Toughen their schedule" Florida has not played a regular season non-conference game outside the state of Florida since 1991. 4/13: Dan Mullen said he liked to use spring game attendance numbers to troll rivals, but when Florida announced its spring game attendance number of 39,476, a lot of fans and reporters trying to crack the code simply scratched their heads.

Bleich enters transfer portal after starting 8 games this year. Recruiting To date UF's 247 2019 9th ranked class has lost 5 total players. Removing the five players that will not be on the team UF would have been 17th in the 247 recruiting rankings and 8th in the SEC. (257.73 - 21 commits) The gators 2020 class sits at #10 in the 247 composite with 19 commitments and a 90.14 player average which is good for 6th in the SEC. UF is quickly closing the talent gap with the top of the league. Seems like Mullen knows what he’s doing. Edit: I will keep updating as this SEASON rolls along.
