THEY CAME from ridicule in their home state to a pulsating 10-6 upset of the University of Alabama on a field where Bryant has never been beaten, where no Alabama team has lost in 16 games. They whipped the nation's third-ranked collegiate team and they whipped them with the weapon some in this state think Bryant invented defense.

Alabama came with a rush in the closing minutes to prevent the further insult of a shutout but Florida had moved ahead quickly on Bobby Lyle's 42-yard first quarter field coal and a 42- i -ST Alabama Florida First downs 11 10 Rufchlnr yardage 107 118 Iassiiie yardage 101 95 I'avsea 10-26 10-19 I'iiHsrg intercepted by 1 2 I'untH Fumble lost 3 1 Yards penalized 15 33.5 SCORING Alabama 0 0 0 66 Florida 3 0 0 710 I la I Lyle 42 Fla Kirk 41 run (Hall kick) Ala amith 1 run (pass 1 -fc4 A 2- yard touchdown burst by substitute halfback Dick Kirk of Ft.

after it had been predictable at the half that the bigger Gators might tire in the 91 degree heat, Florida was as fresh as Alabama. AFTER taking a 3-0 lead In the first three minutes on the second field goal of Lyle's brief career (his other, ironically was 47 yards and set the Gators on their way to a Gator Bowl win over Penn Florida domi IT WAS 10-0, unbelievably Florida, hen Tide quarterback Joe Namath led a late assault that provided the one Alabama touchdown. A two-point conversion try was snuffed out and Florida had Its 10-6 lead with two minutes to run out the clock. The Gators did just that for the victory that surely will send their stock soaring to a point close to the one enjoyed before being tied by Mississippi State and pressed by Richmond. Jimmy Hall kicked the extra point after Kirk's fourth quarter surprise sprint of 42 precious yards.

They were delivered to Deny Stadium and the Gators staged a performance that was so effective, many Alabama fans were leaving the stands and gone before the Tide made the scoreboard.

IT MIGHT have been worse, as coach Bryant said, had Florida not dropped "so many passes." Allen Trammell was in the clear at the Alabama 10 when quarterback Tom Shannon hit him with a pass. The score was 3-0 then but the anxious Trammell juggled the ball and it fell uncaught. Shannon played splendidly, mixing his plays well and passing accurately. He had at least three good throws dropped. And among the heroes in the line was game captain Jimmy Morgan, linebacker who worried Namath all afternoon.

Namath is unaccumstomed to this and Carlisle, who ran about as much although having to handle the quarterbacking duties, ripped out 62 yards. It was a rough game and Oklahoma personal fouls had the Sooners in trouble repeatedly. It led to a Texas touchdown in the first period.
