Florida Overcomes Ole Miss in Dominant Swamp Showdown

In a high‑stakes clash at the Swamp, Florida (No. 21) outperformed top‑five Ole Miss (No. 4) to secure a decisive win. The Gators opened the scoring with a rushing touchdown by Jadan Baugh, followed by a field goal, and built a 17‑6 halftime lead. Florida’s ground attack was relentless, amassing 302 rushing yards and featuring two Gator rushers—Baugh and Duke Clark—each surpassing 100 yards, a first for the team since 2022. The Gators maintained control throughout, pulling away in the fourth quarter with a single passing touchdown in seven red‑zone trips. This victory marks Florida’s first top‑five win since 2020 and underscores the team’s resurgence after a 44‑point loss to Auburn earlier in the season. Florida will next face Missouri, while Ole Miss looks to rebound against Vanderbilt.
