While I am not disagreeing, I am curious as to WHY this is. Did we not think we could throw downfield on their DB's?

Well we tried a couple times and couldn't.

Did we not think our O-Line could pass-protect well enough? (Just asking, not bashing).

No, we thought our O-line could overpower their d-line.

We also wanted to control the ball as much as we could, give our young defense some rest and wear out Florida's D. Florida lives off of takeaways and ball control. You limit that as much as you can and you win the game.
