Social media reacts to Florida's disastrous first-half showing vs. FCS foe Samford
Things are actively going from bad to worse in Gainesville. Florida is in the midst of a 3-game losing streak, and Saturday’s halftime score might be the worst of all.
After last week’s blowout loss to South Carolina, Florida coach Dan Mullen fired DC Todd Grantham. That change has not had the desired impact, at least in terms of what is on the scoreboard in Week 11.
Heading to halftime, Samford is up over the Gators by a score of 42-35. No, that is not a typo as the FCS Bulldogs are giving Florida their best shot in the Swamp.
Just how drastic is that score? Samford entered Week 11 with a 3-5 record and losses to UT- Martin, Mercer, East Tennessee State, UT-Chattanooga, and VMI.
Social media is understandably giving it to the Gators:

Samford was of course Bobby Bowden's alma mater. He was later their head coach.
Still tormenting the Gators.

Can we just jump like 5 years into the future? This is going to be a miserable few years

Definitely just FIRE Mullen. We need a fresh start with a coach who's a motivator and recruiter that can get strong Coordinators on board

This is the college football equivalent of your waterbed getting repoed

The most points a Gator team has ever given up in a half….and to FCS Stamford. How can Dan not lose his job tonight! He’s lost the locker room and now we’re losing recruits. For every game we keep him we are setting the stage for the next few years from recruiting perspective

The Bulldogs from Athens crushed the Gators spirit and season and Samford is taking their soul! Dogs and Dawgs 🔝

But we’re still counting Florida as a “quality” win for Bama, right??
