The Florida Gators and Georgia Bulldogs prepare for a fierce SEC rivalry as questions swirl about quarterback decisions and each team’s true identity.

Bailey Stockton is on other side of another Georgia football rivalry

Bailey Stockton didn’t just grow up right outside of Athens in Bogart. He was all in on Georgia football with a big tie to the school. His father, Patrick, worked as director of the Office of Biosafety at UGA. “I went to every game since I can remember,” Stockton told the Athens Banner-Herald. “I was always on the field, in the locker room. I was a big-time Georgia fan.” His favorite player was running back Sony Michel. “Every Saturday, I was always going to be in Athens for the game because that was pretty much my childhood,” Stockton said. Georgia showed interest in Stockton but as a walk-on. “I didn’t want to do that,” said Stockton who had 157 catches for 2,666 yards and 45 touchdowns combined in his junior and senior seasons catching passes from current Florida quarterback Aaron Philo. Stockton signed with Georgia Tech in February 2023. Philo joined him the following year to play for offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner, a former Georgia offensive analyst. Now they all have gone from one Georgia rival to another in Florida. The Gators will go up against Georgia Saturday in Atlanta in a top 20 matchup, but Stockton may not be

Myles Graham explains what Florida-Georgia rivalry means to him

Myles Graham has seen Florida ’s defense flash its potential throughout the season. The challenge now is making that version of the unit show up consistently. The Gators took an encouraging step at Texas, overcoming a rough opening two drives before settling in and playing some of their best defense of the season. Graham said the unit gained confidence by playing aggressively, especially when Brad White dialed up the pressure, but still has plenty to clean up ahead of a physical matchup with Georgia. There’s no hiding what this week means to Graham. Florida hasn’t beaten Georgia since he arrived in Gainesville, and as one of the veterans responsible for explaining the rivalry to younger players, Graham made his feelings clear: enough is enough. Here’s everything Graham had to say ahead of Florida’s matchup with Georgia. On Ty Jackson’s growth I’ve seen him grow since day one. The talent has always been there. It was just more of him knowing where to be, where to fit. I’ve just seen him skyrocket from the first day he got here. He’s going to be a special, special player. His closing speed is second to none. Honestly, he’s one of the fastest players

What Georgia coach Kirby Smart said about Florida football

The No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs face the No. 20 Florida Gators in the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party on Halloween. The 2026 version of Georgia-Florida will have a unique, new flavor for several different reasons. The Georgia - Florida game will be played at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, which will be the first series meeting in Atlanta. The game is also the first time Florida coach Jon Sumrall will face Georgia's Kirby Smart. Georgia has won five straight meetings in the series, but Florida has closed the gap between the two programs and is ready to upset Georgia. The Gators and Bulldogs are both well-rested off bye weeks and the game will be played at 3:30 p.m. ET (televised on ABC) as usual. Coach Smart has a lot of respect for this Florida team, which has a couple of major wins this season. "All of our guys got back last night and had a good couple of days (off)," Georgia coach Kirby Smart said on Florida. "Ready to get rolling on Florida. This is always a great tradition, a great game. Obviously, the venue has changed. I don't think that matters much to the teams playing in it. For the

OPINION: Georgia deserved its 2025 win over Florida despite incorrect call

The annual rivalry matchup between Georgia and Florida has a history of fierce moments and chippy scrums, and last year’s game was no different. Both teams benefited from defensive penalties — as Georgia conceded 65 yards in penalties, the second-most it surrendered in a regular-season game last season.

Florida gets new, but familiar bowl destination in SI projections

Florida has a new bowl projection from Sports Illustrated , although the destination should look familiar. SI now projects the Gators to face Nebraska in the ReliaQuest Bowl on Dec. 31 in Tampa, moving Florida away from last week’s projected Gator Bowl matchup against Wake Forest in Jacksonville. Tampa is not a new landing spot in SI’s projections, though. The outlet had Florida headed to the ReliaQuest Bowl against Penn State before switching the Gators to Jacksonville following their upset win over Texas. Now, after Florida’s bye week, SI has circled back to the same bowl with a different Big Ten opponent. Bryan Fischer’s latest projections pair Florida with Nebraska, creating a matchup between two of college football’s most recognizable programs. There is also growing agreement around that potential matchup. CBS Sports projects Florida to beat Nebraska in Tampa, and ESPN’s Mark Schlabach made the same pick in his latest postseason forecast. Florida enters Saturday’s rivalry game against Georgia at 5-2 and still needs one more victory to officially become bowl eligible. The Gators remain outside SI’s projected College Football Playoff field, but there is still plenty of opportunity to change their postseason trajectory. Florida already owns ranked wins over

Buster Faulkner talks Jones, Georgia ties and Florida's offense

Florida offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner has plenty of history with Georgia, but he is not interested in living in it. Faulkner returns to Atlanta this week with memories of Georgia Tech’s eight-overtime loss to the Bulldogs still fresh, but he said the focus now is on a new team, a new opportunity and a new challenge. He also acknowledged the irony of facing Georgia again in Atlanta after spending years on both sides of the rivalry. However, Faulkner’s attention remains on Florida’s offense and the growth it showed in the win at Texas. He praised Tramell Jones Jr.’s poise, highlighted the fourth-down completion to Dallas Wilson as one of the game’s defining plays and stressed that Florida must stay efficient, protect the football and finish drives against Georgia. Here’s everything Faulkner had to say ahead of Florida’s matchup with Georgia. On returning to Atlanta after the eight-overtime game That one will always stick with you. But on to a new team, new jersey, new opportunity, new challenge. You can’t live in the past, right? That was a great football game played between two great teams that night and didn’t come out on top. But you’ve got to move on. Like
