Got to say, not impressed with the Gators discipline on the field under Musty. Way too many critical mistakes, personal fouls and the usual passing forearms, shoulders, etc. And another eye gouge attempt on Gurley. The Lizards must have an assistant coach just to teach that.

GEORGIA WINS!!!! LIZARDS LOSE!!!! Congrats Dawgs. At least the Gators put up a fight. Yep. We were excited in the first half, but were getting a bit worried there near the end of the game. Do you think Muschamp will be in trouble if they lose 2 more games? They haven't improved in his time.

LOL...A GREAT day for chipping !!! Loox like Gurley boy is gonna get a 1/2 game rest next week and after watching him today, I'd say he needs all the rest he kann get !! LOL Gurley had 100 yards rushing - 1 TD. 3 pass receptions for 87 yards - 1 TD. Sure, he needs the rest.U kann post all the stats you want but don't think the NFL scoutz aren't watching his every move and with him being gassed every other play and starting fights when he does play, he just keeps slip, slip, slipping in the draft and big money is goin bye-bye....One might even kall it Gas money

I'd like to think Muschamp is in trouble, but Foley has already said he will be back no matter what happens this season.
IMO, Muschamp is officially on notice of sitting on the hot seat going into the 2014 season. However, the Gators, barring another year of devastating injuries, should be a very good team in 2014 in terms of talent, depth, and seasoned experience.

Do you think Muschamp will be in trouble if they lose 2 more games? They haven't improved in his time.I don't think there is anyway he is gone this year. Last year gave him next year. Now, if Pease isn't sent packing, Muschamp won't make it to 2015.

I'm guessing that due to team injuries this year, he'll be safe....They've just got to keep that recruiting machine well oiled and point to next year...All they kann do...Well,,,,they KOULD still be a spoiler down the road, lol....

Just read that yet another starting offensive lineman was injured in a scooter accident, breaking his arm, and is lost for a while. Tyler Moore, I believe.
Wow...even I'm starting to feel bad for you guys at this point...

Just read that yet another starting offensive lineman was injured in a scooter accident, breaking his arm, and is lost for a while. Tyler Moore, I believe. Wow...even I'm starting to feel bad for you guys at this point... Tyler Moore is a G who poorly played RT out of necessity. He switched to LT because UF lost the 1 and 2 at the position and played well against UGALY. UF is down to a 4th stringer at LT and no depth to speak of on the OL. The season that started with Jeff Driskel missing close to 3 weeks of fall practice with an emergency appendectomy, RT Chaz Green going down for the year, and Matt Jones missing all of fall practice and the first game of the season has been a steady progression of injuries like I've never seen in all my years of following Florida football. It's a darned disappointment, but there is nothing that can be done about the injuries. UF's season was snake bitten from the day before the start of fall practice onward. Will Muschamp? He deserves another year, but a change needs to be made at OC and possibly at OL. Even before the injuries, UF's offense was underperforming for a 2nd season under Brent Pease. Whatever he brought from Boise State was not the Boise State offense.

By Robbie Andreu Staff writer
Published: Wednesday, November 6, 2013 at 11:46 a.m. Last Modified: Wednesday, November 6, 2013 at 11:46 a.m. The Florida Gators finally came out of a game with no new injuries last Saturday, only to have yet another starter go down this week in a scooter accident, of all things.
Left tackle Tyler Moore broke his elbow in a scooter accident Tuesday night and will miss the remainder of the season, UF coach Will Muschamp confirmed Wednesday on the SEC coaches’ teleconference.
“Tyler Moore was riding home on his scooter and he came around a curve and the (scooter) came out from under him and he has a compound fracture of his elbow,” Muschamp said. “He’s having surgery as we speak. He’ll be out for the season.”
Muschamp said Moore’s spot in the lineup will be taken by Max Garcia, who moves outside from his left guard position. Muschamp said either Kyle Koehne or Ian Silberman will start at left guard, and that Trip Thurman will be the backup at both tackle positions.
Moore was coming off perhaps his best performance of the season against Georgia after making the move from right tackle to left to replace starter D.J. Humphries, who has a sprained knee.
The Gators will now be going into Saturday’s game without their top three offensive tackles — Moore, Humphries and Chaz Green, who is out for the season with a torn labrum. That’s nine players lost to injury for the season, and fifth offensive starter.

Truly the Gators have had one of those years that seems to come around every now and then. We had a sting of running back ACL's for 3 or 4 years back about ten years ago. It is very frustrating I know when you look at the talent on your team and know what they could be doing but lose so much of that talent to injuries. Especially stupid ass one like having a scooter accident. I can live with Duke breaking his ankle in the flow of the game, just as we have had to live with Dorsetts knee injury. But losing kids to off the field injuries just seems to punctuate the problem. Good thing is injuries seem to go in streaks and then you should have a few years of good fortune as things sort of balance out.

Jeff Driskel Update From Gatorzone:
Thursday November 7, 2013
Driskel Eager to Return to Field; Junior QB Had Cast Removed This Week
By SCOTT CARTER GatorZone.com Senior Writer
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Jeff Driskel imagined a much different junior season when he ran onto the field for the opener against Toledo.
In late August, Driskel had visions of a trip to Atlanta, some big wins along the way, and perhaps much more if all the chips fell into place.
Driskel savored a more personal victory on Tuesday. He finally had the cast removed from his lower right leg, a result of a season-ending broken fibula on Sept. 21 against Tennessee.
Another small victory followed on Wednesday when Driskel was able to start physical therapy.
Jeff Driskel
"I did some motion in my ankle," Driskel said. "It didn't hurt when I was moving it around, so that's good. It's great to be out of the cast to where I can move it around."
In what has turned into an injury-plagued season for the 4-4 Gators heading into Saturday's Homecoming game against Vanderbilt, you can make the argument that the loss of Driskel hurt the most. Some might say it was the loss of defensive tackle Dominique Easley three days later in practice.
Regardless, when a team loses its starting quarterback and defensive leader for the season in a span of less than 72 hours, the aftermath is rarely just a bump in the road.
Driskel struggled to cope with his first major injury in the days after Tennessee defensive end Marlon Walls fell on his lower right leg in the first quarter of Florida's 31-17 win over the Vols seven weeks ago.
"I knew it was broken,'' he said. "I've never broken a bone before, but I felt a snap and I knew it wasn't good when I tried to stand up and my leg kind of gave out a little bit. I was definitely walking off that field. After a pick six, I'm not going to have anybody come and get me."
Driskel immediately waved to the sideline as Tennessee's Devaun Swafford raced 62 yards on the interception to put the Vols in front. Still, he was able to make it to the sideline under his own power before the team's medical personnel gave him crutches and took him to the locker room.
He soon learned that nine quarters into the season he was done for the year.
"Everybody likes to think it's not going to happen to them, but unfortunately it's happened to a lot of us this year,'' Driskel said. "I was real, real bummed for the first week or two just because I worked a lot in the offseason and I thought this was going to be a good year for myself and a good year for us, and then it was taken away all on one play.
"It was very disappointing, but like I've told a lot of people, I'm not the first one to ever get hurt. It's part of the game. Looking back is not going to do anything for anybody. I'm going to do what I can to be ready for spring ... control what I can control and get better for next year."
Driskel was limited in what he could do until this week. He couldn't begin rehab until the bone healed. He had surgery four days after the injury to have a metal plate inserted into his leg. The recovery process is estimated at six months.
To stay involved with the team, Driskel has attended team meetings and tried to help Tyler Murphy, who took over as the starter, any way he can during their meetings with offensive coordinator Brent Pease.
"It's very important [to be in meetings]. Just because I'm missing time on the field doesn't mean I'm missing time learning," he said. "I wouldn't say I'm getting quite the mental reps I would be getting on the practice field, but I'm definitely staying involved, knowing the game plan, seeing the plays on TV. I know what the plays are, so I'm more than just a standard fan in that aspect.
"More than anything, it's just being around the guys. If I didn't go to meetings and stuff like that, I would rarely see them."
A true junior, since Driskel will have played in less than 30 percent of the Gators’ games by season’s end, he can apply to the SEC for a medical hardship waiver in December and still have two years of eligibility remaining.
Prior to his season ending, Driskel completed 42 of 61 passes (68.9 percent) with two touchdowns and three interceptions. While Murphy has performed capably under difficult circumstances, the 6-foot-4, 240-pound Driskel's arm strength and athleticism have been missed at times.
As the Gators prepare to host Vanderbilt in an important game to keep their bowl hopes alive, it stirs memories of Driskel's record-setting performance in Nashville a year ago. In a 31-17 win over the Commodores, Driskel scored three touchdowns and rushed for 177 yards, a UF record for a quarterback.
After winning a quarterback battle with fellow sophomore Jacoby Brissett during the 2012 fall camp, Driskel led the Gators to an 11-2 record and established himself as the Gators' quarterback of the future. Brissett opted to transfer to N.C. State after the season.
Driskel hopes to be able to get back on the field during spring practice.
"That's a goal I want to meet and I'll do everything that I can,'' he said. "If I'm not ready, I won't push anything and I know the training staff is going to do whatever is best for me. We've got a great staff on hand and they're going to do everything they possibly can to help me."
Driskel expects to take another small step Saturday. He plans to be on the sideline when the Gators host Vanderbilt. Florida has not played at home in over a month and Driskel was unable to travel. He has watched the games on TV but is looking forward to joining his teammates on the sideline.
"It was just a waiting game for a long time,'' Driskel said. "I couldn't do anything. The only thing I could really do was stay off it. It's been tough. You can't really do much or go anywhere. A lot of Netflix."

UF Picks Up 15th Commitment - There are 7 seats left on the UF recruiting bus:
UF football picks up 15th verbal commit By Zach Abolverdi Correspondent
Published: Friday, November 8, 2013 at 2:31 p.m. Last Modified: Friday, November 8, 2013 at 2:31 p.m. Florida picked up its first commitment in almost three months when Derby (Kan.) tight end DeAndre Goolsby announced his decision to attend UF on Friday.
The Rivals250 member, who is ranked No. 3 at his position by Rivals.com, chose the Gators over Arkansas, Kansas State, Ohio State and Oklahoma.
He attended Florida's summer camp in June and officially visited UF on Sept. 21 for the Tennessee game.
The Gators now have 15 members and two tight ends in their 2014 class, as Goolsby joins C'yontai Lewis of Alabaster (Ala.) Kingwood Christian.
