Florida quarterback Graham Mertz appears to be enjoying life on and off the field as he recently went public with his girlfriend Alexis Loomans.
The 21-year-old, who was named Miss Wisconsin in May, was seen at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium this season to cheer on her boyfriend.
And Loomans was in attendance for Florida’s upset of No. 11 Tennessee on Saturday, wearing a blue jacket with Mertz’s name and jersey number (15).
Before the game, she shared a sweet photo of the two hugging with the caption, “Game day!”

The two kissed after Mertz and Florida beat McNeese State at home on Sept. 9
Mertz and Florida won their second straight game as the former Wisconsin quarterback threw for 166 yards and a touchdown.
The 22-year-old spent four years as a Badger before moving to Gainesville.
The couple was previously seen kissing after Florida’s 49-7 win over McNeese State on September 9th.
In this game, Mertz threw for 149 yards and a touchdown, so his team won comfortably.
Loomans made her and Mertz’s relationship public last month when she posted pictures and videos of the couple from the beach.
But it seems that they have been together for much longer.
Loomans, who was crowned Miss Wisconsin in May, has over 20,000 followers on Instagram
Mertz has been commenting on Loomans’ Instagram posts since at least December.
It’s likely the couple met in Wisconsin, as Loomans describes herself on Instagram as a Class of 2023 graduate.
The model has over 20,000 Instagram followers – a number that will only increase if Mertz and Florida continue to win.
