Eight fumbles and eight sacks; that was the storyline from Florida’s 31-11 win over in-state rival Florida State in week 14. It wasn’t smooth sailing for either offense inside Doak Campbell Stadium, but the Gators simply made less mistakes on Saturday night.
FSU coughed up the football eight times in the contest, losing five of them to the Gators’ defense and special teams unit. Florida’s defense also earned eight sacks, setting their season high after recording seven vs LSU two weeks ago. The eight sacks also marked a UF vs FSU rivalry record.
The Gators finish the 2024 regular season with a 7-5 record including three consecutive wins.
