The defense finally has something to hang its hat on.
Zac Brindise, getting his first action of the day, was picked off trying to fit a pass in to Weslye Saunders. It was a bad idea: Quin Smith tipped it, and probably should’ve picked it off, then Stephon Gilmore picked it out of the air and ran it a few yards back.
The most interesting thing may be what happened next: Connor Shaw returned at quarterback. Did Steve Spurrier want Shaw to operate with a short field, or was it just his turn?
In any event, the Shaw-led offense couldn’t get a first down, and Spencer Lanning booted a 39-yard field goal.
