1. All time series record: 2-1
Current winning streak 1 FLA
Largest margin of victory: 42-6, FLA 1962
2. Prior to joining the SEC, Texas A&M met Florida twice.
Once in Gainesville (1962) exactly 55 years ago (10/13/1962). We also played the most in the 1977 Sun Bowl in El Paso.
3. Joining prior to the 2012 season, A&M was the first addition to the SEC since South Carolina and Arkansas joined in 1992.
Why did the SEC add two schools in 2012? It's all about the $$$.
In 2011 the SEC distributed $248.1 million (or $19.5 million per school) - last year it was more than double that with $565.9 million total distributed which ended up being about $40.4 million per school!
4. This will be Florida's first night game at home since 10/3/2015 against Ole Miss.
5. Players to watch:
Chauncey Gardner, he had a career high of 12 tackles against LSU
Johnny Townsend, punter
Brother of:
Johnny leads the nation, leads the SEC and received the Ray Guy Punter of the week award. Way to go Johnny!
(Even tho we have an awesome punter, personally I'm hoping we GO FOR IT more this week on 4th & short)
