Florida’s 8 biggest plays of 2019 according to Expected Points Added

The second year of the Dan Mullen era was largely a success. Florida won double-digit games in the regular season for the first time since 2015, defeated its two in-state rivals in the same season for the first time since 2008 and won the Orange Bowl.

The 2019 season also brought plenty of big, memorable plays. How do we figure out which ones were the most significant?

To do this, I used cfbscrapR to find the Expected Points Added (EPA) for every play for the Gators in 2019. EPA essentially attaches a value before and after every play according to its game situation.
