Show Notes
Jon Sumrall opens up about what he actually saw on tape from Florida's 66-21 win over FAU — starting with high praise for Aaron Philo's clean, efficient performance and ending with a candid take on a defense that was "too cautious and passive." He breaks down the tempo issues, the situational-awareness lapses, and why he still believes effort was never the problem. As he put it himself: "It wasn't all bad, but it damn sure wasn't all good either.”
