The University of Georgia football team has only beat the University of Florida football team once. At least by my count.
Five times I’ve been in the stadium when the teams have played. I’ve watched Georgia win once.
I’m not alone here. There are others with more ticket stubs and lesser winning percentages. Trips to Jacksonville are rarely joyful for the Red and Black.
My first experience with the game came in 2002. I don’t remember it well. I was seven and my family had moved to Brunswick that summer. Close enough to Jacksonville and far enough away from Athens for Georgia-Florida to be the only game we could reach.
