We have a top-10 upset in Week 1, courtesy of the Florida Gators.
No. 7 Utah rolled into The Swamp with College Football Playoff aspirations, and they left Gainesville Sunday night with a 29-26 loss.
The Gators got a huge performance from quarterback Anthony Richardson, who accounted for 272 yards of total offense, and a trio of rushing touchdowns.
Utah quarterback Cam Rising got his offense inside the 10-yard line in the final seconds with a chance to win, or at least tie with a field goal, but those hopes were dashed by a diving interception in the end zone by Florida linebacker Amari Burney.
It’s a crushing blow for Utah, and a huge win that could vault the Gators into the Top 25.
