GZ GameDay Links: Gators seek winning ways
Saturday, October 16, 2010 | Men's Basketball, Football, Volleyball, Scott Carter
Mississippi State head coach Dan Mullen and his Bulldogs visit The Swamp tonight in Mullen's first trip back to UF since he left after the 2008 season to become Mississippi State's head coach.
The Bulldogs have won three consecutive games and present a unique challenge for the Gators, who have lost back-to-back games for only the second time in Urban Meyer's tenure.
I'll be in the press box live blogging during the game and will provide a full report on GatorZone.com afterward.
