Nashville native Miley Cyrus is still hip, right? And then, who knows? We've been on the road at all hours of the night covering this beat like a bunch of "Ramblin' Men" and "Midnight Rider(s)," just like the Nashville-based Allman Brothers Band.

Erika Tymrak needed to prove she was not a rusted boot.
Florida defeated LSU on Saturday, and it did so despite minimal production from Jeff Driskel. He wasn’t satisfied with just getting the win.
Mike Gillislee was named Southeastern Conference Offensive Player of the Week on Monday for his efforts in Saturday’s win against LSU, but both he and coach Will Muschamp gave credit to the blockers.
Florida’s 14-6 upset victory against LSU on Saturday was a microcosm of UF’s season.
