Georgia 198.2 – Gators 196.65

Wow.

Georgia gymnastics posted its best score at home since 1998 Saturday, proving their mettle as the nation’s No. 1 team with a very impressive 198.200-196.650 victory over rival Florida.

The Gym Dogs were firing on all cylinders all day, charting 16 scores of 9.9 or better, capped off by a perfect 10 on floor exercise from senior Courtney Kupets. They posted season-highs on every event, with a 9.850 the lowest score they counted all afternoon.

Not bad for a team that coach Suzanne Yoculan doubted as the nation’s No. 1 earlier in the week.

“I’m not going to sleep for two days,” she said.
