In Florida’s season-opening win over Ole Miss, Dan Mullen’s squad broke an offensive record from the Steve Spurrier era with 642 yards of offense. The third-year Gator head coach joked that he expected a bottle of wine from the Head Ball Coach. Spurrier humorously responded by gifting a small bottle of Sutter Home. After UF’s SEC East-clinching win over Tennessee this past Saturday, Spurrier was back with another bottle of wine for Mullen, who shared photos on his official Twitter account.

The Sutter Home bottle was joked about on ESPN and re-gifted by Mullen to athletic director Scott Stricklin. Spurrier promised two bottles of wine for Mullen if he won an SEC Championship.
Spurrier may not have to worry about making that purchase. DraftKings Sportsbook has Alabama as an early 14.5-point favorite for the Dec. 19 meeting in Atlanta.
