The No. 1 Florida Gators are another game closer towards their dream perfect season. The unranked Georgia Bulldogs hardly put up a fight in their 41-17 loss in Jacksonville. The Gators got up to an early 14-0 lead in the first quarter thanks to a pair of Riley Cooper touchdowns and from there it was smooth sailing. The Gators are now 8-0 on the season and still No. 1 in the BCS polls.
When of the best moments of the game came in the second quarter when Tim Tebow scrambled for a 23-yard touchdown run. It wasn't just any ordinary run though, this was his 50th career rushing touchdown. It moved him into first all-time on the SEC rushing touchdown list - passing former UGA Hall of Famer Herschel Walker. Tebow added another rushing touchdown to that list in the 3rd quarter on a 5-yard run.
What impressed me the most was the Gators ability to dominate on both sides of the ball for the first time in many games. The Gators put up 374 yards of total offense and score 28 points. The defense was able to get three sacks and snag 4 interceptions, one of which Spikes took back for a touchdown. The Gator linebackers in general had huge days. In addition to Spikes, Stamper and A.J. Jones (2) both had interceptions. Jones also added one sack and two tackles for a loss.
Before I get to the highlight video, I also want to give props to the Gator special teams... and not just the coverage units. Chaz Henry punted a hell of a game and I was totally impressed when Sturgis nailed a 56-yard field goal. The guy misses 20 yarders, but nailed 44 and 56 yard field goals against Georgia.
And now for the highlights. Find out what you missed!
