The "Gator flop" occurred during a 1971 NCAA football game between the Florida Gators and Miami Hurricanes. In the final minutes of the game, Gator John Reaves needed to throw just another 14 yards to break the all-time NCAA career passing record. The members of the Gators' defense dropped to the turf so that the Hurricanes could gain possession and take the ball to the other end of the field. After the Hurricanes scored a touchdown, the Gators recovered the ball and Reaves threw a pass to break the record.

@squarecracker This is big boy football. I love what they did. They wanted to get the record for the QB. Miami wouldn't try to throw the ball. So UF did what they did. This isn't pop warner.
