Florida’s comeback against Texas gave freshman quarterback Tramell Jones Jr. a breakthrough

Freshman signal-caller Tramell Jones Jr. delivered a poised performance in his debut start, guiding Florida to a 27-24 upset victory over seventh-ranked Texas.

Despite trailing by 14 points early, Jones connected on 22 of 35 attempts for 155 yards and two scores to Lacota Dippre, while Jadan Baugh added an 11-yard rushing touchdown to help secure the win. Florida dominated the clock, maintaining possession for over 38 minutes and converting eight third-down opportunities to stifle the opposition.

The Gators' defense sealed the result late in the fourth quarter when they forced a fumble from Arch Manning, effectively ending the Longhorns' final comeback attempt. This victory marks a significant milestone for the young quarterback, who stepped in for the injured Aaron Philo to lead his team in a hostile road environment.
