Florida has completed the Gator Walk, and we are under an hour away from kickoff against LSU.
Alabama and Tennessee thrilled in the late afternoon, and SEC fans are hoping for a fun nightcap in the Swamp. Gators fans, of course, were out in full force today, tailgating and preparing for what is hopefully Florida’s third-straight win.
This is Florida’s final home game for the next few weeks. Next week is a bye, and then it is off to Jacksonville for the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party and Georgia Game. Florida is at College Station to face the Texas A&M Aggies after that, and then the team finally returns to the Swamp to face South Carolina. With that schedule in mind, it’s easy to see why most have pegged this game to be the biggest of Florida’s season.
The Gators are seizing the moment. Tickets sold out weeks ago, and several elite recruits are on campuses to see what Billy Napier‘s crew has to offer. A win would go a long way both on and off the field.
