Last season Florida beat Georgia 27-3 in the annually SEC East showdown, this year the game is set for a 3:30 p.m. kick off on Saturday, October 29 and will once again be held at EverBank Field – home of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Looks like the cocktails will be flowing a day early this year for both Gator and Bulldog fans.
