The Gators 41-38 loss to Texas A&M is the obvious reason for the drop in ranking in both polls. However, the silver lining for Florida fans is that this comes to early in the season, in a season where UF only plays SEC opponents. There is more than enough time for coach Dan Mullen and his staff to lick their wounds and climb back up the rankings. 

And the AP and Coaches Polls are just placeholders, things will really get interesting when the College Football Playoff poll comes out in a few weeks. Obviously, the Gators need to win football games to climb back up the rankings, but the way in which they win will matter too.

UF's defense must show significant improvement at all three levels or the belief that this could be a College Football Playoff team will fade more with every passing week.
