After a standout showing in Florida's road victory against Tennessee on Saturday, sophomore quarterback Jeff Driskel was voted as the Southeastern Conference's Offensive Player of the Week.
"It's a great honor," Driskel said.
Driskel passed for 219 yards on 14-of-20 passing with two touchdowns. He also rushed for 81 yards on eight carries, including several impressive scrambles. Driskel racked up 300 of the team's 555 yards of total offense, which was the team's highest output in a conference game since 2001.

Man, I didn't see this coming. Very pleasantly surprised, although looking back those are pretty impressive stats for this game. To me it seemed the game was easy for Driskel. Guess this is why he was the # 1 rated QB in his class. Thing is I think he can do a lot better. Look out SEC we have something special going on in Gainesville. Go Gators!!
