Dan Mullen opens his first spring practice as Florida’s coach Friday, and an absolute imperative this spring is to begin to get the Gators’ offense fixed.
Much of the attention has been revving up a passing attack that hasn’t averaged more than 215.8 yards per game in any season this decade, but the Gators’ rushing attack hasn’t been that productive, either. The high-water mark for Florida this decade is the 187.7-yards-per-game averages in 2012 and ’14. Florida, South Carolina and Vanderbilt are the only SEC teams that have failed to average 200 rushing yards in a season at least once this decade.
