The stage is set for another colossal showdown between old rivals, as Georgia and Florida renew one of college football’s grand rivalries Saturday from the banks of the mighty St. Johns River in Jacksonville.
Both teams, as usual, are coming off open dates.
Georgia is riding high. The reigning national champions head into the game with a perfect 7-0 record, and 4-0 mark in Southeastern Conference play. Since losing to the Gators in 2020, Georgia has won 25 of its last 26 games.
Last time out, the Bulldogs rolled over Vanderbilt 55-0 at Sanford Stadium. It was a second straight impressive margin – Georgia defeated Auburn 42-10 in Athens the week prior – since Georgia survived a bona fide upset scare, escaping with a 26-22 win over Missouri.
