BATON ROUGE, La. — There’s a sign near the visiting locker room in Tiger Stadium that the team has to walk past when they enter and leave the field that reads, “Death Valley, where opponents dreams go to die.” The Florida Gators’ dreams died on Saturday night as the defense gave up a program-worst 701 yards of offense in a 52-35 loss to the LSU Tigers.

The Gators’ offense put up a fight for three quarters but struggled on third down and, ultimately, couldn’t keep up with an explosive LSU offense that has the likely Heisman Trophy winner this season in quarterback Jayden Daniels.

“Ultimately, you’ve got a challenge on your hands relative to matching up. You know, you’re going to deny the ball, you’re going to play man or match coverage, and then all of a sudden you’ve got your back to the guy and he takes off running, right? Or, you can choose to die a slow death and play zone, play coverage, or try to keep him in the pocket. And we did a mixture of both all night,” Billy Napier said after the game.

“I do think the game comes down to matchups, and sometimes you can help your players and sometimes the players just gotta go play, right? So I think there’s a little bit of both, right? The quarterback is exceptional, and I think his legs ultimately are the difference in the game. I mean, he’s a really good passer, they have great skill [players], they have a good balance of run game that complements his legs. But ultimately, I mean, I think we all can agree that the difference in the game was his ability to take off running.”
