It seemed like there was a small sliver of hope still alive in the Florida football program after its home upset win over then ninth-ranked Texas.
The hope was fueled by a more efficient DJ Lagway, the won't "back down" atmosphere of the Swamp, and the debut of freshman sensation Dallas Wilson.
It wasn't much, but it was enough of a spark to let Florida fans entertain the idea of letting Napier have a few more weeks at the helm in "wait and see" mode.
But all that was lost Saturday night in yet another frustrating loss, this time to Texas A&M.
