The Florida defense looked like it had forced a 3-and-out on Florida State’s first possession, but the Seminoles came away with a first down when Chris Thompson was flagged for roughing the kicker.
The Gators ended up with the ball anyway, though, when Jabari Gorman picked off a pass from Jameis Winston on the next play, and Florida cashed in on the turnover when Austin Hardin kicked a 52-yard field goal to put the visitors up 3-0 with 12:37 left in the first quarter.
