The confidence level is rising, that’s for sure. There were real questions about whether Florida was even going to get to a bowl after losing to Kentucky, but that’s been reassessed now that the Wildcats look like the second-best team in the East. It still stings because the loss broke the streak, but there’s no shame in losing to this UK team. If you exclude Kentucky’s fluky defensive touchdown on the last play of the game, the Gators lost 21-16. That’s not that bad, and even with the weird TD Florida has come the closest of anyone against the Wildcats so far.
Playing Nice — Florida
