    The Florida Gators will look to get in the win column on Saturday when the Samford Bulldogs come to town.

    Billy Napier and this team are desperate for a win after losing their last seven games and they will look to do so behind freshman quarterback DJ Lagway.

    Lagway will step in for injured quarterback Graham Mertz who has a concussion and hasn’t practiced this week.
