It was a close one, Gator fans. What a way to cap a somewhat disappointing 7-5 regular season. Look at the bright side, if the Gators had to send out Urban Meyer with a win they could not have picked a better opponent. Joe Paterno is the greatest college football coach of all time, and Penn State football is one of the most celebrated programs in the country. Ahmad Black sealed the deal with an interception with 55 seconds left in the game.
Players of the game: Ahmad Black, Chas Henry, Jordan Reed, Trey Burton
Plays of the game: Ahmad Black 80-yd INT RET, Solomon Patton blocked punt, Leteree McCray return for TD
MVP: Coach Urban Meyer – final game as Florida Gator head coach
