Official Game Thread, Week 1: Florida Gators 53, Charleston Southern Buccaneers 6 9/1/2018

Official game summary:
Feleipe Franks threw five touchdowns passes and the Florida Gators got the Dan Mullen era off to an exciting start with a 53-6 victory against the Charleston Southern Buccaneers on Saturday night. Franks joins Rex Grossman, Doug Johnson, and Chris Leak as the only Gators who have thrown five touchdown passes in a game.
Franks connected for touchdowns with Ohio State transfer Trevon Grimes, Mississippi transfer Van Jefferson (twice), Josh Hammond and Tyrie Cleveland -- including a very Tebow-esque jump pass to Cleveland.
The defense allowed 225 yards, notched three sacks and forced three turnovers. The only downside to the game was the suspension of seven players for the game opener, including senior defensive end Cece Jefferson (academics) and dynamic receiver Kadarius Toney (altercation on campus), defensive tackles Kyree Campbell and Luke Ancrum, cornerback Brian Edwards, running back Adarius Lemons and walk-on offensive lineman James Washington. Mullen also benched three starters for a series to open the game: Left tackle Jawaan Taylor, defensive end Jachai Polite and linebacker Vosean Joseph.
