Florida vs. Georgia: Info, Odds, Where to Watch and More
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- It might not be fair to view a matchup with the nation's top-ranked team as a measuring stick for a program in the midst of a rebuild. But that is how Florida's rivalry bout with Georgia is being treated this week, much like it is every year, regardless of the state of either squad.
Can Billy Napier's Gators — 5-2 with a 3-1 conference record during Napier's second season in charge, riding a two-game winning streak and refreshed from a week off — topple Kirby Smart's No. 1 Bulldogs, winners of 24 games in a row who have stood atop the AP Top 25 for 19 consecutive weeks?
The task is tall for Florida in Week 9, but this is the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. History suggests that anything can happen here.
