Florida fans want to see more of Emory Jones in the second half

The Florida Gators are locked in a battle with the Michigan Wolverines in Saturday afternoon’s Peach Bowl in Atlanta.
Heading into halftime, the score is 13-10 in favor of the Gators following a touchdown on the last Florida drive of the first half.
However, some missed opportunities by QB Feleipe Franks have Gator fans ready to see backup QB Emory Jones. Jones played a couple of snaps in the first half and made some progress down the field before being pulled in favor of Franks again.
Now, fans are wondering why Jones didn’t get the chance to finish that drive, which only led to a field goal from the Gators. As you can see below, many fans want to see more of Jones in the second half:

@FloridaGators logic right there. Emory Jones gets down the field relatively good and then they put Franks back in and the drive goes down hill.

Will we see him again in the second half? The Gators will likely need to keep the pressure on heading into the third quarter.
