The No. 8 Florida Gators are set for another challenging matchup in Week 5, as they are set to take on the No. 25 Missouri Tigers. It's been a hot start to the campaign, as the program has quickly risen in the ranks thanks to some big wins within the first several weeks of the season. On Friday, former legendary head coach Nick Saban revealed what impresses him most about Jon Sumrall's team.

During a guest appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show,” Saban admitted that Florida's offense is what has impressed him the most so far. The seven-time national champion explained how he likes the number of weapons on the Gators' offense and gave credit to offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner for coaching the offense so well.

“I am very impressed with Florida, especially on offense,” Saban said. “These guys are scoring a lot of points. They got a lot of weapons, quarterback's playing well, they got a great runner, [and a] really good receiving core. I think they're going to continue to be explosive on offense…

“I think Buster Faulkner is one of those guys, [who], in his culture, he is creating toughness,” Saban continued. “And you do that in practice. One of the most difficult things I think in this day and age of football is have enough depth on your team to be able to practice that way.”
