College Football Coaches Getting Dragged During Opening Games

It was a quiet first half for Florida during the Gators’ season opener against Utah. Billy Napier’s squad managed to put just three points on the scoreboard before halftime, at which point the team trailed 17–3.

Things were similarly lackluster for Matt Rhule and Nebraska during their first half of the season, as they were held scoreless at halftime of their game against Minnesota, though their defense looked strong.

While the Cornhuskers took a lead early into the second half, courtesy of a miraculous trick-play touchdown that nearly went extremely wrong, neither Rhule nor Napier were able to escape criticism from college football fans on social media.

It’s only Week 1, yet fans wasted no time dragging the Power Five head coaches after just one half of football.
