempo, trying to score, score, score, try to get 222 00:15:18,559 --> 00:15:24,000 a lead here again with Gabriel will be duly motivated here to put a big 223 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,639 number up on UCF, and he will have the green light to do that. 224 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:33,200 So I don't like UCF's chances for this game to be close, But 225 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,519 we shall see as they go to Norman. Following their by and last but 226 00:15:37,559 --> 00:15:41,320 not least, we're gonna talk FIU. FIU lost twenty seven to fourteen at 227 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,440 home to UTEP. They follow to three and four oh and four in the 228 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:48,279 conference. They have another Wednesday night game thing as their third one in a 229 00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:54,039 row. They're playing at sam Houston State Wednesday night this week, so they 230 00:15:54,039 --> 00:15:58,559 are on the Wednesday night circuit. Good, good opportunity to get some TV 231 00:15:58,679 --> 00:16:03,679 exposure. But again f IU goes down twenty seven to fourteen to UTEP. 232 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,840 We will see a shout out to my guy, aj Ricketts, play by 233 00:16:07,879 --> 00:16:14,080 play guy at FIU, and we will see how the Panthers respond following a 234 00:16:14,279 --> 00:16:17,200 their zero to four in the conference, and we will see if they can 235 00:16:17,519 --> 00:16:21,200 recover on the road. That's a tough road trip from from Miami out to 236 00:16:21,279 --> 00:16:26,759 sam Houston, so we will see how how that goes for the Panthers at 237 00:16:26,759 --> 00:16:30,600 three and four. So there's your recap of the state of Florida. Again. 238 00:16:30,639 --> 00:16:34,120 Remember, if you're looking for great information again follow up where we're The 239 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:41,279 Florida Football Insiders podcast is part of the College Gridiron Coast to Coast podcast feed. 240 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,960 If you're looking for information about USC the Big Ten, the ACC, 241 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,519 the Big Twelve.
