While the Gators secured a 31-24 win in a bowl rematch against East Carolina University, Florida coach Jim McElwain was not happy with how some of his player's conducted themselves, including running back Kelvin Taylor.

After scoring a touchdown in the forth quarter, Taylor was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct when he ran his finger across his throat. The Gators accrued 12 penalties for 105-yards.
