No. 10 Gators brawl with Mizzou in first win since outbreak
Kadarius Toney scored three times, Kyle Trask became the first player in school history with four touchdown passes in four consecutive games and No. 10 Florida (3-1) returned from a three-week layoff to handle Missouri (2-3), 41-17, on Saturday night in Gainesville, Fla.
The Gators’ easiest win of the season came after a COVID-19 outbreak forced the SEC to postpone two of their games. It also included a benches-clearing scuffle at halftime that involved both coaches.
Several players threw punches during the melee, but just three were ejected. The conference could hand down more punishments following a review.
It could be costly for Florida, which plays rival and fifth-ranked Georgia next week in nearby Jacksonville. The game is likely to decide the winner of the East Division.
