When the Florida Gators announced a home-and-home series with Colorado earlier this week, it was met with excitement in some corners and muted reaction in others.
The latter group chimed in with sentiments that sounded a lot like “Okay, it’s a home-and-home series, but ... it’s just Colorado.”
For those people, and the rest of Gator Nation, Florida has a remedy — the Friday announcement of a home-and-home series with mighty Texas that will take place in 2030 and 2031.
Per the announcement, Florida will first host Texas in Gainesville on September 7, 2030, then travel to Austin to take on the Longhorns on September 6, 2031.
