Caleb Banks has led the charge for a resurgent Gators’ D during consecutive wins against ranked opponents. On Saturday, he recorded a career-high 4.5 tackles for loss, including 2.5 sacks.

The Rebels nearly found points on its second drive with a eight-play, 69-yard drive that found itself on the Gators' 11-yard line for a fourth-and-one. Rather than kick the field goal, Ole Miss elected to use its short-yardage package with defensive tackle JJ Pegues, who has six rushing touchdowns on the season.

Those complementary elements conspired to create a seismic shakeup of the playoff landscape. Florida’s 24-17 upset of No. 9 Ole Miss clinched a bowl berth for the hosts (6-5, 4-4 SEC) and knocked the Rebels (8-3, 4-3) from playoff contention.

Jaxson Dart of Ole Miss threw for 323 yards and two touchdowns in the loss. He was picked twice late in the fourth quarter on Ole Miss’ final two drives. The winning touchdown came on a Montrell Johnson Jr. nine-yard run with 7:40 left in the fourth quarter.
