QB controversy reemerges in Gators’ loss to LSU

After a month-long hiatus, the Gators’ quarterback controversy is back following UF’s 49-42 loss to LSU on Saturday.

Starter Emory Jones played most of the snaps in the first half and the opening drive of the second half. He finished the game 12-for-19 for 161 yards and a touchdown. He threw two interceptions, including one that was returned for a touchdown to eventually provide LSU with the winning points.

Backup Anthony Richardson entered for two series in the first half, which was the plan entering the game. He ran it once and threw an ugly interception to Jay Ward while getting blasted.
