MIAMI — And just like that, she’s the most famous college student in America.
Freshman nutritional science student Peyton Blomquist appears to be embracing the attention she’s getting after she was spotted by ESPN cameras cheering on the Florida Gators at Saturday night’s game against ‘Ole Miss.
The 18-year-old University of Florida Zeta Tau Alpha sorority sister joked about the hyper viral footage which sent to the internet into a frenzy over the weekend, posting a pic of the viral moment alongside the caption “Work the cut” on Instagram.
The phrase is likely a reference to both the Gators’ rally cry this season –– and the very revealing outfit that caught the eye of the cameraman shooting their game in Gainesville on Saturday.
Gators head coach, Jon Sumrall, introduced the “Work the Cut” cry this season — calling for his players to imitate a boxer who opens up a cut and then relentlessly works on it until their opponent is ready for a knockout blow.
Talking of knockouts, blonde bombshell Blomquist could be seen smiling, dancing and checking her watch in the clip as the ESPN camera panned out from a closeup to show the crowd around her.
Blomquist was previously the salutatorian at her high school in Lake Mary, north of Orlando, before joining the University of Florida’s pre-med academic track, according to her LinkedIn.
She is also a member of the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority, according to her Instagram, and she could be seen in pics posted on social media with an orange ZTA patch on the white mini she wore to the game.
The blonde bombshell had plenty to cheer about in the stands as the Gators shot up the AP Top 25 ranking with a dominant 52-28 win over the previously No. 4-ranked Ole Miss Rebels.
Meanwhile, Blomquist’s social media profiles have exploded, reaching over 37,000 followers on Instagram and more than 32,000 on TikTok.
