Gators fire Mullen

Florida head coach Dan Mullen has been fired, the school announced on Sunday afternoon. Running backs coach/special teams coordinator Greg Knox will serve as the interim head coach for the Florida State game.

This news comes the day after the Gators lost 24-23 in overtime to Missouri to drop them to 5-6 overall and 2-6 in SEC play. This marks the first time since the SEC expanded to an eight-game conference schedule in 1992 that the Gators finished league play with only two wins.

Dating back to last season, the Gators are 2-9 in their last 11 games against Power Five competition.
