What Dan Mullen said after Florida's 41-38 loss to Texas A&M
Dan Mullen knows his defense has to get better. That was the theme of a brief postgame press conference at Kyle Field where No. 4 Florida fell 41-38 to No. 21 Texas A&M on Saturday.
A rough day for Mullen got worse as he fell out of his chair at the start of his presser.
Other than saying he’s got to evaluate everything going on on defense, not many answers from Dan Mullen. Only spent six minutes on post-game presser.
His chair fell over when sat down on it as presser began. Not much going right for #Gators today.

Mullen thought they were about 10 yards away from FG range before the fumble.

Mullen on secondary confusion issues, “we got to get better.” Wouldn’t dive too much more into the defense. Obviously, not happy.

Mullen on #Gators run defense: "We'll look at it. Hopefully we get some depth back. Hopefully Khris Bogle and Kyree (Campbell) are available next week."

'Hopefully the administration allows us to pack the Swamp,' Dan Mullen said, pointing toward the governor's mandate. A&M a big factor he said.

Mullen said he wants to see 90,000 in The Swamp against LSU. "We passed a law in our state that we can do that," he said.

Mullen: "We've got to make plays and get off the field. Last week they were 6-of-15 on 3rd down, so the games weren't really similar."
