The Florida Gators defeated the Texas A&M Aggies Saturday, their first SEC win since Oct. 8. The Gators now move to 5-4, while Texas A&M drops their fifth straight game, putting them at 3-6 on the season.
The game started off quickly, with the first quarter finishing 17-14 in the Gators’ favor. At first glance, it looked like the offenses were firing on all cylinders. In reality, both defenses seemed to forget that the game kicked off at 11 a.m. local time. Texas A&M battling an illness bug that impacted over 10 players also contributed to the early score.
The second half saw the Gators take control of the game on both sides of the ball.

The defense was able to get after Aggies quarterback Haynes King, forcing two turnovers in the fourth quarter that put Florida in a position to ice the game.
