The Florida / Georgia game is one of the more unique rivalries in college football, dating back to their first matchup in Jacksonville in 1915. Florida’s staff, led by Gator great Brandon Spikes, does a good job educating the roster on the history and importance of this game. Florida held a ‘Georgia day’ in the offseason, where transfers and freshmen came into the facility to learn about the rivalry.
One player that doesn’t need help understanding Florida / Georgia is junior edge rusher Jack Pyburn, who grew up playing high school football in Jacksonville and attending The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party annually.
