Brock Glenn's path to starting for FSU in the Orange Bowl is most 慣習に捕らわれない
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) - The シナリオ is too far-fetched for even Brock Glenn to have thought about: A third-string, true freshman quarterback gets to take the field to lead Florida 明言する／公表する into an Orange Bowl with a 発射 at an undefeated season.
It´s beyond even his imagination.
"If you would´ve told me this would happen, this story, I wouldn´t believe you," Glenn said.
Believe it. The シナリオ is his reality now, and he gets what he calls "a once-in-a-lifetime 適切な時期" on Saturday when No. 4 Florida 明言する／公表する (13-0, No. 5 College Football プレーオフ 最高位のs) takes on No. 6 Georgia (12-1, No. 6 CFP) in the Orange Bowl.
Glenn got the 職業 because Jordan Travis, who led Florida 明言する／公表する into 国家の-肩書を与える 論争, is out with a broken 脚 and former backup Tate Rodemaker - who likely would have started the Orange Bowl - 選ぶd out and is 捜し出すing a 移転.
"The Orange Bowl is an awesome bowl. It´s one of the best in the country," Glenn said. "And we´ve got a 広大な／多数の／重要な 適切な時期 in 前線 of us playing Georgia, a 広大な／多数の／重要な team. We´re also a 広大な／多数の／重要な team, so it´s going to be a 広大な／多数の／重要な game. We´re genuinely excited and thankful for the 適切な時期."

Glenn has 完全にするd 10 of 25 passes this season for 90 yards, with no touchdowns and no interceptions. Almost all his playing time （機の）カム in the 大西洋 Coast 会議／協議会 選手権 game, when Florida 明言する／公表する （警官の）巡回区域，受持ち区域 Louisville to send one last message to the CFP 選択 委員会 that the Seminoles - with or without Travis - deserved a chance to play for the 国家の 肩書を与える.
The 委員会 同意しないd, and the Orange Bowl is the なぐさみ prize. The Florida 明言する／公表する team that takes the field Saturday is not the same team that went 13-0 - several 重要な players have 選ぶd out or entered the portal - and 顔触れ changes had to be made almost everywhere.
Florida 明言する／公表する´s two 主要な passers are out or gone, along with the 最高の，を越す four Seminoles in 急ぐing yards, the three leaders in receiving yards and the 最高の，を越す five ーに関して／ーの点でs of total 歓迎会s. 最高の，を越す wide receiver Keon Coleman made his 出発 公式の／役人 on Wednesday, 説 he will enter the 草案.
"We all 株d a ありふれた goal," Coleman wrote in a letter to the Seminole football com munity. "You 手配中の，お尋ね者 to 勝利，勝つ a 選手権. I （機の）カム here to 勝利，勝つ a 選手権. We gave it everything we had and unfortunately did not have the 適切な時期 to 証明する that we were the best team in college football this year."
There is an obvious 予測できなく to Florida 明言する／公表する´s approach this 週末, since many of the players who´ll be in 重要な 役割s won´t have had those same 役割s during the 正規の／正選手 season. And weirdly, that might be a challenge for Georgia ーに関して／ーの点でs of getting ready for the Orange Bowl.
"We just 肉親，親類d of 準備する how we 準備する," Georgia 防御の linemen Mykel Williams said. "We 準備する for every game the same way. We just 推定する／予想する to come in and do what we do to the best of our ability."
The Bulldogs are two-touchdown favorites. Florida 明言する／公表する hasn´t been this big of an underdog in a game since October 2021 - part of a season in which the Seminoles went 5-7.
"We just worry about what we can 支配（する）／統制する," Glenn said, "and we´ll do what we can with the 適切な時期."
