Peach Bowl: Gators rout Michigan 41-15 to cap comeback year

Lamical Perine had a 5-yard scoring catch and 53-yard touchdown run to lead No. 10 Florida's strong rushing attack Saturday, helping the Gators cap their comeback season with a 41-15 rout of No. 8 Michigan in the Peach Bowl.

After finishing 4-7 in 2017, Florida enjoyed a dramatic turnaround in Dan Mullen's debut season as coach.

"To know where we were last season to where we are now is something special," Mullen said. "To finish as a 10-win season, one of the top 10 teams in the country, that's pretty special."

Florida (10-3) closed the season with four straight wins.
