  • Lagway finished the 26-7 defeat at Miami, going 12 of 23 for 61 yards as Florida fell to 1-3.
  • Florida is on a bye this week before hosting No. 10 Texas on Oct. 4, with multiple reports indicating optimism about his availability.
  • Through four games, Lagway has completed 67.5% of his passes for 690 yards with five touchdowns and six interceptions, while the offense has produced nine total touchdowns.
