    The Florida Gators pulled off a big 24-13 win over Central Florida on Saturday in the Swamp behind a really good defensive showing.

    Florida’s defense held a Central Florida offense down for the majority of the game and they were able to get pressure on the quarterback as they had five sacks in the game.

    The Gators’ offense got going early in the game and put up 24 points in the first half behind a strong showing from quarterbacks Graham Mertz and DJ Lagway.
