佐治亚州富尔顿县亚特兰大市佛罗里达与佐治亚宿敌大战10月31日移师梅赛德斯-奔驰体育场：排名第17对第3下午3时30分开球
一年一度的佛罗里达大学与佐治亚大学橄榄球宿敌大战将于10月31日星期六下午3时30分在亚特兰大市梅赛德斯-奔驰体育场开球，由美国广播公司（ABC）转播。据佛罗里达大学体育部10月29日发布的前瞻，今年比赛因杰克逊维尔的恒信银行体育场正在翻修而移师亚特兰大室内场馆，这也是这场传统大战氛围上的一次变化。
排名第17的佛罗里达短吻鳄队目前战绩5胜2负、东南联盟3胜2负，排名第3的佐治亚斗牛犬队为6胜1负、联盟4胜1负，两队都处在大学橄榄球季后赛席位竞争中。
佛罗里达队线卫迈尔斯·格雷厄姆表示，这是一场宿敌大战，计入总战绩也计入联盟战绩，是一生一次的机会，球队渴望处在这个位置。佐治亚队在主教练柯比·斯马特带领下自2016年以来一直是季后赛常客，而佛罗里达队从未入围季后赛，这也是新任主教练乔恩·萨姆罗尔上任的原因之一。萨姆罗尔表示，要想成为最强就必须击败最强，赢下斗牛犬队将加速球队建设进程。
佐治亚队已在双方交锋中取得五连胜，佛罗里达队本场将力争终结这一纪录。
No. 17 Florida vs. No. 3 Georgia Rivalry Game Moves to Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium on October 31, Kickoff at 3:30 p.m.
The annual Florida-Georgia football rivalry game will kick off at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, October 31, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, broadcast on ABC. According to a preview issued by University of Florida athletics on October 29, the game moves to Atlanta this year because EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville is under renovation, a change of setting for the storied rivalry.
The No. 17 Florida Gators are 5-2 overall and 3-2 in the SEC, while the No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs are 6-1 and 4-1 in the conference, with both teams in the College Football Playoff race. Florida linebacker Myles Graham said it is a rivalry game that counts in both the overall and conference records, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and that the team wants to be in this position.
Georgia has been a playoff regular under head coach Kirby Smart since 2016, while Florida has never reached the playoff, one of the reasons first-year head coach Jon Sumrall was hired. Sumrall said that to be the best you have to beat the best, and that beating the Bulldogs would speed up the building of his program. Georgia has won five straight in the series, a streak Florida will try to end on Saturday.
