Florida’s momentum from a three-game SEC winning streak was halted on
Saturday with a double-digit loss to Georgia, a team the Gators (22-7,
10-4 SEC) beat by 22 at home and which is currently 11th in the
conference. It was Florida’s first game without Will Yeguete, who had
surgery for a broken foot Friday and is out for the year.
But the
outcome was enough to drop Florida four spots in the Associated Press
poll and two spots in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches poll. UF now ranks 16th
by AP voters and 13th by the coaches.
