'IT'S CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK'

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Gators put up a season-high point total, took a game by the largest margin of victory this year and held an opponent to a season low in total yardage Saturday. But there wasn’t much celebration from Florida after its 55-14 win against Vanderbilt. Not with a chance to clinch a spot in the Southeastern Conference Championship just a week away. With the win, Florida (6-3, 4-3 SEC) turned next week’s showdown with South Carolina into a winner-take-all battle for the SEC East. The Gators and the Commodores (2-7, 1-5 SEC) started slow as they combined for 10 possessions and seven punts in the first quarter, but that changed — at least for Florida.
