It turned out to be a weird and disappointing bowl game for the Gators. Florida's scheduled opponent, CSM Gore Diggers, dropped their association with the NCBB, and due to an odd ruling, Nippon U gained CSM's bowl bid.
Loose play and their failure to recruit more Pestigors this season hurt the Gators in the 1st half. Tied 0-0 to start the 2nd half, a pitch invasion allowed Nippon to score quickly. Emmit showed his stuff on the final turn and sent the match to OT with a long TD run. In OT, Nippon patched together a miraculous push down field, which resulted in a loss for the Gators.”
