Florida came up short in Baton Rouge, unable to keep up with the torrid pace of the LSU offense’s scoring machine. Maybe it’s just the proximity to Texas, but the Tigers are more equipped to do an impression of a Big 12 team than the Gators are this year.

This review is based on Bill Connelly’s Five Factors of winning, sacks are counted as pass plays, and LSU’s two clock-killing drives at the ends of the halves are excluded.
