Florida Gators take driver’s’ seat in SEC East

COLUMBIA, MO – The No. 11 Florida Gators are undefeated, bowl-eligible, and in the driver’s seat in the SEC after an impressive defensive performance in a 21-3 win on the road against Missouri. Jim McElwain is the first coach to win his first six games at the University of Florida since Galen Hall in 1984.

Beating the back-to-back SEC East Champions, coupled with a Georgia loss to Tennessee has given Florida a two game advantage over every team in the SEC and Florida is the master of their own destiny with the opportunity to bring a division title home to Gainesville for the first time since 2009.
