What South Carolina coach Shawn Elliott said after his team’s loss against Florida

Here’s what Shawn Elliott had to say after a hard-fought loss to Florida in Columbia on Saturday:

Shawn Elliott: “Kind of the story of our football team the last few weeks. We don’t start quick, but we finish strong.”

Elliott: “Offensively today, we were just dominated by a really good defense. They were ready to shut us down.” — David Cloninger (@DCTheState) November 14, 2015

Shawn Elliott: Like the last two weeks, ‘We didn’t have the juice to finish and win the football game.’

Elliott: Was a thought of bringing Mitch in during the first three quarters. “I didn’t want to go to an all-out passing game.” — David Cloninger (@DCTheState) November 14, 2015

Elliott also thought of bringing Nunez back in. Benched after the reverse-that-wasn’t.

Elliott: “We were overmatched. They were just making plays.” — David Cloninger (@DCTheState) November 14, 2015

Elliott: What’s the problem in first quarters? “When you don’t block, don’t run the right plays .. that tends to keep points off the board.”
