Four weeks of hype buried in one afternoon: RIP Baugh's Heisman, Sumrall's honeymoon, and Florida's ceiling.
The emotional rollercoaster
Florida fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Florida arrived at 4-2 and left it at 4-2 with the shine stripped off, losing 19-38 to South Carolina at home and taking the fanbase from grumbling to funeral planning. The turning point wasn't a snap, it was the audit: fans recounting the start and deciding the hype came from beating "2 lower level teams, the USF tigers, and a drunk hungover Ole Miss with a bad run D." One mourner filed three obituaries at once, including the "Sumrall honeymoon phase" and Baugh's Heisman talk. Misery climbed from 82 to 97. September, it turns out, was the con.
What fans said
