If you have the skill and drive to succeed in school and in sports, well provide the opportunity. Brad florida stops it for the final time. Gary weve counted during the break. If l. S. U. Takes two knees here because florida cannot stop it, it will be four down with under 10 seconds to go. They should not hand the ball off again. Brad they do anyway. Guice dances in the hole. Spins his way down to the 20. Gary you could make an argument, if youre florida, to let them score. It would be an eightpoint game. At least you would have a chance be to tie the game. I mean, if im florida, i go, go score. Please. Run it one more time. Its our only chance. Brad etling looking to the sideline.
