Missouri cruises past the sleeping Florida Gators

The Florida Gators (3-5, 3-4) were embarrassed by the Missouri Tigers (4-5, 1-4) on the road on Saturday afternoon in Randy Shannon’s first game as interim head coach.

Florida never really showed up to the game as from the get go, the energy level was down and the Gators looked disinterested in the game.

Missouri started strong on offense and continued that throughout the game with a good rushing game.
