Brent Venables reveals why more players were involved against Florida
The Oklahoma Sooners looked more efficient on offense last weekend against the Florida Gators than they had all season long. The Sooners beat the Gators on the road, 23-7, and gained over 350 yards of offense. Tight ends coach Jason Witten called the game after being promoted to interim offensive coordinator following Ben Arbuckle's firing . He emphasized getting more players involved. Against Florida, eight players caught at least one pass, with five catching at least three. Two of those were Jacob Jordan and Parker Livingstone, who had played sparingly this season. Jordan especially shined, catching four passes for 36 yards. All four passes were on third down and went for first downs. Head coach Brent Venables said the increased involvement for players like Jordan and Livingstone was intentional. "I think they've been good practice players," Venables said. "I think they've shown a body of work over the last several months that Coach Witten recognized and made it a point to make sure that you get players involved. I think the earlier that you can do that, it just creates more synergy, more emotion, more stick-to-itiveness, more belief, more strain, more finish. The more guys that feel like they're involved."

Santa Fe football, Earnest Graham, emphatically end playoff drought vs Dunnellon
DUNNELLON — Two years ago, a playoff win seemed like the impossible dream for Santa Fe football . Now it's very much a reality. And in a beatdown fashion. The No. 4 seeded Raiders (9-2) won their first playoff game in a decade on Friday, Nov. 13, 35-7 over fifth-seeded Dunnellon (9-2) at Ned Love Field in the Class 3A-Region 2 quarterfinals. It’s the first postseason victory for coach Earnest Graham , the Florida football legend, who took over the Raider job two years ago despite qualms from many. "Really proud of the way our guys are really connecting to what we're trying to do as a program," Graham said. "We're really hard on them every week, and they do it. It's the mark of a great program and good culture for us to still be in it." Santa Fe, in the process, gained revenge for a 22-17 loss on Oct. 15 which gave the Tigers the district and allowed this game to be in Marion County. The entire Raiders team and coaches dealt with the flu the first time the two teams played, so being healthier helped, but Santa Fe returned to its bread and butter of physical football.
