I sat down with Caleb Jarreau, the sports editor at The Daily Beacon, the independent student newspaper at the University of Tennessee, to break down the matchup.
The Volunteers (2-0) are the first Southeastern Conference opponent the Florida Gators (1-1) will play this season and are undefeated entering the weekend matchup. Tennessee hasn’t defeated Florida at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, though, since 2003.
Redshirt freshman defensive lineman Jamari Lyons and redshirt sophomore linebacker Scooby Williams made their presence known in Ben Hill Griffin Stadium Saturday.
The Florida Gators (1-1) cruised past the McNeese State Cowboys (0-2) 49-7 Sept. 9. The win snapped a four-game Florida skid and secured the Gators’ first victory of the season. Head coach Billy Napier was pleased with his team’s performance in the commanding win.
The Florida Gators (1-1) began their three-game home stand by defeating the McNeese State Cowboys (0-2) 49-7 Saturday at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. Florida recorded its first victory since it defeated South Carolina 38-6 Nov. 12 last season.
The Florida Gators (0-1) will play their first home game of the season against the McNeese State Cowboys (0-1) Saturday. The game marks the first of three-straight home games for the Gators.
Florida senior safety Jadarrius Perkins has left the Gators football team and will enter the NCAA transfer portal. He made the announcement on Twitter Thursday.
Former Gators defensive lineman Gervon Dexter filed a lawsuit to void his agreement with Name, Image and Likeness group, Big League Advance Fund II.
The Florida Gators (0-1) fell to the No. 14 Utah Utes (1-0) 24-11 to open the 2023 season. The Gators suffered miscues in every facet of play and quickly fell behind to Utah, which was without its senior starting quarterback Cameron Rising.
The Florida Gators (0-1) fell to the Utes (1-0) 24-11 in Rice-Eccles Stadium Thursday night to open their 2023 football season. The Gators failed to convert in the clutch and ended just 1-13 on third-down conversions.
The Gators open the 2023 season with a daunting road trip to the No. 14 Utes. This is Florida’s first regular season game west of Texas since a 1983 trip to the University of Southern California. And like those Trojans 40 years ago, Utah will provide an early litmus test for UF.
This season’s matchup in Salt Lake City looks set to be another competitive game. I connected with Sean Overton, the sports editor of the Daily Utah Chronicle, to get his thoughts on the week one matchup in 2023’s first Know Your Enemy.
Florida coaches and administrators met with travel officials Monday afternoon and came to the decision to move travel plans to Tuesday, a day ahead of their original departure date, according to FloridaGators.com writer Scott Carter.
The Florida Gators have produced plenty of talent on the defensive end in recent year’s NFL drafts. A defensive player has been selected in the first four rounds of the draft every year since 2011.
Former Gators Tim Tebow, Dan Mullen and Meyer told the story of the behind-the-scenes events that occurred during this era for the Gators. What’s left unsaid draws the most criticism from students, but the documentary served as a source of inspiration for the 2023 football team.
The flashy moves and long, breakaway touchdowns Florida fans became accustomed to behind former Gators quarterback Anthony Richardson’s offense likely won’t look the same this season.
The secondary room went through several changes during the offseason. Of the nine defensive backs who recorded at least one start last season, five departed the team either through the NCAA Transfer Portal or through the 2023 NFL Draft.
Florida head coach Billy Napier prioritized the offensive line from the earliest days of his Gators tenure. He hired offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Rob Sale from the NFL, and added another line coach with Darnell Stapleton.
Untold, a sports documentary series distributed by Netflix, released “Swamp Kings” Tuesday.
The Florida Gators will begin a new era under center for the 2023 season.
