Report: Florida and Miami discussing future home-and-home series

The Florida Gators and Miami Hurricanes are in plans to renew what was once a great yearly rivalry game, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

The Gators and Hurricanes have played 55 times since 1938 (Miami leads 29-26). The two were annual opponents from 1938-1987 but have played just six times (including two bowl games) since then. Of course, the two will meet to kick off the college football season this year in Orlando.

The Orlando Sentinel is reporting that the two schools are in discussions to renew that annual rivalry “in the near future.”

Stricklin has previously responded on twitter saying that it is difficult to schedule opponents for out of conference home-and-home games.
