“First of all, I want to give credit where credit is due. Florida did a good job today, no doubt. We really played better than the score indicates, I think. I don’t think there is as much difference in the two teams as the score. We did a lot of shooting ourselves in the foot and did not take advantage of the opportunities that we needed to.”
“We had some red-zone opportunities early on, and we didn’t score touchdowns and we missed field goals, so that wasn’t good. We moved the ball pretty darn well and ended up with turnovers, and you can’t have that and expect to win a ballgame.”
“I told the guys to show class in this defeat and to get prepared to go 8-2. We are 7-2 right now, and we’ve got to prepare to win the next one. We can’t let this loss hurt us the next time we play football. The bottom line is we played and got whipped. We need to correct the mistakes that are correctable and start getting ready for Kentucky.”
GO 'cats !!

Junior Quarterback Matthew Stafford:
It just didn’t happen for us today. The best way to get over this is get back to practice and get a chance to play again. But things didn’t go our way in this one and you have to take your hat off to
them.
Junior cornerback Asher Allen:
We didn’t get the big turnover we needed. I think there were a lot of plays we could have made and didn’t. They were able to put points up and whenever that happens, it turns into a possession game and we lost that battle tonight. We have a big-time away game coming up so we have to get ready for practice on Monday.
Redshirt sophomore tailback Knowshon Moreno:
“Our turnovers, execution and some other things didn’t go our way. They just played better than us today. We need to look at film, see what mistakes we made and get better. Coach (mark richt) said we kept fighting until the end tonight and that we still have some games to play.”
Senior middle linebacker Dannell Ellerbe
“Losing hurts. Even if we lost by one point, it still hurts. We now need to focus on winning out. We have learned that we can’t take anything for granted and we have to keep working hard every day. After a game like this, we still have to fight. We will put this one behind us. We can’t harp on it.”
