In Florida's 52-3 victory over the Campbell Camels, the offense continued to hum like a well-oiled machine, scoring in a multitude of ways, and at the center of that was Vernell Brown III. VB3's name was continuously mentioned during the broadcast for his exceptional performance.
The third-generation Gator put on his best showing in the uniform, thus earning him Gators Wire offensive player of the game
for Week 2.The Gator wide receiver put on a stellar special-teams performance, showing how he can create instant offense with the ball in his hands. Brown III recorded two punt return touchdowns: the first one for 64 yards and the second, which came right after the first, for 70 yards, bringing his total return yards to 173.
VB3 wasn't just a specialist;
he was also the second-most productive receiver statistically, contributing 43 receiving yards and adding another touchdown to his already impressive resume.
Brown III's 216 all-purpose yards were more than Campbell's entire offense, which only produced 210 yards of offense.
What makes his offensive outburst even more impressive is that he didn't find the end zone at all during his freshman season, but was able to do so three times this game, as well as one during Week 1.
The Florida wide receiver has been special this season and has put the nation on notice not to kick the ball to him.
