    I've been waiting for this today. NINETY-THREE (93) snaps the defense was on the field . . . and they still played strong!

    It was an odd game for snap counts in Florida vs LSU as the Tigers out snapped Florida 93-45 in the contest and dominated the time of possession by over 23 minutes.

    Florida worked 17 offensive players into the game and 25 defensive players, a tighter rotation than we are used to seeing.

    Those dbs played every snap as there is noone left to rotate in. They really hung tough.

    Burning a lot of redshirts this year and i LOVE it

    Sad that Kelby probably gone. Maybe he’s low key getting a redshirt year which wouldn’t be a bad thing

    Yep... The top two 2023 defensive recruits not playing this year. Although, Jackson is hurt. He played the first two games. He can play two more and redshirt. Hopefully he can get back for FSU and/or the Bowl game.

    Kelby has already played 5 or 6 games, so no redshirt. He's been passed by the true FR Robinson and Boireau. Even Taylor, late JUCO recruit, is playing over him. We'll see, but not looking great for the future.

    Only 6 defensive backs played and 4 played all 93. The numbers add up to five DBs being on the field for every play.

    With so many third and long situations, don't we have defensive packages that includes six DBs? Even with a lack of DB depth, neither McClain or Smith played a defensive snap.

    Cornerback

    Dijon Johnson: 93
    Trikweze Bridges: 93
    Aaron Gates: 47
    Sharif Denson: 46

    Safety

    Jordan Castell: 93
    Bryce Thornton: 93

    It is interesting as to why those two didn't even get a single snap

    Burning red shirts means we're still really young and it's nice to have young talent playing because that means we have them for a while

    This game is proof that our strength and conditioning program is getting the job done.

    I thought I read (likely a poster on this site so may not be accurate lol) that he had participated in 6 games already. If accurate, the redshirt is toast. Like 8 snaps here and 5 snaps there kind of playing time.

    just did my own research. He’s played in 6 games..

    Great playing time experience for young players. That will pay off.

    Coaches saw what I saw of cormani last week....lots to work on
    Little surprised Grimsley and Greg Smith got no snaps.
    Crazy how Douglas dropped off the map

    Grimdley getting no run. Youd think he has some games go burn but must not be ready.

    Watched him pregame....he looks the part, but yeah he just may not be game ready. Dijon took a while too but has really stepped up

    Glad to see the tight CB rotation. McClain is still not ready for Prime Time despite the initial int.

    Only the best should play, we are doing better with less rotation for DBs.

    No rotation at all. Both corners played every snap, and two guys shared the star position.

    I think about half of UF's sacks were coverage sacks. Nussmeier had time to throw but didn't find any open receivers. That's with UF playing two backup CBs and one S who wasn't a starter at the beginning of the season. Bridges has been playing S instead of CB most of this year too. To me, the defensive backfield and LB play on passing downs was very, very impressive. The DL's play was great too. They kept grinding and wouldn't give up. That applies to the whole UF team, too.

    Absolutely. And for those who suggested our strength and conditioning program was subpar, the LSU game proves otherwise, quite convincingly. Poorly conditioned players could not have done what they did, given the TOP and play differential.
