That was the narrative... Looking back, though, South Carolina ran pretty effectively against us. Arkansas never had a chance to establish its running game (thankfully), due to all the early turnovers.

Like Josh just said, I think Florida did a nice job of mixing up the runs outside the tackles with misdirections and the pulling guard trap plays. Our linebackers and defensive ends rarely figured out what Florida was doing.

We talk a lot about gameplanning opponents, but I think it's pretty apparent that Florida's coaching staff did the much more difficult self-examination of strengths and weaknesses. Once the momentum went Florida's way in the 2nd quarter, you could see the players start to buy in. It was an impressive turn around.
