HOOVER, Ala. -- The Gators and Bulldogs are now tied for the most come-from-behind victories in the SEC after Florida erased a 3-0 Mississippi State lead in their 22nd come-from-behind win of the season.
The top-seeded Gators beat the No. 5-seeded Bulldogs 12-3 after an 11-run rally in the eighth inning.

Ironically, Mississippi State came back from 3-0 deficit in yesterday's 4-3 second-round win over No.
