Florida fans roast Billy Napier following awful first half against Texas in Week 11
Florida fans are not happy with how the first half has gone against Texas in Week 11. The Gators are down 35-0 at the break in Austin.
It’s not the best performance considering Billy Napier just received a vote of confidence as the head coach. Turnovers, missed field goals, sacks, and questionable play-calling have all been factors during this 1st half.
As expected. Fl0rida fans took to social media to air out their frustrations following the miserable start.
Not sure how you can watch this game and think Scott Stricklin and Billy Napier need MORE time

On 4th and 2 from the 8-yard line in a 14-0 game, Billy Napier opts for a field goal.
False start, then a missed kick from 30 yards.
Ball don’t lie.

Florida is genuinely such a joke of a program. Why they are keeping Billy Napier is dumbfounding

Billy Napier didn’t mind rotating Mertz and DJ but he’ll be damned if he’s gonna rotate Warner out of there. For the love of God try someone else.

Impressive game day experience here.
It’s embarrassing to come play a team like Texas led by Billy Napier

The circumstances do not matter. Billy Napier is the worst coach in the history of UF football and is currently the worst coach in the SEC

Third-string quarterback Aidan Warner has struggled to get comfortable and it looks like it could be a long day for the Gators. With a loss in Week 11, the Gators would fall to 4-5 on the season.
With games against LSU, Ole Miss, and Florida State remaining, the Gators still need 2 wins to secure bowl eligibility. Napier’s squad also failed to reach a bowl in 2023, so the team is in danger of missing a bowl game for 2 seasons in a row for the first time since 1985-86.
