LIVE Updates: Georgia vs Florida

We here at SI Dawgs Daily will keep you up to date with the latest on Georgia versus Florida.

Georgia and Florida will meet again for the 100th edition of the rivalry between these two storied programs. Georgia leads the rivalry with a 53-44-2 record, but the Gators boast the most recent win. 

Mullen's Gators beat Georgia in 2020 44-28 on the back of Florida's explosive offense. The Gator's offense utilized their weapons, Kyle Trask, Kyle Pitts, and Kadarious Toney, to exploit the banged-up Georgia defense. 

After finishing 2020 8-4 with three consecutive losses to end the season, the last two being to Alabama in the SEC Championship and Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl, Florida is 2-6 against ranked opponents since beating Georgia in 2020. 

Mullen looks to be on the hot seat coming into today's matchup following two disappointing losses in recent weeks; the latest defeat saw LSU upset Florida in Death Valley. The Tigers victory at home dropped Florida out of the top-25 with a 4-3 record.
