UF quarterback Feleipe Franks arrived to American History class a conquering hero.

On his way, some students congratulated the low-key redshirt freshman. As Franks reached his seat, a few awkward stares followed.

But once class began Monday, Franks was in for a surprise.

Professor Steve Noll was as giddy as everyone else over Franks’ game-winning 63-yard touchdown pass to beat Tennessee on the final play Saturday in the Swamp.

“We have this trophy in class. If you ask like a good question or something of that sort or have a good answer, then you get the trophy,” Franks said Monday.
