The Florida Gators officially have its first back-to-back wins in nearly a year with a dominating defensive performance against the UCF Knights.

Facing a UCF offense that entered the game ranked No. 1 nationally in explosive rushing plays (46) and 10th nationally in explosive plays (67) overall, Florida allowed just 6 explosives to the Knights, 4 of which came on 2 UCF drives in the 4th quarter with the game no longer in doubt.

To its credit, UCF's defense held Florida scoreless for the entirety of the second half, aided by a missed 53-yard field goal attempt by Trey Smack. The Gators amassed 108 yards of total offense over the final 30 minutes.
