Gators take over SEC East lead

Some warts and blemishes certainly remain visible. But don’t all those yards and points and that margin of victory look nice?

And here’s what should really, really look nice if you’re a Gator: Florida is alone in first place in the SEC’s Eastern Division race after its 40-14 win over over Missouri on Saturday before 88, 825 in The Swamp.

UF’s win, coupled with Tennessee’s loss to Alabama, leaves the Gators (5-1 overall and 3-1 in the SEC) all alone at the top in the division standings heading into an open date.
