Florida will learn July 5 if it finishes in the top 10 most successful overall athletic programs in the country for the 38th straight year. UF is the only school to finish ranked in the top 10 nationally every year since 1983.
How points are awarded
Points are awarded based on the number of teams competing in a sport. A show’s total points are divided by the total number of teams competing on the school’s athletic fields, and that quotient ranks the teams in the USA Today Network SEC’s final all-sports standings.
