Gainesville, FL
The weather gods had their way with the Gators and Tigers today. Sloppy/rain conditions led to 4 fumbles returned for touchdowns. Auburn struck first with the strip return for TD to take the lead and seemingly gained control of the game. However, Florida game up with one of their own stripping crushing the Auburn running back and returning it 80+ yards to the house to tie the game up at the half at 17-17.
That play just before the end of the half gave the #1 Gators new life. Florida would start the 2nd half with a field goal to take a 20-17 lead. Then disaster struck for the Tigers on an option play the Gators guessed right and "intercepted" the pitch and took it to the house to increase the lead to 27-17. The Tigers never recovered and one more fumble on a punt returned for a touchdown sealed the deal as Florida defeated Auburn 41-17.
