Billy Napier speaks to Florida's comeback ability, ways to improve earlier in games
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.

Billy Napier on the #Gators‘ comeback ability, particularly in second halves: “It’s easier to maintain your poise when you understand what happened, why it happened and what you can do to fix it. The defense is a great example of that.”

Better game plans.
Especially in the second halves.
Sun Belt Conference.
TAMU just lost a 5-Star commitment after their loss to the Gators.
Although we’re not talking 5* at this point, we can probably avoid a similar scenario if we play on out like we’re capable of.
Maybe Evan Stewart will hit the TP. We could use a game-breaker for a WR
Wasn’t a game breaker Saturday
In his defense, he can’t throw himself the ball either.
Could really use a good transfer portal this year. Would be nice to pick up a few with experience
At least we have a lot of underclassmen getting game experience in the SEC this year.
That experience should be valuable next year.
Well in this last game there was no need for a come back, the O was humming from the get go and half of the points were scored in the first half. Let’s keep it this way the rest of the season
I believe Napier was mostly referring to our sleepwalking defense. If memory serves, the Gators trailed at halftime and it looked like the TAMU offense was playing against air.
I do agree with that. It would be nice to have all 3 units playing well from the get go at the same time. Or in the same game. The O took the first half off in the Georgia game by the time they woke up the hole was too deep
42-20
2008
YOU ALMOST BEAT TENNESSEE!!!
Baby steps Real. Baby steps.
I’m amused with our UGA friends’ shortness of memory. Smart inherited a team from Richt that won 10 the prior season and only managed to go 7-5. Napier inherited a dumpster fire from Mullet and they expect
– championship level performance from these Gators.
IT IS NICE TO WHIP DAT AZZ YEAR AFTER YEAR CHUMPS
Kirkm they did almost beat Tennessee, thank you for noticing and caring. :)
KEEP IT UP AND YOU WILL HAVE THAT GASPARILLA BOWL TROPHY ON LOCKDOWN!!!
See above post and enjoy your view this year. We’ll see you again at next year’s Cocktail Party.
WHERE YOU WILL GET BEAT AGAIN. YOU WILL BE LIVING WHAT UGA DID IN THE 1990’S AND I WILL BE HERE TO REMIND YOU OF ALL THE BS YOU TALKED THEN!!! 44-20 CHUMPS. AR FOR HEISMAN
YOU WILL SEE DEEZ NUTZ IN YO MOUF
Emilio, because he’s such a humble guy, I think he’s referring to 42-20 repeatedly as code for how much his IQ has fallen this year. It’s a cry for help!
Living in the past isn’t healthy, just let go and enjoy your team’s current success for however long it lasts, you’ll have more joy. Life’s too short for getting seriously worked up over a rivalry.
“YOU WILL SEE DEEZ NUTZ IN YOU MOUF”?
My, what a fascination you have. Then again, quite sure you didn’t get your round mouth from eating square meals.
Geez kirkm.. when did you turn into croch and negan ?
I think he just came out of a coma. He hasn’t posted his nonsense in awhile.
I LOVE THE ALL-CAPS APPROACH. REALLY MAKES HIM LOOK SMART.
He’s a special kind of dumb, not yet Corch and Negan levels but trying very hard
LOL!!!
