Death, taxes and anxiety-filled games against the Kentucky Wildcats.
Florida may dominate this rivalry series over the last few decades, winning 33 of the last 34 contests against its division rival, but in recent years, it’s been much more competitive.
In 2014, it was the controversial delay of game no-call on a play that kept Florida alive in overtime in an eventual win. The 2017 game, of course, saw the “don’t cover receivers in the end zone” incident while in 2018, Kentucky ended UF’s 31-game winning streak. The last time Florida traveled to Lexington in 2019, Kyle Trask led a comeback in replacement of the injured Feleipe Franks and never relinquished the starting job.
This rivalry series has become much more intense, and this year’s UK squad is likely one of Florida’s toughest remaining regular-season tests outside of Georgia. Here’s everything you need to know about it.
