Cheers: Gator Twitter reacts to Florida's streak-snapping win over Georgia in the Cocktail Party
The Florida Gators have snapped their losing streak to Kirby Smart’s Georgia Bulldogs. After Georgia opened with a 14-0 lead, Florida went on a 38-7 run to take a 38-21 lead into the locker room.
The Florida fireworks quieted in the second half, but UF did enough to hold on, even though Gators fans were nervous at times as UGA hung around. Dan Mullen’s Gators came away with a 44-28 victory in Jacksonville.
Here’s how Florida fans and media members are reacting to the game, with a few outsider reactions sprinkled in:

All that said, remarkably impressive performance from @FloridaGators. Knew their offense could fill it up, but their defense is starting to round into form. Still a few things to iron out, but they will be a dangerous team down the stretch.

Is this the game that signals the changing of the guard in the SEC East?

I’m not paid millions of dollars to make football decisions but going for it there makes no sense at all

Just kick the FG. So what he missed one. He’s the best kicker in the country? There is literally not a single explanation for that horrific decision

Faton Bauta was better than D'Wan Mathis.

Dear @CoachDanMullen,
You are, without the slightest of a doubt, the coach we need.
GO GATORS!
