Miami is a dying brand. Just leave them out and take UCF.

With us entering the SEC....
And Florida is the most southern school but we certainly aren't the most southern. Saddle up.

Correction, added A&M 4 times in those 5 seasons.

They actually had a rotation set. The problem is that we've had three bridge schedules in a short period of time (2012, 2013, 2020) and have two more coming up (2024, 2025) and for some reason, they seem to default to some of the same matchups each time. For Florida, it means that they've taken away two games vs Auburn which is one of our oldest rivals, and they've added three games vs A&M.

Notre Dame?

This is why you are better off transferring in the December window instead of waiting until after Spring ball. No way would he have absorbed the culture of UGA as quickly if he waited until the spring transfer window.

Texas Longhorns - 2024 Schedule with a few SEC dates
Do you think any new coach wants to come in to that same schedule, except swap out USF for UCF?

The SEC really seems to think Florida has a rivalry with A&M.

Leave it to the ACC to make even realignment boring.

Get a necklace with just their middle finger, so they can still flip off the opposing team with the gloves on next time.

I had the same look at that game, Steve. Should have beaten that Miami team by 5 touchdowns.

Yes. It was Swaim both times. Not even sure if this is an additional claim by him or if this other Twitter account just brought it back from the dead 6 weeks later for clicks.

Back to the original question to see if I can add anything. Gainesville's geographic location within the state is great. It's a college city in that the campus does dominate the culture but it also has some actual real-city amenities like museums, regional theater, etc. since UF is the flagship. There's a significant amount of the population there connected to Shands, UF's Teaching Hospital and a large grad student population so it's both a UF connection and also a big demographic separate from an 18 year old underclass student. It's also about 2-2.5 hours from Orlando, Tampa, and major beaches on both the gulf and Atlantic, and also about an hour from Jacksonville. So it's never far from a "big city" or touristy things. Plenty of in-state kids who couldn't get to UF end up at FSU, UCF, or USF, so it's not unusual for UF students to be traveling to Tally/Orlando/Tampa to party or hang out with old-friends or hosting friends from those other schools. Your nephew would soon enough have friends/roommates with connections to one or all of those cities and an excuse to roadtrip. -- If your nephew is into outdoorsy stuff, Gainesville is basically in the heart of Florida's natural springs. Lots of state parks in the area. Activities like tubing the Itchitucknee and walking down the Devil's Millhopper are part of the student experience. -- If your nephew likes sports, UF is an "everything school" like Texas. A lot of students latch on to something other than just football or basketball. It's a great way to spend time on the cheap. My friends and I went to lots of soccer, volleyball, and baseball games. -- Weather wise, summer is hot and humid. Gainesville gets both Florida extremes. It's interior enough that it doesn't get the coastal breezes. I swear that Orlando has less humidity in August. In the winter, it's usually the edge of the frost/freeze belt. -- Like any big school, UF can be intimidating for a Freshman away from home for the first time, but there's no shortage of activities and things to do. Some kids do better closer to home or on a smaller campus. That's really up to the kid and what they want and need.- Tell me about Florida
Shit, even Sonny's BBQ had like a 25 cent beer night back in the day. I had to look up and see if they still had Beat the Clock but I guess Grog House closed last year.- SEC Catch-all Thread
If it's anything like how the SEC handles the chomp, you'll be more likely to be flagged for celebrating by doing horns up than an opponent is for taunting by doinghorns down.- Tell me about Florida
Losing the ghetto sucked. So much of my regular schoolday activity was there. I worked in the Dean of Students office so regularly walked over to the Black Student Union or Institute of Hispanic Culture since they were only connected to the campus network by modem. I'd usually grab lunch around there and check out Schoolkids or Hyde n Zeeks to see if they had any new used CDs. I've heard that the Mexican place that took over at CJ's is decent but I haven't tried it yet. Kids today have The Top, Mojo, Dragonfly, plus they've got access to Blackadder, Swamphead, and First Magnatude. We thought we were cool because we sprung for Killians Irish Red. I think the other Leonardo's location is still open. I hear that Maui Teriyaki is back too. - SEC Catch-all Thread
