Auburn, Ala. (AP) — Jadan Baugh delivered a dominant performance, rushing for 162 yards and three touchdowns as Florida defeated Auburn 44-39 in the Southeastern Conference. The Gators, led by new head coach Jon Sumrall, improved to 3-0 for the first time since 2018 with a road win. Aaron Philo contributed 202 passing yards and a touchdown for Florida, while Vernell Brown III and Dallas Wilson provided crucial receiving support.
Auburn's offense struggled throughout the game, finishing with just 373 yards, mostly through the air. Quarterback Byrum Brown completed 20 of 35 passes for 271 yards, adding three touchdowns and an interception, including a clutch 35-yard Hail Mary to Chaz Nimrod with 24 seconds remaining. Despite a strong second-half effort, Auburn's offense failed to sustain drives, committing both sacks and penalties. In their next games, Florida will face No. 8 Ole Miss, while Auburn travels to Vanderbilt.
