Billy Napier praises Gators fans in The Swamp: 'There's not another place like it'

Billy Napier’s Florida Gators just stamped the best win of the Napier era Saturday night in Gainesville.

The Gators embarrassed Tennessee Saturday behind a strong run game, an incredible first half game plan and, let’s face it, a dreadful performance from Tennessee. But that dreadful performance – partly on account of all the Tennessee penalties – can be traced back to the fans at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.

The Swamp was rocking Saturday night, to put it simply. And Napier couldn’t be more grateful to the Gator fans who showed up and showed out Saturday:

“When it’s sold out, and they are into it like they were tonight, there’s not another place like it in the country. A pretty good night.” — #Gators HC Billy Napier on Saturday night in The Swamp

“A pretty good night” may be an understatement.

Florida once again has life after winning their first SEC game of the season. They’ll look to improve their record to 3-1 next week against Charlotte before taking on Kentucky in Week 5.
