Florida vs. Texas game summary

Texas entered the game as big favorites over Florida, and it quickly became apparent why that was the case. The Longhorns scored on their second drive of the game off of a 29-yard pass by Quinn Ewers to Matthew Golden. They then capitalized on a Florida fumble to score on their next drive to take a 14-0 lead at the end of the first quarter.

The second quarter was even worse for Florida, as the Longhorns continued their scoring spree with six minutes left in the half. Then, with a little over a minute to go in the half, Texas scored again to take a massive 28-0 lead. However, it was not over then, as the Gators threw an interception two plays into their drive. The Longhorns were able to capitalize with another touchdown to end the half, bringing a 35-0 lead into halftime.

Things continued to go poorly for the Gators at the start of the third quarter, as the Longhorns scored a touchdown off a 34-yard pass from Quinn Ewers to Isaiah Bond. The Gators got their first points on the board off a field goal halfway through the quarter. They then broke through with a TD near the end of the quarter to cut the lead to 42-10.

Texas immediately widened the lead with a touchdown five seconds into the fourth quarter. Then, after the Longhorns fumbled on the next drive, Florida capitalized with its second TD of the game. However, that proved to be the last points scored in the game, and Texas won 49-17.
