So less than 24 hours after his team’s embarrassing loss at Texas two weekends ago, Florida freshman quarterback DJ Lagway went to his coach to declare — not discuss or deliberate — his status for the next game. “He came in the building Sunday (and) said, ‘I’m playing this week,’” Billy Napier recalled.

At the end of the third quarter at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium in Gainesville, of course, the PA system plays the Tom Petty hit song, "Won't Back Down." Even before the game kicked off, Napier had his team thinking about that moment.

Florida’s 27-16 upset against No. 21 LSU on Saturday marked the third AP Top 25 victory of the Billy Napier era and his second over a rival. He’s now won at least one ranked game in all three years of his tenure.

That set off the message board rumor mill that the word "changes" means the end of Napier as both head coach and play-caller for the Florida Gators in 2025. It could happen. But I would also respond with a quote from the esteemed Spanish philosopher George Santayana, "those that ignore history are doomed to repeat it."

Florida struck first in the game with a touchdown pass from quarterback DJ Lagway to wide receiver Elijhah Badger to make it 7-0 before LSU responded with a touchdown of its own. It’s clear the return of Lagway, who was recovering from a hamstring injury, has ignited a new kind of spark in Florida.
