Florida head coach Jon Sumrall has taken responsibility for the team's "embarrassing" performance against Missouri. The Gators suffered a 45-17 loss to the No. 25 Tigers on Saturday, marking the first time Sumrall has coached Florida after a successful tenure at Tulane. Sumrall reflected on the loss during the post-game interview, stating that it was an embarrassing performance in every phase, starting with the coaching and him.
He told his players in the locker room to be accountable and own their actions, emphasizing that they must play a lot better. Missouri controlled the momentum for most of the game, leading 42-17 after the last three quarters. Despite missing Philo's usual impact, the Gators' receiving corps had a bright spot with Dallas Wilson and TJ Abrams.
The No. 8 Gators will look to bounce back in their next home game against South Carolina on October 10.
