I would imagine when you drive across that Georgia line practically everybody in the state is a Georgia fan. As soon as you get into Florida I would think you would see a pretty good split of UF and FSU fans. I don't see the so called home field advantage for Florida but this is my perspective as an outsider who has never been.

It's not a home field advantage for either school, just a shorter drive from Gainesville. South Ga and North Florida are pretty much the same. Jax has huge alumni assoc. for both schools.
Moving the game would really downgrade the atmosphere.
Not too mention the ill will brought to the SSI, Amelia, Jax area; the game is too important to the economy. And it's great where it is.

Those who want it moved , really just don't get it .. And those who claim it's a 50/50. Needs to expand their group of friends , because I guaranteed it's well over 95% to keep it in Jax.
