The Gators moving forward in 2022...


Wow, what a difference a week makes. kentucky exposed our
underbelly. To have a successful season some things have to change, no big surprises here, most we knew going in but Kentucky really brought them to light.

Linebackers must cover better. For 2 games now, TEs have run open all over the field.
DBs have to tackle and cover better. Showing improvement but not good enough for SEC play.
Dline needs to develop some depth. They play hard but appear to wear out in the second half.
Richardson must be more consistent. Just make the easy throws and don't throw it to the other team. Not sure what is going on with the QB reads but it looks like he needs to keep the ball more.
Receivers have to get open. I don't know if this is a play calling issue or what but it ain't happening.
We need to get the tight ends more involved in the passing game. As our opponents have show us in the first 2 games, TEs can be a big weapon.
RBs,I believe that there is enough film after 2 games to reduce the carries to just 2 RBs.
Oline is improved. Playing hard, like the D line needs to develop depth.
Special teams are not bad, punter and kicker are great so far, but we need to fair catch kickoffs. This continues to put us in poor field condition every kickoff that we run out.
Play calling needs to improve. example running the ball up the middle on 3rd and 7 or throwing a 2 yard out on 3rd and 10.
I have confidence in our coaches and players that adjustments will be made. Go Gators.
11-1 is still a great year!

As far as LBs they aren't great cover guys that is for sure. Utah had a WR basically playing TE so getting burned by him some was to be expected but KY's were traditional TEs. Even Miller as good as he is against the run isn't one of the better LBs when it comes to covering TEs.

I thought the DBs held up pretty well except for a couple of plays with KY having those speedsters in at WR.

As far as our WRs they are who they are and Pearsall is probably the only one that can be considered good as far as the SEC goes. With our TEs evidently not being good targets so far its hard to see us even having a just below average type of passing game unless Richardson is able to improve with that part of his game.
