SEC Media Relations believes Florida’s college football playoffs disappeared into The Swamp fog on Saturday night. Gatters Cornerback Marco Wilson was sent off for a penalty with less than two minutes left in the innings, which allowed kicker Gate York to reach the 57-yard field goal with 23 seconds left. But this is not a punishment for any incompetent behavior. With 1:51 remaining in the third and 10th, LSU quarterback Max Johnson beat Cole Taylor for a four-yard lead, setting fourth and sixth. This would have put LSU’s offense in a game-determining situation, with the exception of Wilson, who, in a bizarre move, threw Taylor’s shoe on the field. Officers immediately hoisted the flag and gave the LSU the first down, which allowed the driver to proceed. Delayed game penalties like this can have dire consequences. In this case, it did not take long for the other shoe to drop. Five plays later, LSU Florida entered the 39-yard line. After Florida time was up, York arrived on the field and left the 57-yarder with 30 seconds left in the fog. Florida still had a chance to control the game or take the lead. The Gators offense was able to get down to the field goal range in three plays, but Evan McPherson’s effort was no better. The Gators will still head to the SEC Championship game next week to face top-seeded Alabama, but even if they win – and, frankly, they will be trailing – their playoff chances are huge. The pain of T-legs is like this.
