With Florida A&M, Bethune-Cookman and Stetson, the Sunshine State’s record on Saturday fell to 0-8 — the worst one-day showing in state history by FBS and FCS teams. Florida A&M lost to Prairie View 31-12, Bethune-Cookman fell 25-23 to Southern in five overtimes and previously winless Marist beat Stetson 40-31.

The first quarter of the college football season suggested Florida might be in for a long slog, with growing pressure on third-year coach Billy Napier after ugly home losses to Miami and Texas A&M. Surely, it was a situation that needed some resolution, if only to save everyone involved from agony.

If there were any lingering doubts, Michigan's 20-15 loss to No. 8 Indiana in Week 11 provided irrefutable evidence that Sherrone Moore is not the man for Michigan. His head-scratching and, frankly, unforgivable mistakes were the sole reason the Wolverines were not able to pull off the upset.
