GAINESVILLE, Fla., Jan. 19 (UPI) -- Erik Murphy netted 15 points and Coach Billy Donovan logged his 400th career victory Saturday in No. 9 Florida's 83-52 rout of 16th-ranked Missouri.

Kenny Boynton added 14 points while Scottie Wilbekin (10 assists) and Will Yeguete chipped in with 13 apiece for the Gators (14-2, 4-0 SEC) in the first-ever meeting between the schools.

Florida connected on 59.3 percent of its shots from the floor in rolling to its sixth straight win.

The Tigers (13-4, 2-2) were hobbled by the absence of leading scorer and rebounder Laurence Bowers, who is out with sprained knee ligament.
