Dan Mullen unloads on defensive coordinator Todd Grantham as Gators defense struggles against Kentucky
Todd Grantham really caught an earful on this one.
Dan Mullen is heated heading into halftime of the Kentucky game, and who could blame him, as the Gators defense is struggling with a one-dimensional Wildcat offense during the first half of the game.
Kentucky’s offense, which is down its best running back (Chris Rodriguez) and several offensive linemen due to COVID tracing, has racked up 165 yards of total offense in the first half. Kentucky has 116 yards on the ground while Terry Wilson has completed six of his nine attempts.
Kentucky has 13 first downs and has gone two for two on fourth down attempts and currently has a 10-7 lead on Florida.
During the latest Kentucky drive, Mullen tore into defensive coordinator Todd Grantham — something much of the Florida fan base has been dying to see.

Grantham has been a target of much angst among the Florida fan base this season but Mullen has been quick to defend the Gator defensive coordinator this season.
It will be interesting to see if Mullen continues to do that after watching this clip.
It doesn’t matter we blew our chance to go the distance by not getting rid of him last season
No surprise about Grantham’s defense. It’s been this way all year but ol’ Dan needs to have a look in the mirror. His offense can’t stay on the field. Not impressed with the play calling so far. Hopefully, some adjustments can be made at halftime.
At the end of the day you have to admit Stoops always brings his best
Seemed a little safe and passive first half.
This brought a big smile to my face, were literally 8 games into the season and the defense is still lost.
Surprised Danny didn’t cause a bench clearing brawl on his own sideline with those antics. He’s known for that. Here comes another reprimand from the SEC
I’m always surprised to see a mizzwho fan on this site. When your team is relevant come back.
Yeah, Mizzo fan who’s team was also part of that brawl. Not alot of room for u to be spouting off. Must still be sore from the behind the woodshed whupping Mullen and the Gator’s put on your team. Why whould you even bring that up? That’s old news
41-17 am I right?
I understand that Mizzou fans do not understand how a real program runs, but guess what? Big time coaches get angry when their team is not playing up to standard.
God forbid a coach show some passion and get the crowd whipped into a frenzy, right mizzou fan? Who wants a coach that gets excited, right?
So who is the offensive Coordinator? He gets and ass chewing too right?
I mean as we heard last week… It’s Kentucky…
Obviously Kentucky’s defense took some notes from the Bama game lol. I’m sure Coach Mullen let everyone hear it at halftime. The only difference is the offense will get right we’re not too worried about that, the defense has done that all year.
However, the defense has done this all year*
So the defense to notes on Florida during their game against Bama?
Sure..
Bamatime have you watched the last 3 Florida and Kentucky games? This isn’t a surprise
What does the last 3 have to do with this game? So you’re saying your the same ole Florida?
UK is still missing a lot of players…
Let me make this simple for you, the last three games have been close. This game is close. Connect the dots. Is it true that you shouldn’t drink the water in Alabama?
How do you not understand lmao, Is that what I said? If you think that playing Bama did not give Kentucky at least a sample and some film to look at too see what they didn’t do, and what they need to do to stop Florida then idk what you’re thinking goes on
Let me make it simple for you… Florida is supposedly getting better and improving to compete for Championships correct? Yet using your example they’re still the same ole Florida…
This UK team isn’t good.
I promise you they didn’t use game film of Bama to game plan for Florida…
Florida and Bama doesn’t really play a similar style of offense.
How can you say Florida isn’t improving? Look at our roster and record since Mullen got here before you say that. You should probably call it a day and go bang your sister bud
You said look at the last 3 game against UK… You’re the one saying they’re no better than they were…
Are you upset? You sound stupid with personal attacks….
No what I’m saying is it seems like stoops plans his season with beating Florida.
I never said that bamatime, where did you get that from?
Really? LMAO…
Get what?
As in the game plan from Bama
I never said they took a game plan from Bama to beat Florida. That makes no sense to me so where did you get that from?
Can you not see there is more people commenting here than just me and you? Maybe I am addressing the person that said it?
Oh I see, so you’re just going off topic from our conversation. Makes sense.
I’m Responding to the person that replied to me.. You’re not the only person that replied to me…
It’s simple really ..
I haven’t seen anyone else reply in this thread. Anyways you should be worried about auburn more than Florida winning this game
You don’t see flawda boys post above? You can’t be serious..
Bama’s game isn’t on yet. I don’t care if Florida wins or loses. I’m just watching the game talking football….
I could just start taking personal shots at you if that how you prefer to roll?
What’s funny is your team is playing and you’re here commenting on SDS…
Ok ok I looked over that, was simply looking for the ugly A logo to reply to. But taking shots is all ok with me considering I’ve already took some
I’d rather talk football… Talking about people’s family that you don’t know is stupid.
What’s wrong with talking smack while watching my team play?
That’s what you call a stereotype, if I don’t know your family than why take it so seriously
Why even take personal shots at people on a forum talking sports?
Can you not keep your smack talk about football?
What can I say? I’m a rebel. At least Kentucky takes pride in their race horses being inbred
I’m pretty sure there is a word or two for what you are but Rebel is probably not one of them..
Lol all I can say is ever since Georgia fans got ran off of Florida posts I got a little bored
Florida’s defense couldn’t get lined up correctly. When UK was in the redzone, UK had trips right with only two UF DBs over to guard them. I saw our true freshman DL Dexter yelling over at Marco Wilson (senior) to get to the other side. We straight up look lost, and it hasn’t gotten any better as the year’s gone by. Need to worry about UT and LSU afterwards, but Bama should have a field day with this defense. Go Gators.
It needed to be done. Grantham can’t even get the guys lined up right. Maybe Mullen can motivate him to do his job.
Don’t be deceived Gators fans. Stoops gonna pull a fast one on you. All those second half penalties are designed to give your team a comfortable lead and then Wham! Once your team has gone to sleep…well…you know what will happen next.
UK needs to get a QB that can pass.. Everyone knows they can’t stretch the field. I’m surprised stoops hasn’t found a QB.
…and so the game plan unfolds as predicted. Lull the Gators to sleep, throw two interceptions, and Wham! Game over.
Haha…well, you’re right, the game is over!
Let me see if i can guess this one, uhhhh, you lose?
Correct, except make that three interceptions.
Florida — a good team , a good story with trask—but they aren’t in Alabama’s class due talent differences from recruiting— more than likely, alabama beats Florida easily in the sec title game — then matches up,with Notre dame in the title game
Notre Dame wouldn’t even be the best team in either division of the SEC. You had me until the “matching up” with Bama comment.
GT your getting a little head of yourself aren’t you . first ND will have to beat Clemson Again ? Personally I believe florida can match Alabama’s offense straight up , now our defense is struggling . I would not count my chickens before the eggs hatch .
We match up with Bama offensively! But our defense is just trash! Bamas D is not dominant, i would say mediocre. They get enough stops to get the offense back on the field. If the Florida offense is healthy game day i would say they easily put up 40+ on Bamas D. Nobody has SHUTDOWN the Gators all year! Gators are their own worst enemy
brc4wc we only brawl and clear benches when someone takes a cheap shot on our QB ….
I can’t remember when UK would have mustered up enough offense to deserve a tongue lashing.
