    2008 Florida Football Post-Game Notes Florida vs. LSU October 11, 2008 Florida is now a perfect 5-0 at home against ranked opponents under head coach Urban Meyer. Coach Meyer is 4-1 all-time versus top-five opponents while at Florida and he improved to 14-5 all-time against ranked opponents (12-5 at UF). He has led the Gatorsto wins over six of the last eight ranked opponents and 11 of the last 14. The Plan to Win The following four items outline Coach Meyer’s Plan to Win: Play Great Defense Counting LSU’s touchdown at the end of the second stanza, the Gators have only given up 17 points to their six opponents in the first half. LSU tailbacks had 385 consecutive carries without a fumble before Christopher Scott fumbled with 9:46 to play in the first half. The Gators held running back Charles Scott to only 17 yards, marking the first time this season he has not rushed for 100 yards. Turnovers UF recovered one fumble and caught two interceptions for a +2 turnover margin in the game. The Gators have a +10 in turnover margin this year. Florida already has more interception return yards this year (199) than all of last season (104). The total is already a season high under head coach Urban Meyer. Score in the Red Zone UF has scored on 23-of-24 trips inside the red zone this season and has been perfect in five (6-of-6 today) of six games. The one time UF did not score was at the end of the Tennessee game, when the Gators ran on fourth and nine from the UT 12-yard line.
