The Week That Was: Five thoughts on the FAU game

Week one of the 2021 Gators football season is in the books. The No. 13 Gators defeated Florida Atlantic, 35-14, on Saturday in a game that was hard to watch at times and thrilling at others.

UF will hit the road this week for the first time to take on South Florida. But first, here are my five thoughts on the week that was.

1. Emory Jones’ performance was very discouraging, to say the least.

I knew he wasn’t the most accurate passer in the country, but I expected much more from him than what I saw on Saturday.
