Florida Gators fans were not having a good time on Saturday as they watched their football team drop to 1-2 on the season with a 13-point loss at home against Texas A&M.

“He’s got a mustache, you can’t see it now but he’s whipping his hand with his shirt,” the former college football player said. “I’m gonna make a bold prediction. I’m gonna say that guy’s in the friend zone.”
Joe Tessitore, who was doing the play-by-play for the game, praised Palmer for his “analysis.”
“I see it up close and personal in my other job,” Palmer added. “… I’m gonna say he’s a good listener.”
Texas A&M opened up a 20-point lead on Florida in the first half. Aggies quarterback Marcel Reed had a touchdown pass to Theo Melin Ohrstrom and then ran for one with 44 seconds remaining in the second quarter.

The Aggies won the game 33-20.
“I have no excuse,” Napier said when asked about him getting booed when as public service announcement played at the stadium. “I have no negative comment about that. Ultimately, we play a certain way in this arena, you’re going to get criticized. This is one of those places where there’s history and tradition and expectations.
“When you play ugly ball, and it doesn’t quite look like we all want it to, then, hey, it comes with the territory. I probably would have done the same thing.”
