Dan Mullen explains why he didn’t challenge fumble call

Midway through the second quarter the Florida Gators offense was doing it’s best job or trying to tire out Miami’s offense by keeping them on the field.

Feleipe Franks and Lamical Perine botched a handoff that resulted in a turnover. Florida’s defense did its job, forcing a 3-and-out. Two plays later Feleipe Franks took a shotgun snap before pitching the ball to Davis on the near side of the field. The ball hit Davis’ hands but it appeared the running back started to run before he secured the ball and it hit the turf. It was a lateral, so the ball is live.
