The Florida Gators shuffled into the visitor's locker room at Hard Rock Stadium, mostly quiet, some with their heads bowed. Running back Jadan Baugh, who scored Florida's only touchdown, paused before entering the locker room and shook his head, still ab sorbing the sting of Saturday's 26-7 loss to No. 4 Miami - a game in which the Gators struggled offensively and failed to capitalize on an uneven offensive performance by the Hurricanes. The scene seemed to encapsulate what has been a dreadful season for Florida, which is off to its worst start (1-3) in 39 years despite a talented roster that many picked to be a formidable competitor this season in the Southeastern Conference. The Gators have hardly looked the part in the first four games of the season, which have featured a rout of Long Island University, a collapse against South Florida in a game they were heavily favored, and road losses to No. 3 LSU and Miami. T "We've got work to do," said embattled Florida coach Billy Napier, whose record with th e Gators fell to 20-22.Florida's only scoring drive came on the first possession of the third quarter, when quarterback D.J. Lagway extended the drive with a fourth-down run and Baugh capped it off with a 2-yard rushing touchdown. Lagway, Florida' s sophomore quarterback who was 6-1 as a starter in 2024, was 12 of 23 for only 61 yards and no touchdown passes. "It's very frustrating," Lagway said. "We've got to clean a lot of things up. That's nowhere near the brand of football wen want to play." L agway added that improvement starts with him. He admitted Saturday wasn't his best performance, noting that he just took what the defense gave him and only managed the game. "I'm going to demand greatness from everybody," Lagway said. "We're done with th e playing around stuff. It's time to get serious. And it starts with me. I've got to set the tempo. I set the tone - in practice, in meetings, everywhere. So I know for a fact that it's going to change because it starts with me." - AP College Football

Florida quarterback DJ Lagway has gone from appearing rusty to looking lost. It's not what anyone envisioned even though he missed nearly nine months dealing with various injuries. He is dancing in the pocket, leading to off-balance throws that end up sa iling over receivers or spinning into the ground. He is failing to get through his progressions, allowing defenders to lock onto his first read. He is lacking situational awareness - when to audible, when to run and when to slide - and showing little fee l for the game. He is still coach Billy Napier's guy, and that is unlikely to change. Napier is sticking with his turnover-prone starter despite a five-interception performance in a 20-10 loss at No. 3 LSU on Saturday night."DJ's our quarterback," said Napier, now 20-21 in four seasons at Florida. "He's one of the best quarterbacks in the country. He made some good decisions, but he also made some bad decisions." Lots of them. The sophomore threw an interception in every quarter in Death Valley, including back-to-back picks on Florida's final two drives while trailing by 10. The fourth one came with the Gators in field-goal range and prompted a lengthy sideline discussion with Napier. "I'm just excited to get back to work," said Lagway, who was making his first road start in Southeastern Conference play. "I got to get this taste out of my mouth. I played horrible football, and I got to do better." Lagway couldn't recall ever turning over the ball five times in a game before Saturday. Not in hig h school. Not in peewee football. Not in his backyard. "I've never had a performance like that in my life, so it's kind of hard to process it," he said. "But at the end of the day, it's all about how you bounce back and how you respond. And I'm planning on doing so." The Gators, who have now lost consecutive games in each of Napier's four seasons, play at rival and fourth-ranked Miami (3-0) on Saturday night. Florida is winless in eight road games against ranked teams during Napier's tenure. - AP Colleg e Football

DJ Lagway threw three touchdown passes, Jadan Baugh ran for 104 yards and a score, and No. 15 Florida opened the season with a 55-0 drubbing of Long Island on Saturday night. The Gators ended their first eight drives with either a field-goal attempt or a n extra point. More than anything, though, facing an overmatched team from the Football Championship Subdivision provided coach Billy Napier with a chance to get Lagway live repetitions for the first time since a December bowl game.Lagway missed m onths of work following core-muscle surgery, a sore throwing shoulder and, most recently, a strained left calf. He was cleared to fully practice last week and looked a little rusty against the Sharks. He was sacked on Florida's first play and threw two e rrant passes early. But he settled down and showed plenty of promise in the rout. The sophomore completed 15 of 18 passes for 120 yards, with TD passes to Eugene Wilson III, Hayden Hansen and J. Michael Sturdivant. Lagway's night ended at halftime, with the Gators leading 38-0. The score would have been more lopsided, but Trey Smack missed two field goals and Florida failed to convert four third downs. Long Island never came close to scoring. The Sharks managed two first downs and finished with more pen alty yards (100) than total yards (86). - Florida/AP College Football
