Florida had its lowest rushing output of the season in its 20-17 loss to Auburn Saturday.


Sophomore quarterback Tim Tebow leads UF in rushing for the third time this season, but this time his 19 carries for 75 yards and a touchdown were not enough to get past unranked Auburn.

"We showed a lot of spirit and we fought them hard, but you have to give them all of the credit," Tebow said of Auburn. "We need to be able to do a better job of staying focused and having stronger communication."

Communication by the offense was a major problem for UF, especially in the running game. Florida coach Urban Meyer said he felt the lack of carries for junior running back Kestahn Moore had to do with the poor blocking that his offensive line showed throughout the game.

"We had the right calls at the right time, people were just hearing different things," fifth-year senior offensive lineman Carlton Medder said of the offensive line's communication issues. "We've got some linemen doing different things so that's the reason we didn't click in the first half."
