Buy Razor Ray’s COLLEGE FOOTBALL Picks!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Murphy was solid in his first career start for the Gators, after a full week of pundits suggest that he probably should have been the starter in the first place.<\/p>\n Murphy threw for 156 yards and a score, adding another five-yard score on the ground. He had 36 rushing yards in the game. Running back Matt Jones was the team\u2019s offensive catalyst, rushing for 176 yards and a score on 28 carries. In total, the Florida offense accumulated 402 yards of offense against a stingy Kentucky defense.<\/p>\n A Florida defense that took a big hit during the week when they lost senior defensive tackle Dominique Easley for the season overcame that loss and played quite well, limiting Kentucky to just seven points. Kentucky\u2019s only points came off a fake field goal that resulted in a 25-yard score. [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n The team intercepted Kentucky quarterback Maxwell Smith in the end zone to limit further damage. In the end, Kentucky was limited to just 173 yards of offense.<\/p>\n The Razorbacks experienced a setback in their last outing, running into a buzzsaw in the form of Johnny Manziel\u2019s Texas A&M Aggies. The team dropped the game, 45-33. The team was helped out by the return of quarterback Brandon Allen who completed 17 of 36 passes for 282 yards and a pair of scores. Allen did not appear to lose a beat after missing last week\u2019s game against Rutgers, capping off the team\u2019s opening drive with a 12-yard touchdown pass. Allen\u2019s favorite target on the night was Hunter Henry, who hauled in four balls for 109 yards. Running back Alex Collins rushed for 116 yards on 14 carries, adding a score on the ground. In total, Arkansas accumulated 483 yards of offense.<\/p>\n The Aggies attacked the Razor back defense in a way we don\u2019t often see from them \u2013 on the ground. Johnny Manziel completed 23 of 30 passes for 261 yards, adding another 59 yards on the ground. A&M accumulated a total 523 total yards. 262 of those yards came on the ground, with the team racking up 150 rushing yards in the second half to keep the Arkansas offense off the field.<\/p>\n Tyler Murphy brings a dimension to the Florida offense that just wasn\u2019t there when Jeff Driskel was the starter. Arkansas can be proud of what they\u2019ve done so far under Bret Bielema, but they aren\u2019t ready to compete with SEC powerhouses like Florida.<\/p>\n The Razorbacks are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 road games.<\/p>\n The play: Florida -10.5<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Arkansas vs Florida NCAA Football Handicapping The Tyler Murphy-era in Gainesville continues on Saturday when the 18th-ranked Florida Gators host the Arkansas Razorbacks.
