Georgia Football vs. Florida: Live updates, scores, highlights

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Georgia and Florida meet again. It’s the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party and a rivalry that goes back to the early 1900s – they can’t even agree on when they first met though – with over 100 meetings. All-time, UGA owns the advantage, 56-44-2 according to the Bulldogs, with three straight wins to their name. Georgia hasn’t won four straight in the series since the early 1980s, and it’s been since the early 2000s that Florida did.

“I think they’re playing their best football,” Georgia head coach Kirby Smart said about the Gators. “I think they have a really, really good roster. A lot of players we’ve recruited and recruited against them, but they’re playing their best football, and obviously a talented group.”

“Really a lot of great size across the front on the offensive and defensive lines. I think Billy (Napier) knows that’s where the key is in the SEC in terms of length and size. They play a lot of players on defense. They’ve had a lot of guys play up front,” he continued. “You know, their three losses have come to three teams that are ranked in the top ten. At least I think they are. I don’t even know. But they’re really good teams, and they played those teams well. So, a lot of respect for Billy. He and I have worked together before. I think he’s building a really good program down there, and he is a tremendous football coach. And he does not leave any box unchecked. I can assure you of that and know a lot of their staff. So, should be a great game in Jacksonville. It looks like it’s going to be great weather. It’s always a really tough, hard-fought game. I think it’ll be one of the most physical games we play all year.”

Coming off of a bye week with a win over the then-top-ranked team, Texas, before it, Georgia is getting going at the right time. UGA has five games remaining in the regular season and finds itself currently ranked No. 2 by both the AP and Coaches with the College Football Playoff rankings set to release in a week.

As for Florida, this season has been a bit of struggle, but the Gators are starting to turn things around. After dropping two of their first three, Billy Napier’s squad has won three of the last four with the lone loss coming on the road and in overtime to a Tennessee team ranked in the top-10 at the time.
