Florida' still a very, very limited team, but if you allow the Gators to drastically tilt the field in their favor, and if you don't capitalize on the socring opportunities you get, they're still more than talented enough to thump you. This game was mostly even from an efficiency standpoint, with Vanderbilt doing better on standard downs and Florida bailing itself on passing downs (Treon Harris was allowed to pass in this game!), but Florida's big plays were infinitely bigger, and the game was played on the Gators' terms.
