Gator Power Rating – Week 4

9. Florida Gators (3-1)

What Dan Mullen has done in transforming Florida from a passing juggernaut to a rushing juggernaut in less than a year has been remarkable to watch. Though the Gators got off to a sluggish start, they turned it on in the second half in a 38-14 win over Tennessee. Emory Jones had his best game as the starting quarterback, going 21-of-27 for 209 yards and two touchdowns, while rushing for 144 yards. Florida ran for 283 yards — a week after gaining over 240 against Alabama — and averaged 7.1 yards per carry. Anthony Richardson missed a second straight game but in the end, Florida was best served to rest him for another week
