GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Turns out Florida didn't need LB Jelani Jenkins to beat LSU. The redshirt junior played in his first game since he suffered a fractured right thumb against Texas A&M on Sept. 8, but he made no impact in the Gators' 14-6 vi...

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida may have the day off, but there are still plenty of things happening today that can impact the Gators throughout the rest of the Southeastern Conference season. Four future SEC opponents are in action, including next w...
