Florida Upsets Georgia
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Matt Jones and Kelvin Taylor combined for 389 yards rushing and four touchdowns and Florida upset Georgia (No. 11 CFP, No. 9 AP) 38-20 Saturday, ending a three-game losing streak in the series and quite possibly saving coach Will Muschamp's job.
Jones ran 25 times for 197 yards and two touchdowns. Taylor carried 25 times for 192 yards and two scores.
The dynamic duo became the first Florida teammates to top the century mark on the ground since Jeff Demps and Chris Rainey against Kentucky in 2011. Jones and Taylor carried Florida to a much-needed victory in the series and in the Southeastern Conference.
Muschamp may have been the big winner. The fourth-year coach's future was clearly in jeopardy with Florida having lost 10 of its previous 13 games. Muschamp also had been 0-7 in this series, going 0-4 as a Georgia defensive back in the 1990s and losing his first three games as Florida's coach.
