Gainesville, FL (Sports Network) - Jeff Driskel passed for a score and ran for another, while the Florida defense remained firm, as the No. 14 Gators steamrolled the Kentucky Wildcats, 38-0, at the Swamp.

Driskel performed well once again, throwing for 203 yards on 18-of-27 attempts and rushing for 35 yards on eight tries for the Gators (4-0, 3-0 SEC), who racked up their 26th consecutive win over their conference rivals.

Mike Gillislee ran for 56 yards and a score, Quinton Dunbar hauled in three passes for 36 yards and a touchdown, while Jaylen Watkins returned an interception for another TD.

Morgan Newton struggled throughout as he subbed for starter Maxwell Smith, who did not play due to a shoulder injury. Newton threw three interceptions in the first half and finished 7-of-21 for just 48 yards passing for the Wildcats (1-3, 0-1).
