For players and coaches, it was staggering, exhilarating and ultimately humbling.The journey also may provide some valuable lessons as Florida heads into Year 2 of McElwains tenure.This team has to understand that what they did a year ago was kind of discover, kind of discovered a little bit maybe what was possible, McElwain said. And yet (we) learned some lessons along the way about understanding, never being satisfied. And hopefully even all the older players understand that they never made it. In other words, you cant go into coast (mode).Instead, the Gators hope to learn how to finish.After unexpectedly clinching the Southeastern Conferences Eastern Division last November, Florida lost its final three games. McElwains team was exposed and overmatched against rival Florida State, against Alabama in the league title game and against Michigan in the Citrus Bowl. The Gators managed just two offensive touchdowns in those losses and were outscored 97-24.Quarterback play was among the main issues, with Treon Harris having more turnovers than touchdowns in those games and getting sacked 13 times. Harris started the final eight games after Will Grier was suspended for one year for violating the NCAAs policy on performance-enhancing drugs.Harris and Grier have since transferred, leaving Florida with a college journeyman, a graduate transfer and two freshmen at quarterback.Luke Del Rio, the son of Oakland Raiders coach Jack Del Rio, is the front-runner to win the starting job despite throwing just 18 somewhat meaningful passes at Alabama (2013), Oregon State (2014) and Florida (2015).Whether its Del Rio, former Purdue starter Austin Appleby, Feleipe Franks or fellow freshman Kyle Trask under center, McElwain expects the offense to be dramatically better this fall.ddddddddddddThe Gators ranked 100th in the nation in scoring and 112th in yards last season.Our quarterback room, their grasping of the things we are trying to accomplish and their knowledge will allow us to do maybe some different things that maybe we didnt do a year ago, offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier said.Here are some other things to know about Florida heading into the season:---DEFENSE REIGNS: Floridas defense was among the best in the SEC last season, and the Gators expect the same this year despite having to replace six starters. Jalen Tabor appears to be the programs next star cornerback while linebacker Jarrad Davis and defensive linemen CeCe Jefferson and Caleb Brantley also could make big leaps.TROUBLED RECEIVERS: Antonio Callaway, Tyrie Cleveland and Rick Wells could be suspended to start the season because of legal issues. Callaway has been accused of sexual assault, a case being handled by the university. Cleveland and Wells, both freshmen, are facing felony charges for allegedly firing BB guns into a residential hall last month.KEY GAMES: The Gators essentially play five games -- at Tennessee, against LSU, against Georgia, at Arkansas and at Florida State -- that will determine their season.PREDICTION: With one of the weakest non-conference schedules in recent history -- Florida hosts UMass, North Texas and Presbyterian, teams that combined for six wins in 2015 -- the Gators should be a lock to win nine games. And since Georgia, Missouri and South Carolina have new coaches, they also should be in the hunt in the SEC East.SEASON OPENER: Sept. 3 against UMass. It will be the teams first meeting.---AP college football website: collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
