first ranked opponent he faced at UF (No. 4, Tennessee, W, 16-7). The other three coaches whoaccomplished this feat were Galen Hall (1984), Ray Graves (1960) and Bob Woodruff (1950).

First-year head coach Urban Meyer faces his third-ranked opponent in LSU with Georgia andFlorida State still remaining on the schedule. In 2002, Ron Zook took on a school-record six foesranked in the polls during his initial campaign. Overall, UF first-year head coaches are 10-23 vs.ranked opponents. A look at the individual coaching records vs. ranked foes:Year Coach Record2005 Urban Meyer 1-12002 Ron Zook 2-41990 Steve Spurrier 1-21989 Gary Darnell 0-21984 Galen Hall 3-01979 Charley Pell 0-5

Urban Meyer is only the second coach in school history to lead the Gators to a victory vs. the first top-five opponent they faced (No. 4, Tennessee, W, 16-7). Past UF coaches were 1-7 against the firstprogram they take on ranked inside the top-five nationally. Ray Graves was the only coach to defeathis first top-five ranked opponent (10-6, W, at Alabama, 1963).

Florida’s 16-7 win against Tennessee marked the 50th game of Urban Meyer’s career as a headcoach. Following the game his record as a head coach stood at 42-8 (.840), the best record through50 games of any current head coach in the SEC.

SQUAD NOTES This year, Florida looks to continue to take care of the football. Through the first six games of theyear, UF has lost only three fumbles. In 2004, UF lost eight fumbles, which tied Ole Miss for the third-lowest total in the league. Urban Meyer-coached teams have not fumbled the ball in seven of 53games, and have not lost a fumble in 22 of 53 games. Only once in 53 games have Meyer-led teamslost more than two fumbles (at Texas A&M, Sept. 6, 2003).

Coach Meyer has stated one goal of the offense is to get the ball in the hands of the best players.UF’s top three receivers (Chad Jackson, Dallas Baker and Jemalle Cornelius) have accounted for 89of the 121 receptions this season and Jackson and Baker have brought in all of the eight TDreceptions by receivers this season. This season, Chad Jackson’s 59 touches rank as the secondhighest total in the nation by a wide receiver:Receiver School Touches1. Greg Jennings Western Mich. 67 (61 receptions, 6 carries)2. Chad Jackson Florida 59 (47 receptions, 12 carries)3. Dorien Bryant Purdue 50 (42 receptions, 8 carries)

Urban Meyer’s offense at Utah last year scored on all but two trips inside the 20-yard line and histeams have scored on 87.9 percent of all trips inside the Red Zone in his five years as a head coach.Team totals of Urban Meyer-coached squads over the last five seasons:Year Inside 20 Scores T D FG Score Pct.

Florida is the only school in the SEC to have a running back rank in the top 12 in rushingtouchdowns and a wide receiver rank in the top 25 in receiving touchdowns. Chad Jackson is tiedfor 10th nationally in receiving TDs, while DeShawn Wynn is tied for 12th.

Fifteen players nationally have scored four-or-more touchdowns in a single game this season andtwo are from Florida. Chad Jackson had four against Wyoming and DeShawn Wynn had four atKentucky.

On a 16-play drive spanning the end of the third quarter against Tennessee and beginning of thefourth quarter, the Gators converted 4-of-5 third-down conversions and ate up 7:42. The driveresulted in a field goal that put the Gators ahead, 16-7. Florida’s fourth quarter drive that helped sealthe win marked only the second time in the last 17-plus years UF put together a fourth-quarterscoring drive of longer than 7:40. Prior to that, UF had an 8:51 drive against LSU on Oct. 1, 1988,that went 18 plays for 83 yards and resulted in a field goal. Against USC in 1999, the Gators went ona 15-play, 68-yard drive that lasted 7:47 and resulted in a field goal in the fourth quarter.

The Gators’ 49 points in the first half of the UK game were the most points UF has ever scored inthe first half vs. a SEC opponent in school history. UF scored 42 points in a half against an SECopponent twice versus LSU (Oct. 12, 1996) and South Carolina (Nov. 11, 1995). UF finished thegame with 49 points, which are the most scored by an SEC opponent against a league team in agame this season.

Florida’s offense entered the 2004 season with its top quarterback, four of its top five rushers andits fourth-leading receiver. Again in 2005, UF entered the season with its top quarterback (ChrisLeak). UF returned eight of the nine players that carried the ball at least once and 13 of the 15players that had at least one catch in 2004.

A season ago, Urban Meyer’s offense was one of only two in the nation to rank in the top 20 inpassing (263.7 ypg, 19th nationally) and rushing (236.1 ypg., 13th nationally).

Last season, Urban Meyer’s offense was the only one in the nation to score 30-or-more rushingtouchdowns and 30-or-more passing touchdowns (36 rushing and 33 passing).

INSTANT REPLAY

WHAT’S NEW WITH THE GATORS...(seven). Baker has had 13 catches for 242 yards in the last two games.

Chad Jackson is tied for 10th nationally in receiving touchdowns with six. He has averaged atouchdown catch every 7.8 receptions this season.

Chad Jackson went over 1,000 yards in his career in the Kentucky game and has already estab-lished a career high with 47 receptions. No receiver had over 31 catches five games into the 2004season and no receiver had caught more than four touchdown passes. Jackson has caught sixalready this season. Jackson’s 47 receptions are tied for second nationally this season.

Through six games this season, the UF receivers have carried the ball 20 times for 159 yards andtwo touchdowns. The Gator offense averages 7.9 yards per play when a receiver carries the ball.

While returning the second-half kickoff against Tennessee, Andre Caldwell fractured the femurbone in his right leg and will miss the remainder of the season. Jemalle Cornelius missed theMississippi State game with an ankle sprain.

UF is one of only two schools in the SEC (Alabama) to have two different receivers with a catch of63-yards or more in 2005 (Chad Jackson, 80-yards vs. Louisiana Tech; Andre Caldwell, 63 yards,vs. Wyoming). Jackson joins Jacquez Green and Ricky Nattiel as the only Gators ever to catch twoTD receptions of 80-or-more yards in their UF careers. Last season, Jackson reeled in an 81-yardgrab from Chris Leak at Tennessee.

Chad Jackson has caught a pass in 18-straight games, which ranks third on the SEC’s active list:Consecutive games with a reception by SEC receivers (active)1. 23 Tyrone Prothro, Alabama2. 19 Mike Espy, Ole Miss3. 18 Chad Jackson, Florida

Against Kentucky, Jemalle Cornelius (eight catches, 138 yards) and Chad Jackson (nine catches,105 yards) became the first Gator duo to go over 100 yards in the same game since Reche Caldwell(115) and Jabar Gaffney (101) did so against Tennessee on Dec. 1, 2001.

In the game against Wyoming, Chad Jackson (three receiving, one rushing) became the eighthplayer in UF history to score four-or-more touchdowns in a one game, however, he is the second todo so in a season-opener joining Jack Jackson, who did so in 1994 against New Mexico (all of whichwere TD receptions). His 24 points scored are the most by an SEC wide receiver in a game thisyear.

Chad Jackson’s three touchdown catches against Wyoming were the most for a UF receiver sinceJabar Gaffney had three against Auburn on Oct. 14, 2000. They also tied Robert Redd (vs. Ohio, 10/5/02) and Paris Warren (vs. Colorado State, 11/6/04) for the most by an Urban Meyer-coachedreceiver.

This season, Florida returned three of its top-five receivers from a year ago (Andre Caldwell, ChadJackson and Dallas Baker). In 2004, UF entered the first game missing all three of its top receiversfrom the previous campaign (Ben Troupe, Kelvin Kight and Carlos Perez). UF had 13 of the 15players that caught at least one pass in 2004 return to this season’s roster.

The 2005 Gator roster includes eight different players who accounted for 37 of UF’s 45 receptionsof 20-plus yards in the 2004 regular season. O.J. Small was the only returning Gator with 20-or-more career receptions in 2004. This season, there are three Gator receivers who have done so(Andre Caldwell (62), Chad Jackson (32) and Dallas Baker (39).

Five of the top-10 leading receivers in the SEC from last year returned for the 2005 season andtwo of them are Gators. In 2004, Andre Caldwell averaged 57.4 receiving yards per game and ChadJackson averaged 54.0 to rank fifth and 10th in the league, respectively. Caldwell’s total is thehighest among any of the receivers that are back this season in the SEC.

The Gators entered the 2004 season without a tight end that had started a game or made a catchin his collegiate career. Tate Casey returned to the team this year after having eight catches for 127yards and four touchdowns as a freshman.

OFFENSIVE LINEAgainst Mississippi State, Florida opened with the following offensive line (LT Randy Hand, LG Jim

Tartt, C Mike Degory, RG Steven Rissler, RT Lance Butler). Degory, Hand, Butler and senior

Mike Degory, Lance Butler and Randy Hand each returned to the squad this year. Among lastseason’s members of the offensive line, they were the three who saw the most time in terms of totalplays: Hand (803) Degory (779), Butler (669).

THE DEFENSEFlorida leads the SEC with 31 three and outs on defense. Thirty-one of UF’s 77 opponent posses-

sions have ended in three and out (40.3).
