Florida vs. UT-Martin, Game Thread: Gators seek to cruise while honoring “Mr. Two Bits”

Last week, the Tennessee-Martin Skyhawks spotted Northwestern State a 20-14 halftime lead and allowed four drives of 62 yards to the Demons before storming back with 28 unanswered points for a 42-20 win in their season opener.

I know this because I half-watched this condensed version of that game that the inestimably valuable @lib_gator threw up on YouTube this week. I also know that Northwestern State outgained UT-Martin and that the Skyhawks scored on one of the luckiest punt returns I’ve ever seen, a pick return, and two runs by 5’8” waterbug Peyton Logan in the second half, so it wasn’t as if they completely controlled the game after halftime, instead just getting their dynamite to blow up.
