As someone who is 18 and hasn't watched any CFB before 2000 I can easily tell who that is in that picture

Unranked and unappreciated, Florida played like irritated and dismissed Southerners -- and looked the part, also. The Gators took the field with Confederate flag emblems on their helmets as a not-so-subtle reminder to the Northerners that football, indeed, was played in this part of the country.
UF forced five Penn State turnovers and held the Nittany Lions’ vaunted offense to a mere 147 yards in a thoroughly decisive 17-7 upset before a Gator Bowl record-crowd of 50,286.

Ole Miss has never put a confederate flag on the uniform that I know of.

They were just sending a message to the Yankees back in the day.
