This play may not seem significant. It got some yardage back on a Jawaan Taylor holding call that negated a 53-yard reception by Trevon Grimes, and two downs later on 3rd-and-8, Franks threw a pick to end the Gators’ advance.

However, it wasn’t until the next possession that Toney’s catch-and-run became a play of much importance and helped lead UF to its 13-6 victory over coach Dan Mullen’s former team.
