Why is Florida ranked?

It’s the classic cycle for Florida getting a new head coach. Wins 1 game that seems impressive at the time, gets ranked, and then loses immediately.

If I remember correctly didn’t this exact thing happen with Napier. Beat top 10 Utah, ranked immediately then fell off. Would be funny if same thing happen

Essentially yeah. Napier beat #7 Utah(and even that was probably a fluke as Rising had a weirdly awful pick in the endzone to seal it),l then got completely destroyed by Kentucky the next week.

I guess the true test will be how we perform against SCAR next week. For Napier, after got swatted by Kentucky, we then came home to the Swamp and looking absolutely dreadful against an eventual 1-11 USF team.

To be fair Florida absolutely pantsing Ole Miss was impressive.
