The Florida Gators are now projected to play in a familiar bowl game against a postseason opponent they have gotten too familiar with
The Gators last played in the ReliaQuest Bowl back in 2016 when it was still known as the Outback Bowl. They took down the Iowa Hawkeyes 30-3. They have played in this Tampa-based bowl game five times.
Before 2003, the two teams had never played each other in their century-old programs. Since they met for the first time, coincidently, in the 2003 Outback Bowl, they've met a total of five times., winning the first four meet-ups. Four of these matchups came in bowl games, while one came in the regular season.
Both teams finished 7-5 and unranked this season and received votes in the recent AP Poll. However, both teams had very different paths to this point.
