Billy Napier is aware that Florida has had a penchant this season of making comebacks late in games.
Of course, it’d be easier if the Gators simply played in the first half like they do in the second half, however, that’s still something elusive that they’re chase, he said Monday.
“Can we put it together, possession after possession?,” he said.
Napier cited the defense in fueling the comebacks, and added, “It’s easier to maintain your poise when you understand what happened, why it happened and what you can do to fix it.”
Billy Napier on how Florida can play 1H like it does 2H: “I woke up thinking about that. That’s who we are. That’s where we’re at. We’re still chasing that. Can we put it together, possession after possession?”
Napier notes #Gators are better protecting ball and taking it away.
