In light of the Florida – Idaho game being cancelled due to “unsafe field conditions” Gators head coach Will Muschamp has released a statement regarding the news.
“It’s unfortunate that the weather didn’t cooperate for tonight’s season opener,” head coach Will Muschamp said. “After long discussions with the head referee, it was determined that the field conditions were too dangerous for the student-athletes.
Muschamp added that the Florida players were fired up and he thanked the fans for their support through the rain.
“As everyone saw with that opening kickoff, I thought that our guys were ready and fired up to play. We appreciate the fans coming out and supporting us and sitting through several weather delays. It was amazing the energy and passion shown in the stands all night. The Gator Nation showed why they’re the best fans in the country, starting with one of the most enthusiastic Gator Walks that we’ve had since I’ve been here.”
Drew Laing will be providing analysis and insight on Florida, Georgia, Missouri and South Carolina.
