Before the schedules are announced, there are always three dates Georgia football fans don’t have to wonder about. Georgia Tech will always be the regular season finale, the Florida game will always be on Halloween weekend, and an off week will always come before the Florida game.
But it wasn’t always like that. In fact, it wasn’t that long ago when Florida came into Jacksonville rested, while Georgia had a game the week before. Georgia has had the benefit of the off week since 2013. Before that, it was rare that to see Georgia have a week off before playing Florida.
