The No. 5 ranking seems about right for Florida. The Gators convincingly defeated Arkansas after an emotional victory the week before against Georgia. Despite concerns of a possible Georgia hangover, Mullen and Co. came out with all of the necessary energy and effort to beat Arkansas handily.
Florida put up over 60 points on offense without its best weapon in tight end Kyle Pitts. The only issue UF needs to clean up heading forward is limiting big plays defensively.
Alabama sits snuggly at No. 1 in both polls, and rightfully so. In a year unlike any other in recent memory, at least something is still normal.
