College football fans weigh in on ugly start to FSU-Florida game

Florida-Florida State used to be a big-time rivalry. It’s still an intense game for the 2 fan bases, but it is no longer as relevant nationally as it has been in the recent past.
On Saturday in Gainesville, the Seminoles and Gators both entered the game with 5-6 records, meaning the winner was going to go bowling while the loser was going to have its season end.
Naturally, fans have been treated to an ugly game thus far. Through 1 quarter, there have already been multiple interceptions, multiple punts and more mistakes made.
Here’s some of what fans are saying on Twitter as they watch Florida hold on to a 7-0 lead early in the second quarter:
I hadn't watched either FSU or Florida this year and NOW, I can see why. #FSUvsUF

I would say this game is getting ugly in terms of execution, but that'd be wrong. It's not GETTING ugly, it already IS ugly. #FSUvsUF

Florida FSU is going to come down to which team turns it over last.

Florida intercepts for a turnover and then IMMEDIATELY turns it back over to FSU. I’ve seen enough. They’re not going to stress me out like this today. Go Gators though! ?

Will things improve for either team as the game goes on? Tune in to ESPN if you dare.
