I enjoy a nice hot dog. I also enjoy when Gator players make a standout play and win ball games. That's why we're talking about who has made the most standout play for the Gators this season. With Florida once again controlling their own destiny in the SEC East, these guys will eventually have to make another great play for the Gators. Here are the nominees. Pick your play in the poll below.
Jon Bostic interception against Tennessee: Leading 7-3 in the second quarter, Florida's defense is sent back on the field following a punt catch fumble by Janoris Jenkins. In two plays, the Vols get inside the Gators' 3-yard line. On third and goal, Matt Simms' pass is intercepted by Jon Bostic, killing the Vols chances to lead at the half.
Omarius Hines fake punt against Tennessee: The Vols had just tied the game 10-10, when UF looked to punt on 4th and 6 from their own 39-yard line. Instead, Omarius Hines catches the snap and rumbles 36 yards into Tennessee territory. The Gators would score a touchdown and win the game 31-17.
Andre Debose returns one against LSU: Andre Debose showed the flashes of brilliance that were promised before his leg surgery last season. Against the Tigers, and losing 26-14, Debose takes a kickoff 88 yards for a touchdown.
Trey Burton goes for 51 against Georgia: Running out of the wildcat, Burton fakes a handoff, and runs through the right side of the line. He is never touched by a Bulldog until he dives into the end zone, 51 yards later. The score would give UF a 31-24 lead.
Will Hill picks off Aaron Murray: In overtime, Will Hill picks off Aaron Murray's deflected pass to end the Dogs' overtime series. He ends up being four yards short of winning the game, as he is shoved out of bounds on the return just before he dives for the goal line.
Chas Henry beats Georgia with a 37-yard field goal: With personal demons and Georgia defensive coaches haunting him, Chas Henry keeps his focus and buries a 37-yard overtime field goal to defeat the Bulldogs, 34-31.

Has to be Chas
He’s had his struggles kicking field goals, but that was the play that saved the season.

Much-needed win, pressure situation, after he'd missed the potential game-tying FG against Miss. State
Gotta vote for Chas sealing the win against Georgia.
I understand the love for Chas...
But MAN. A completely meaningless 85 yard interception return? It gets nothing but love from me. Will Hill completely dug his way out of my doghouse with that one play. (Though, to be fair, his performance for the rest of the game helped make that task a lot easier…)

well
the return was meaningless. whether he fell down as soon as he caught it or ran that whole distance didnt mean anything in the end. now if he had scored, he would have gotten my vote. but hill was just in the right place at the right time. more credit should towards jelani jenkins for tipping that pass.

votes chas
but an of the ones against uga would be good. that win was big and kept the sec east title hopes alive.
I voted Debose
He singlehandedly pulled the nails out of the coffin and put the Gators into a position to win against LSU. It’s not his fault that our coaching staff were the only humans in the universe that weren’t expecting the fake kick from LSU.
Much love to Chas though as he surely deserves whatever praise comes his way.
Henry...
Kept the Gators alive when they needed it most this season…
Second, Hill’s OT INT…he’s first IMHO if he scores…
Third, Debose KO TD…just because UF lost…
If the Gators had beaten LSU and Hill scores on that INT vs. UGAly it would have been tough to choose between them…
You may not like what I have to say...but somebody has to say it...
This one is tough.
When you dont routinely blow out your opponents, these plays tend to mean more.
I had it down to Hines, Hill, and Henry. We lost the game with Debose’, so its hard not to block that out.
Hill’s was incredible, but Henry’s was in the same game, and I imagine I will remember it for a long time…so it cancels out Hill’s.
That leaves Hines. I picked Hines, because at the time, an upset from Tennessee would of been more painful than losing to a hot Georgia team after we had already had 3 losses. Losing would of sucked, sure…but we already experienced a loss at that point, kinda became numb. If Georgia wins, im like fuck it we’re gonna just lose out. Tennessee wins, im depressed to the max and will be in bed the next few days.
I could see either one being the tops.
