The Florida Gators needed to win against the Vanderbilt Commodores in Gainesville to clinch the SEC East. Many believed that it was given that Jim McElwain’s club would run all over the Commodores, but that was not the case.
The Gators struggled with the Commodores all day long as they turned the ball over four times, three of them being fumbles. The Gators trailed 7-6 for most of the game after giving walk-on kicker Neil MacInnes a shot at the extra point early in the game, which he missed.
The Gators got on the board first as they drove down the field running back Kelvin Taylor put them on the board.
