Florida is set to start quarterback Tramell Jones Jr. against Oklahoma, replacing Aaron Philo after a poor performance in the loss to Georgia. Coach Jon Sumrall benched Philo following two interceptions, including one that Sumrall described as unprecedented. Jones, who previously won at Texas, has completed 70.8% of his passes for 579 yards and four touchdowns this season.
Sumrall noted the offensive line's struggles made it difficult to evaluate either quarterback, saying even Tom Brady would have struggled under the pressure. Jones becomes the first Florida QB since 1997 to win his first career start on the road against a top-10 team.
