It sure looked like the Cats were on their way to upsetting Florida and starting a new streak of their own in the rivalry. Big Blue Nation was having a blast in Kroger Field through most of the game, but the wheels fell off in the fourth quarter and an 11-point lead turned into an eight-point loss thanks to a number of blunders on both sides of the ball.
It’s midnight so let’s overreact to all of it while we’re still upset:
The targeting call on TJ Carter changed everything.
Instead of a sack on 2nd down that would’ve put Florida in a 3rd-and-long situation in the fourth quarter, the Gators moved up 15 yards and earned a free first down with a questionable targeting penalty assessed to Carter on the sack.
