The Florida Gators college football team represents the University of Florida in the East Division of the Southeastern Conference (SEC). The Gators compete as part of the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision. The program has had 24 head coaches, and five interim head coaches, since it began play during the 1906 season. The Gators current head coach is Billy Napier.

The team has played more than 1,200 games over 111 seasons. Twelve coaches have led the Tigers in postseason bowl games: Bernie Moore, Gus Tinsley, Paul Dietzel, Charlie McClendon, Jerry Stovall, Bill Arnsparger, Mike Archer, Gerry DiNardo, Nick Saban, Les Miles, Ed Orgeron, and Brian Kelly. In addition, an Edgar Wingard-coached team accepted an invitation to participate in the first Bacardi Bowl. Six of those coaches also won conference championships after LSU left the Southern Conference to join the SEC: Moore, Dietzel, McClendon, Arnsparger, Archer, Saban, Miles, and Orgeron won a combined twelve as a member of the SEC. During their tenures, Dietzel, Saban, Miles, and Orgeron each won national championships awarded by major selectors while with the Tigers.

McClendon is the leader in seasons coached and games won, with 137 victories during his 18 years with the program. Allen Jeardeau has the highest winning percentage of those who have coached more than one game, with .875. John P. Gregg and John W. Mayhew have the lowest winning percentage of those who have coached more than one game, with .333. Bo Rein was hired in 1979 as head coach, but died in a plane crash on January 10, 1980, without ever coaching a game at LSU. Of the 32 different head coaches who have led the Tigers, Dana X. Bible, Mike Donahue, Biff Jones, Moore, and Charlie McClendon have been inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.

In American football, a sack occurs when the quarterback (or another offensive player acting as a passer) is tackled or forced out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage before attempting a forward pass or when the quarterback is tackled behind the line of scrimmage in the "pocket" without clear intent to rush.


This is a list of National Football League (NFL) players who have led the regular season in sacks each year. Sacks became an official statistic in 1982 and sacks from years prior do not count towards a player's career total. Michael Strahan of the New York Giants and T. J. Watt of the Pittsburgh Steelers hold the record with 22.5, which Strahan set during the 2001 season, and Watt matched during the 2021 season. In 2013, the NFL created the Deacon Jones Award to recognize the annual leader in sacks. There have only been two players who have led the league in sacks with 2 different teams, Jared Allen (2007 with the Chiefs and 2011 with the Vikings) and Kevin Greene (1994 with the Steelers and 1996 with the Panthers). The Chiefs and the Vikings have had the most players lead the NFL in sacks with 4. Eight players have led the NFL in sacks twice, and nobody has led the league three times.










The Southeastern Conference (SEC) is an American college athletic conference whose member institutions are located primarily in the South Central and Southeastern United States. The conference was formed in 1932, and originally consisted of 13 universities. Ten of these schools; the University of Alabama, Auburn University, the University of Florida, the University of Georgia, the University of Kentucky, Louisiana State University ("LSU"), the University of Mississippi ("Ole Miss"), Mississippi State University, the University of Tennessee, and Vanderbilt University have remained in the conference, while three original members have left the conference; the University of the South ("Sewanee") in 1940, the Georgia Institute of Technology ("Georgia Tech") in 1964, and Tulane University in 1966. The SEC has expanded on two occasions to reach its current 14 members, adding the University of Arkansas and the University of South Carolina in 1990 and the University of Missouri and Texas A&M University in 2012. The University of Oklahoma and the University of Texas at Austin are slated to join the conference in 2024, bringing the total number of member universities to 16.

Archie (left) and Peyton Manning (right), of the Manning Family were both named the SEC player of the year in their careers. A third Manning, Eli (not pictured) was named the SEC Offensive Player of the Year.
Steve Spurrier was named the SEC player of the year in 1966 and coach of the year on 7 occasions. He is the only individual to receive awards as both a player and a coach.

The SEC began playing college football in 1933 and established the SEC player of year award the same year. In 1935, the Coach of the Year Award and Jacobs Blocking Trophy were established.

Coaches and media of the Southeastern Conference (SEC) bestow the following individual awards at the end of each college football season.
