Unbeaten Gators continue to 'restore the order' with convincing win against Ole Miss

GAINESVILLE — The call from coach Jim McElwain to his players this season has been, "restore the order."

Third-ranked Ole Miss arrived in Gainesville ready to remind the Florida Gators of their new position in the middle the SEC.

By the end of Saturday night, though, it seemed like old times in the Swamp for the once-mighty Gators and their fans.

A rowdy crowd reached a fever pitch while watching Florida's offense set the tone early and the defense surge during a 38-10 beat-down of the Rebels.

Picked to finished fifth in the SEC East in the preseason, the Gators (5-0, 3-0 SEC) now sit atop the division standings, are one of three SEC unbeatens — along with LSU and Texas A&M — and rose Sunday to No.
