It was really not that long ago that Florida-Georgia was a contentious rivalry for a minute. Florida had won 17 of 20 matchups between 1990 and 2009, and made it 18 of 21 in 2010, but that 34-31 win in overtime — on a Chas Henry field goal, lest we forget — began a four-year streak of one-possession wins in the game.

Georgia won the next three games in Jacksonville by four, eight, and three points, and the four years of one-possession affairs was the third-longest such string in the rivalry, following six straight one-score games — one an eight-point game in the first decade of the two-point conversion, but still — in the early 1960s, and five straight one-score contests bridging the Ron Zook and early Urban Meyer eras.
