That's Arch Manning football, baby.

Never bet on a Manning against the Florida Gators. Simple as.

Manning’s playing for UT wearing Orange are now 0-6 vs Florida (0-5 as starters)

(Not to ruin the party, but I think Arch played in the 2024 game we lost)

Technically correct, though in that context he was the victory cigar.

Is Brady an honorary Gator then?

u/Careless_Wishter Oregon Ducks • Portland State Vikings 1h ago

Both Florida teams were ranked, too.

u/misteroatmeal Florida Gators • West Florida Argonauts 1h ago

Sounds like scripture to me.

Can we go ahead and fire whatever NFL GM ultimately takes him at #1?

u/Zyoj 2h ago

He got em back in. Then got em back out. Although I blame #74 more than Manning on that fumble. Buddy caused it when Manning spun into him then tried to pick up instead of jumping on it

Cam Newton special from the big man.

u/Zyoj 1h ago

Literally. Just stared at it then tried to half ass grab it. Throw your big ass on it man.

It always kills me because I see more energy on fumble recoveries from high school players when I work varsity games, doing it literally for free, than I do from some cfb players and professionals.

u/khube Texas A&M Aggies 1h ago

I thought the exact same thing. Jumping on that ball is priority number one in that moment

u/Zyoj 1h ago

Especially when he’s that big and the guy they recovered was so much smaller. Just jump at it and effectively box him out. Just strange.

That’s Joe Smith football, baby.
