GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- When Florida coach Jim McElwain got to his desk Sunday, there was a folder sitting on top labeled Presbyterian. One peek inside revealed a significant mistake.I was like, `Wait a minute. Somethings wrong here, McElwain said Monday. I dont have disrespect for them, but this didnt look like Presbyterian.Nope, it was No. 16 LSU.Different jerseys. Different numbers. Much different talent.Hurricane Matthew, which forced Florida to reschedule a home game against the Tigers and cancel a home game against lower-division Presbyterian, could end up costing the 21st-ranked Gators a trip to the Southeastern Conference title game. Theres little doubt McElwains banged-up team would have been better off playing LSU last month -- in Gainesville.Now, Tigers star running back Leonard Fournette is healthy , Florida is down seven starters -- including their top three tacklers -- and the game is being played in Baton Rouge.To me, you want to go play somebody at their best, McElwain said. I dont ever look for a win to have an asterisk on it, does that make sense?It might make sense. But its surely not ideal for Florida (7-2, 5-2 SEC), which likely needs a victory Saturday to clinch the Eastern Division. The Gators could still wrap up a spot in the title game with a loss to the Tigers, but they would need Tennessee to lose to Missouri or Vanderbilt.And Florida will be without at least seven starters Saturday, including quarterback Luke Del Rio (shoulder).You can sit and cry about it or do whatever or you can just move on, McElwain said. Thats what weve got to do. You know what, it is what it is. Were going there to play and thats the way it is.McElwain also ruled out center Cam Dillard (knee), left tackle David Sharpe (foot), defensive end Bryan Cox Jr. (ankle), safety Marcus Maye (arm) and linebackers Alex Anzalone (arm) and Jarrad Davis (ankle). Two others, guard/center Tyler Jordan (ankle) and defensive end CeCe Jefferson (ankle), are questionable to play.Theyre struggling with injuries, so its going to be 10 times harder now, LSU defensive end Arden Key said. Either way it goes, if they played here or there, it was going to be hard for them to get the W. I dont feel like they were going to get the win when we play then or now.Florida and LSU (6-3, 4-2) were initially scheduled to play Oct. 8 at Florida Field. When the threat of the Category 4 hurricane forced the SEC to postpone the game, LSU took a hard stance on not giving up a home game to reschedule.The Tigers said Florida wanted to postpone it because Del Rio was coming off a sprained knee and two defensive linemen looked like they wouldnt play. Now, the Gators would love to have that short of an injury report.That part bothered me a little bit, Florida safety Nick Washington said. They think we had a choice of avoiding this game when theres a hurricane. Not just me but a lot of my teammates, a lot of us had family in places where the hurricane was hitting. It kind of bothered us a little bit, but we had to let it go.What was supposed to be a relatively relaxing week and a game against a seemingly overmatched opponent from the Football Championship Subdivision has become an all-or-nothing affair against one of the hottest teams in the country and in the one the nations least-hospitable stadiums.The Tigers have won four of five games, the only loss a 10-0 setback against top-ranked Alabama, have Fournette at full speed and have allowed the fewest touchdowns (10) in the nation.Florida, meanwhile, continues to struggle offensively and will have to shuffle guys up front again since it will be without at least two linemen. Its a scenario the Gators surely would be able to handle if the matchup -- or the folder on McElwains desk -- really was Presbyterian.Its the biggest game of the year because its the next one, quarterback Austin Appleby said. With that said, we know whats at stake. We want to go back to Atlanta. Thats why you come to Florida. You want to play for championships. Weve got everything that we want right in front of us.---AP Sports Writer Brett Martel in Baton Rouge contributed to this report.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org Tyvon Branch Jersey . Oaklands loss to Seattle clinched the ALs best record for the Red Sox with one day to spare in the regular season. "I think everybody was kind of watching," catcher David Ross said.

Kareem Martin Jersey . -- Tony Stewart is 20 pounds lighter and has a titanium rod in his surgically repaired right leg. If Orlando City SC is going to make its first postseason appearance in its brief history, it needs to improve a dreadful defensive record when visiting D.C. United on Saturday evening.The Lions travel to RFK Stadium after allowing four goals in each of their back-to-back losses at the Los Angeles Galaxy and again at home against the Columbus Crew.Overall, Orlando (7-9-13, 34 points) has conceded a league-worst 53 goals through 29 matches of its second season since joining Major League Soccer as a 2015 expansion franchise.The Lions enter the weekend tied with D.C. (7-9-13, 34) and two points out of the sixth and final Eastern Conference playoff spot. Both teams have a game in hand on the sixth-place New England Revolution.Orlando coach Jason Kreis is at least heartened by the health of his squad, which welcomed defender Rafael Ramos and midfielder Pedro Ribeiro back from injury to the game day roster against Columbus. Neither has played since the spring.You want to have to make difficult choices, Kreis tolld The Orlando Sentinel on Thursday.dddddddddddd You want to have to deliver difficult messages to players who expect to play, and everybody wants to be a part of things right now.D.C. would trail Orlando in the standings without very late heroics in its last two matches, both draws.Two weekends ago, it took two goals after the 88th minute to salvage a 2-2 draw at the New York Red Bulls. Last weekend, Bobby Boswells first goal of the season -- a header two minutes into second-half stoppage time -- rescued a 2-2 tie against the host Chicago Fire.After the latter, D.C. coach Ben Olsen expressed hope his side could still go on a late run.Well find that sweet spot where were putting together full games of high energy, focus, and quality soccer, he told MLSSoccer.com. I believe in this team. I believe its a playoff team, and I think the players believe that, but youve gotta do it.
