Arkansas Razorbacks Win Florida in Overtime, Ending Six-Game Losing Streak

Razorbacks defeat embattled Gators 39-36 in First Swamp Win, likely knocking Florida out of Bowl Contention

  • The Arkansas Razorbacks defeated the Florida Gators in an overtime game with a score of 39-36, marking their first win at Swamp and ending a six-game losing streak.
  • KJ Jefferson, the Razorbacks quarterback, made significant contributions to the victory by throwing for 255 yards, two touchdowns, and running for 92 yards. The winning score was a 4-yard one to Tyrone Broden in overtime.
  • The victory was also significant for Arkansas as their new interim play caller, Kenny Guiton, led the team to achieve a season-high 481 yards, showing a marked improvement from their performances in previous games.
  • The defeat likely eliminates the Florida Gators from bowl contention. The Gators will face significant challenges in their final three games against ranked teams, which could potentially make their 6th win for the season a far-off possibility.
  • Despite being down 14-0 early in the game, Florida made a comeback to take the lead in the second half, but ultimately lost due to several special teams errors, most notably missing a 44-yard field goal attempt at the end of regulation.
