Didn't even realize they were playing this Sat until today.

I was living in FL during the 90's and this game was HUGE every season. Kind of miss that.

If I'm not mistaken, the winner of this game made it to the SECCG every year from '92-'02 except for '97 when UF won but UTenn won the SEC.

Here's to the restoration of one of the SEC's great rivalries.

Cant speak for UF, but we're trying to do our part to restore order to the SEC East

Mm... I remember losing a lot and people being really frustrated.

So, really, pretty much like it's been the last decade.

Once Alabama started dipping near the end of Stallings' tenure, it was THE game in the conference.

95: #4 UF, #8 UT
96: #4 UF, #2 UT
97: #3 UF, #4 UT
98: #2 UF, #6 UT
99: #4 UF, #2 UT
00: #6 UF, #11 UT
01: #2 UF, #5 UT

Since Spurrier left, it just hasn't been the same.

I miss those days. That was THE game of the year in the SEC. Now it's a fricking noon game on tSECN

It was a big game through most of the 90s for sure.

Missouri-South Carolina is the new big one now.

The new normal. Embrace it.

Which was Florida 80% of the time.
