Florida dominates Kentucky in The Swamp

Saturday night in The Swamp was not an enjoyable experience for the Kentucky Wildcats.

Freshman running back Jaden Baugh scored 5 touchdowns, which tied a record held by Tim Tebow, to lead the Gators (4-3) to a 48-20 victory over the Cats (3-4). Baugh finished with 22 carries for 109 yards.

Another freshman, five-star quarterback DJ Lagway took over for Graham Mertz, who suffered a season-ending injury last week. Lagway completed 7-of-14 passes for 259 yards.
