GRR: Florida
Florida’s D1AA league comes down to this Saturday as St. Thomas takes on Florida.
This is definitely an old-vs-new matchup with Florida being a club program that has been in action, and successful for a very long time. St. Thomas, on the other hand, is a quite new school-supported program with a paid coach and athletic-department status.
Three teams are now unbeaten and atop the Florida D1AA Conference, as Florida, Florida State, and upstarts St. Thomas all won.
For the Florida Gators it was a close-run thing as South Florida scored early and added another to make it 10-0 before the Gators got going. USF still led just after halftime, 17-7 and around 50 minutes, after Isaiah Taylor's try, it was 22-7.
The final four in the Florida DIAA college competition is set after this weekend's first round of playoffs.
Six teams were in action this week, playing quarterfinals while 1st-place team Florida State had a bye.
Florida won convincingly over North Florida 62-7.
Where the pecking order stands in Florida's high school league could be a bit clearer after this weekend.
First off, let's look at the standings:
South Florida is clearly on top now in the Florida DIAA collegiate league after USF defeated North Florida 58-7.
