Billy Napier, Florida head coach, restrained by multiple assistants during game vs. Tennessee
Published:
It’s an electric atmosphere in Knoxville as the No. 11 Vols take on the No. 20 Gators on Saturday.
Tennessee led Florida 17-14 at the half, thanks to a long touchdown drive that ended with a Hendon Hooker scoring pass with 7 seconds remaining.
The Gators are attempting to fight back against the Vols. QB Anthony Richardson is 11-of-20 for 220 yards and 1 passing touchdown against Tennessee’s defense. Richardson hit tight end, Keon Zipperer, for 44 yards and a touchdown, which was his first touchdown pass of the season. Richardson also rushed for a touchdown on a quarterback run play.
The players weren’t the only ones fired up about the game. Gator head coach Billy Napier had to be restrained and dragged off the field while protesting a call.
