There’s one number on every Kentucky fan’s mind (31) but there are much more important numbers that will help determine the outcome of tonight’s game between Kentucky and Florida in Gainesville.

3 — Florida running backs who have rushed for more than 500 yards in a season.  Jordan Scarlett returns after a lengthy suspension alongside Lamical Perine and Malik Davis.

8 — Times Dan Mullen has beat Kentucky in the last nine years.  Austin MacGinnis’ 51-yard field goal game-winner is the only thing that could keep Mullen from an undefeated record against Kentucky.

8.8 — Percentage of tackles Kentucky missed against Central Michigan, according to College Football Film Room.  It was the SEC’s fifth-best.  Florida was second-to-last, missing 18.9 percent of their tackles against Charleston Southern.

72 — Years CeCe Jefferson has played at Florida.

91 — Yards Benny Snell gained after contact against Central Michigan, according to Pro Football Focus.  For those who like math, 73 percent of his total rushing yards came after contact.  He forced six missed tackles.

22.2 — Florida’s third down conversion percentage against Charleston Southern. Not. Good.
