Saturday at Arkansas, Florida’s Luke Del Rio will make his first true road start as a college quarterback.
The Gators have played on the road against Tennessee and Vanderbilt, but Del Rio missed both those games. And while he was at Oregon State, Del Rio played as a backup in road games against USC and Stanford.
Del Rio is 5-0 as the Gators’ starter, with four home wins and a neutral-site victory over Georgia. This week should be his greatest challenge to date. If he can help deliver a win, Florida will be one victory away from heading back to Atlanta.
