No. 8 Florida topped No. 5 Georgia 44-28 in an SEC showdown. Florida QB Kyle Trask completed 30 of 43 passes for 474 yards, four touchdowns and one interception, making him the first quarterback in SEC history to throw for 4+ scores in five consecutive games.
Trask got things started midway through the first quarter with the Gators down 14-0 when he hit Justin Shorter for a 14-yard score to cap off a seven-play, 75-yard drive. He then found Kyle Pitts for a 25-yard TD, Kemore Gamble for a 24-yard TD and Trevon Grimes for a 14-yard TD to build a 38-21 lead at halftime. Between those three scores, Trask threw a pick six to the Bulldogs.
At that point, Georgia had no shot. Running back Zamir White scored from 75 yards out on the first play of the game, but the offense struggled to get going after that. QB Stetson Bennett IV, who briefly left the game late in the first half with a shoulder injury, was 5-for-16 for 78 yards, one touchdown and one interception before getting pulled midway through the third quarter in favor of D’Wan Mathis. He did not fair much better as Mathis finished 4 of 13 for 34 yards with one touchdown and two picks.
The win pushes Florida to 4-1 on the year, while Georgia falls to 4-2 after being picked to win the SEC East in the preseason SEC media poll.
