Four Florida Gators were named to the Pro Football Focus Week 3 SEC Team of the Week despite a loss to Texas A&M.
stands alone as a representative of the Gators' defense after their individual performances last Saturday against Texas A&M.against Miami, where he graded out at 0.0 in pass blocking. In addition to Waites, Slaughter has continued to be one of the best centers in the SEC after another positive performance in the middle of this endlessly rotating offensive line.
PFF's decision to name multiple Gators on the SEC team of the week might come as a little bit of a surprise given the instant reaction to the Gators' 33-20 loss to the Aggies in the college football world. Many believe that it was a rather poor performance from the Gators in their SEC opener, and it is hard to argue with that thought. At the end of the first half, they were down 20-0.
However, it seems the individual performances of these four outshined the largely disappointing one from the team as a unit.In addition to being named to the team of the week, Jason Marshall Jr. also was graded as PFF’s best cornerback in Week 3 in the SEC. Against Texas A&M, Marshall Jr. finished with an overall grade of 80.7.
Marshall will be hoping to continue to put up performances like this as he is in his final year of eligibility with the Gators and will want to show NFL teams that he has what it takes to compete at the next level.
