At halftime in Raymond James Stadium on Saturday, Florida led USF 35-3 and all seemed right with the Gators’ world, thanks to Emory Jones rebounding from a rocky start against FAU and Anthony Richardson continuing to supply more dynamite than the Acme Corporation ever did to Wile E. Coyote.
By the end of the game, mistakes by Jones had helped USF whittle that lead to a more respectable 42-20 final — and with Richardson providing the primary highlights of the second half, it seems like the Gators are once again in a quarterback quandary.
Jones threw for 151 yards and a touchdown — on a beautiful deep ball down the sideline to Xzavier Henderson — and ran for another 81 yards and a score, but did most of his damage before halftime.
