    Florida’s defense ranked 87th in points allowed and 84th in yards allowed amongst division one teams a season ago.

    With newly hired coordinator Austin Armstrong taking control of the defense and Corey Raymond now overseeing the entire secondary, the Gators will look to improve on a rough 2022 season.

    Gator Country provides five potential breakout players on the Florida’s defense in 2023.

    I had no idea that Moore was 6'3". He's also all over the place on the defense, last time I saw him play.

    Awesome list....Excited about the 2nd year players.

    These 5 might also be our best 5 defenders when it's all said and done. I think Marshall and McClellan are bonafide All Conference possibilities (perhaps not 1st team), and sophomore bumps by Moore and James are going to be critical.
