Due to stadium renovations in Jacksonville, the Georgia-Florida game will be played in Atlanta in 2026 and Tampa in 2027 before returning in Jacksonville in 2028. The game is under contract to be played in Jacksonville through 2031. This marks only the second time since 1933 that the teams will move the game for this reason. In 1994 (Gainesville) and 1995 (Athens), the teams met on campus when the Gator Bowl was being renovated for the NFL’s newest franchise, the Jacksonville Jaguars. Simply The Best (Since 2021)
Georgia owns the best record in the FBS since 2021 at 59-6. This run includes back-to-back CFP national titles (2021-22) and two SEC titles (2022 & 2024).
Georgia and Ohio State are the only FBS schools to win 11+ games in each of the past four seasons.
| Rank | School | Record |
| 1. | GEORGIA | 59-6 |
| 2. | Ohio State | 54-8 |
| 3. | Michigan | 54-10 |
| 4. | Oregon | 52-11 |
After an open date for both teams, fifth-ranked Georgia (6-1, 4-1 SEC) now faces Florida (3-4, 2-2 SEC) Saturday in Jacksonville. The game will be at Everbank Stadium at 3:30 pm on ABC.
Georgia leads the series 57-44-2. The teams first met in 1904, a 52-0 win by the Bulldogs in Macon. The teams have squared off annually in Jacksonville since 1933 with the game moving on campus in 1994-95 due to stadium renovations. UF is the home team this year.
Georgia owns a four-game winning streak in the series and is 7-2 against the Gators under Kirby Smart. Florida’s last win came in 2020, and after that game, Georgia went on a school record 42-game regular season winning streak that ended in 2024.
Georgia is averaging 33.7 points a game while the Gators come in with a 22.4 average.
The Bulldogs are allowing just 19.6 points a game while the Gators surrender only 20.0.

Georgia has trailed early and late in four of its SEC games this year. The Bulldogs have rallied to beat No. 15 Tennessee and Auburn on the road, and most recently, No. 5 Ole Miss in Athens. *Georgia blanked then No. 17 Alabama and Auburn in the second half while Kentucky’s lone second half score came on a 23-yard drive with 1:51 left in the contest and the Bulldogs up 35-7. Trailing 35-26, Georgia outscored No. 5 Ole Miss 17-0 in the 4th quarter in its 43-35 win.
The only league contest where Georgia led wire-to-wire was a 35-14 win over Kentucky while the only comeback that fell short came to No. 17 Alabama 24-21 in Athens that ended what at the time was an FBS-leading 33-game home winning streak.
One of Georgia’s main themes during the preseason and now in 2025 will be to play with “FPE.” *Fifty-four percent of Georgia’s roster consists of players in their first or second season here.
ATHENS – Head coach Kirby Smart, offensive lineman Drew Bobo, and inside linebacker CJ Allen met with the media Monday. They offered the following comments.
Head Coach Kirby Smart
Opening Statement
“We are getting ready to fire back up after a couple of days off for this big Georgia-Florida game. Excited again to go to Jacksonville and play in an awesome venue. It’s very unique to have the neutral site and have a split crowd. Every year we go and play in it, it’s very different from the SEC home-away atmosphere. It’s kind of weird because it sits right there in the middle, and it can be loud both ways, and it’s kind of a momentum game. Whoever’s crowd is into it at the time or who has the momentum. Our guys are back and ready to get to work.”
On Florida quarterback DJ Lagway…
“He’s a really bright player, got a bright future, great arm talent, got an ability to process information quickly, get ball out on RPOs and really hard to tackle. When you do get through on the rush, and if you ever get through, you’ve got to finish and finishing on a guy that size is harder than you think in terms of him and his escapability and ability to kind of lengthen plays. He’s done a good job, and he’s improved. We kind of watched him grow before our eyes throughout last year and this year, and he’s surrounded by a really talented group of wideouts and a really talented offensive line. Their physical and the offensive line have guys that have been playing there for a while, and that complements his style very well.”
