No. 5 Florida routs Kentucky 63-5

[October 27, 2008]  GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- The Kentucky Wildcats came to The Swamp beaten up. They left beaten down.

Tim Tebow threw two touchdown passes, ran for two scores and fifth-ranked Florida thumped injury-depleted Kentucky 63-5 Saturday, extending its winning streak in the series to 22 games.

The Gators showed no signs of sluggishness coming off a bye and didn't have a letdown following a 51-21 drubbing of defending national champion LSU two weeks ago.

Now, they can focus on the game they've been looking forward to for a year: Georgia, a hated rival that stomped its way to a victory last season that essentially knocked Florida out of the Southeastern Conference race.

The Gators (6-1, 4-1 SEC) looked every bit ready for the rematch.
