Reminiscing is such a glorious and reliving thing to help refocus and give prospective from whence we came in our lives. In terms of my playing career, the game that I would love to reminisce is the SEC championship in my senior year at UF. Florida was 12-0 and Bama was 12-0 as well leading to a battle of undefeateds for the right to continue the perfect season and clinch a playoff spot. I was our defensive leader and captain as I led the team in TFLs, sacks, and pressures, highlighting a ferocious Gator defense. The game started out as a defensive stalemate as both teams felt out the other in order to find discernible weakness. We struck first as I managed to get a FF/FR and return it for a TD. The teams managed to end up at a 14-14 tie. However, in the second half, it was all us as we went on a 21-10 run, highlighted by me amassing 7 tackles, 3 TFLs, a FR, 3 PDs, and a pick in order to seal the game which to a free playoff berth and for me to earn MVP honors for the game!
