Florida holds off Kentucky in triple overtime

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Matt Jones ' 1-yard plunge in triple overtime gave Florida a 36-30 victory over Kentucky on Saturday night, extending the Gators' winning streak in the Southeastern Conference series to 28 games. Kentucky's Austin MacGinnis , who hit a 51-yarder to tie the game late in the fourth quarter, missed a 41-yarder to start the third extra frame. Jones had consecutive big runs that put Florida at the 1 and then slammed through the line on second down for the game-winner. The play of the game was Florida's fourth-and-7 conversion in the first overtime. Jeff Driskel floated a ball to the back corner of the end zone and found Demarcus Robinson for a 9-yard score. Kentucky coach Mark Stoops argued that the Gators should have been called for delay of game. In a statement Sunday, the SEC said the officials had not erred by not throwing a flag.
