the first snap from scrimmage Montrell Johnson will be in the back field with him in the pistol formation Trey Wilson goes in motion and it will be a give to Johnson now legu is going to check the play just ahead of a second and nine big hole for Johnson great spin move at the 35 yd line had 71 yd touchdown run last week had 106 of the team's 139 rushing yards that one went for 16 Florida trying to capitalize on the Samford turnover and here is lagway a skill St standpoint than Graham Merz bouncing it out here his yards last week Tryon web out of the back field will line up as a receiver empty backfield flague throws and trayon web is going to take the direct snap and he's going to get hit in the back field take advantage of good field position after the Samford turnover game right there the safety came into the box and they needed the zone to him and he got in the back field and penetrated back and that's got to happen Damonte wither spoon in the back field critton and throwing to him on the Run ways with reverses and Sprint outs see right attack going back decides to run downhill for this yard and a half will they use the quarterback here they will not they're going to go inside and pick it up that way with wither back to Witherspoon Britton five for five throwing the ball he'll go back Crittenden heat it up he's Elusive and he High snap priton recovers and second down and 18 play fake quick throw create a toll on them if sford keeps getting first downs they you know they get tired off his back foot Quincy kman gets it to Ian cousin was a great play the offense number 550k pop pass EJ Mason Jim DK the senior wiconsin transfer good Punt and fair catch called for uh very demanding started at the 43 of Samford on their first series after the turnover deep in their own territory legue fakes the toss to Johnson he's going to go up top showing off that arm he's got a man Elijah [Applause] Badger avoiding tackers staying on his feet came off of it with a playaction shot there it is beautiful play action fake by DJ look at this football sent to take the direct snap mon TR Johnson in the wild cat trips to the boundary inside hand off and it just like that Trey smack identity right now this is the identity they want to have run it play action shot it and they're doing it moved the ball pretty well against this beat up defense so far just nothing to show for it yet cousin do not have that tonight here's qu critton the quarterback Quincy critton does not have that inh helmet communication Samford quite frankly can't afford it that's what Chris hatri told us we're a FCS talk to him guide him it's it's a huge Advantage second down at five plenty of time and now running out of it and critton offense for the second week in a row cron lost it he SC scles and it looks like no that that that that can't happen rugby style kick rise to the occasion another true freshman in the ball game number 13 Jaden ball the running back with the first career start Graham Merz out with a concussion and Jaden B again offensive coordinator Russ C calls him a freak they fake it to him here lagway wants to go deep again he's got dek Jim dek for three throwing the football 127 yds for lagu back to the ground and ball comes out it's turned over in the that was just popped loose it's team with a turnover [Applause] now this is Withers Ball's got to go in the end zone for the Gator priton looking for room starters on this Gator defense from a season ago it's critton quarterback run all key to staying on schedule for these Bulldogs heavy underdogs tonight critton again taking that play clock well inside a five second down and long critton he's going to check it down to Damonte Witherspoon they get it off kittan rolls away now he's going to be yard line to return this punt a good kick from Thorley and great special Team monel Johnson in the backfield lagway going down the seam and he's got it in the hands of Hayden Hansen the tight end playing with a lot of poise start start only the off first down 15 talked a lot about discipline this week first and 15 that's that's a prudent decision Johnson lines up to the near side as a receiver he's going to get it on the receiver screen a little DJ has time nice catch Elijah Badger Trey Wilson in motion they're going to give the hand off to Johnson and he's going to sauner in and Trey SM to get the identity of his team as especially his offense established and I think we're seeing that tonight and that's a really they fumbled on the opening Series have had to punt three times critton looked right critton 9 of 13 34 yds passing looking to throw here on second and 10 left they can put the tail back to the right that's what they're what they're chipping and is Micah Kelly is back in the back field to the right of critton he's going to get it he's going to be it's a mobile quarterback that's cousin feel him get a three-score game critton no CH DK is going to call a program Samford and has capability to hurt you Johnson trying to Johnson they fake the reverse and lway passed for over 8,000 yds one under career touchdowns at Willis High School just north of Houston there's a ton of family here tonight third down and long he's being chased he's in trouble he escapes stays on his feet he got himself out of the pocket then tried to get back in that's a that's a helmet shot now that's a that looks like a helmet to helmet shot that's tough shot he took shw gets it away good punt inside the 15 the starting quarterback was hurt he's going to toss it out to wither spoon and play action cron has a man and great up 90 seconds before half PR it under that his hands on second and s quick throw to the out play fake critton feeling the pressure and he's set up the return DK calls for in the game there is number three going in motion keep it on the ground look out here comes Johnson right up the middle the field no timeouts for Florida quickly go flue steps up very least they'd like to maybe get into try smack field goal range Johnson because they probably got two plays like way to the outside FS are going to have to spike this thing FL way with some pressure off the edge goes to boing doesn't look like a shot at the end zone formation slow develop all indications are that he has a very bright future as Florida will start with the football here in the second half and this is returnable this is Jaden ball back next week for Florida Montell Johnson a couple of touchdowns in the first half he starts in the back field but they're going to get it to Trey Wilson Wilson acrossing rookie season in the SEC with Ricky peol in the NFL now he's their number one target lway he wants him and it's incomplete the receiver was open I think it was uh covered very very well back to the ground [Applause] Game playaction Pass again lightway looking to go deep another long shot looking for tank Hawkins and he got it standing on these playaction shots right he's really locked into one receiver and he's sending it down the B down the field sense that these two are going to be in quite a battle for who's starting on that field and uh trying to get this offensive sford going will end round play Damonte Withers spoon in the back field for the Bulldogs okay and and get the Gators running then come back and puncture them with an inside run that's for the Bulldogs second and eight play action printon whistles one to the 50 yd line it's caught and sledding against this Gator defense this is Ian cousin here comes the pressure Blitz off the edge and they run Rus goes in motion take the hand off the Wither spoon it's critton keeping it for so far tonight second down and nine critton rolling out and he's going to get it to Preston B after the play was over personal foul Necessary Roughness on the defense number three doing number 21 Desmond Watson right in the middle here 449 lbs Damonte wither spoon third down they can get a first down inside the one wither CER you can sneak it here critton wither boom meet some resistance kick [Applause] off on the offense number 79 second half block ah deeper a lot of fun and we're seeing the coming out party for DJ lagway another Young quarterback in the Florida system the true freshman out of Texas 4 jacobe Jackson into the ball game at running back rer Jr from Pensacola had a couple of carries last week and they're going to feed it to him see what he can do nice move of course the emphasis is going to be on the Run game tonight for Florida poor showing last's running game um was dominant and I think they've done a great job in the Run game here 15 15 yds on the ground 6 minutes to go third quarter blackway sensing pressure is going to launch it deep toward the end zone and it's caught touchdown 24 yds passing now and this is touchdown pass number two yeah I think they have the right formula for him at least right now and that is to run the ball had trouble with last week he was sacked three times of course hit smack to kick it deep and and fair catch called for at the so sford with a scoring Drive their first of the night on their last series they go to work and they on kman pumps throws deep ball sideline crit backpedaling checks it down return here Thor short kick DK coming up he's going to let it bounce you can see his arm and his ability here tonight with other family members and he is not disappointed as Trey Wilson in a game situation after last week absolutely every bit of experience helps every time he's in command of that offense his leadership and his personality comes through good pursue second and 13 Hayden Hansen the tight end the lineup wide right like way has had a lot of time to throw tonight and he hits another good play for him good experience from him in the drop back pass game third catch for B taking a shot at the paint again incomplete Dany the cornerback he's tangled up with Badger here second and 10 drop it off short to Montreal Johnson slips attack Tryon Webb in the ball game of the Back Field it's going to be a run for [Applause] lagu oh there's another helmet to helmet hit time tonight that they haven't reviewed a helmet to helmet hit on lier Johnson 40 seconds to go here in the quarter play action rolling up this is Will long sustained drive here for Florida Play number him web start of the fourth quarter in Florida webing the pistol he'll feed it to number five mue looking for another T holding on the offense number 70 again they opened up competition along that offensive line this week in PR second down and goal lagway has all kinds of time over the middle throw Johnson out of the back field not a penalty marker and Wilson has to make a great effort to ha that one illegal formation on the offense number 75 was not lined up on the line of SC More consistency there as well so we got still a lot of ball left to play here and and like right now to become a better team to handle that stretch critton to Rus he's going to throw it back to critton and he dropped the football and it's second down Ian cousin going to get some young guys some reps receiver screen DJ Mason focus on you know one play at a time one day at a time one game at a time into the swamp second and 10 makes it very very difficult you to come out of this thing and gaining ground so to speak K G punt number seven for asz he may have it look at this run Trey Wilson ahead of the field in Free Flight goodbye touchdown become a football player and they love to run these uh jet sweeps and he just basically outruns the whole defensive of sford that's a reception is sixth of the game one sford yeah no question they've got to get the ball in his Lag Way his first career start going over 400 yeah he's got under 10 minutes to go critton to the outside and Veteran o line despite all the experiences hard and Chris fun to talk to Chris this week getting ready for this game Jim DK trying to stay away from the coverage team of his collegiate career this is B on first down play a little bit Isaac and Livingston two tight ends to the left side and F start on the offense all lineman moved except for the center he did just fine second down mague slips game here next week on ABC LW way his pass incomplete inside the 10yd line for Samford high end overend kick fair catch trailing by just two 14- 12 Midway through the third quarter Scalzo is in a quarterback as Quincy critton appears to Scalzo the handoff and I think Quincy is going to have a really fine year this year I like him I think he's the heck of a player personal foul roughing the passer important talking point this week you would think scill flushed chased throws on the Run throws kind of set the tempo for this game kind of set the mood for this game yeah just a unbelievable Arena the swamp and it was great to see it active tonight oh scalo right now is wants to see that clock run a little bit you know on both sides right Jim dek get to the outside transfer from Wisconsin into personal foul targeting with the crown of the helmet that 15yd penalty will be enforced from the end of the run as more experiences a college quarterback a transfer from Colorado State who has also played at Nevada he's going to watch Warner take these snaps weren't sure backfield true freshman running back ni snap they get it to Daniels BJ they're going to be hungry uh they've got a great defense they've got a a good good unit on offense the most by a Florida quarterback in the last 20 seasons and that was in his starting first career start third series of the game fumble in the end zone maybe the game goes a different direction but be a lot of talk this week here in Gainesville and Gator Nation about who should be taking the snaps at quarterback back next week right now it's Aiden Warner taking the snaps he just get little scraps and uh a heck of a play nice job Haven Connecticut the best pizza in the world you've told me 40 times the last week against Texas [Music] a Preston this feel of around this Florida team completely changes oh I don't think there's any question I think you come out from the media about the quarterback situation here in Florida this coming week as Chris Hatcher makes his way across the field to shake hands with Billy Napier couple of guys who have a lot of respect for each other both sons of coaches or former quarterbacks at the FCS level Florida first win in 329 days it's been a minute
