Since its inception in 1958, the Florida-Florida State series, better known as the Sunshine Showdown, has etched itself into sports lore as one of the most prominent rivalries in college football history. In this rivalry of sustained runs, Florida boasts a all-time record against the Seminoles, along with a mark in Gainesville. Saturday marks the first time since 2011 that both teams enter the game unranked. Overall, it is the 7th time since 1966 that both teams are unranked and 2nd since Saturday also marks the first time since 1959 that both teams will enter the game with a losing record (FSU was 3-5, UF was 3-4-1). Overall, Saturday will mark the second game in this storied series history that both teams have a losing record. Since 2015, both schools have an almost identical regular-season record. During that span, FSU is (.676) and UF is (.666). The Gators snapped their five-game losing streak last weekend against UAB, Meanwhile, the Seminoles captured their fourth win of the season last weekend against Delaware State, Florida is 13-7 all-time when finishing a season under an interim head coach. 1984: 8-0 (Galen Hall), 1989: 3-4 (Gary Darnell), 2004: 0-1 (Charlie Strong), 2014: 1-0 (D.J.

UF has scored in 371 consecutive games, a streak that is atop the NCAA s all-time list. Florida surpassed Michigan (365, ) earlier this season against LSU. Florida is 27-for-28 (96%) in the red zone in 2017, which is second in the SEC and tied for fourth in the country. In addition, the Gators have the second-most fourth down conversions in the SEC (11) and the second-best conversion percentage (68.8%).

That play is the only time in school history that Florida defeated an opponent with a touchdown on the final play of regulation. Antonio Callaway s catch-and-run against the Vols in 2015, which was also a 63-yard pass play, gave the Gators a victory that season. Florida ran the exact same play, Train Ride Open, Big Bend In. Since 1964, the Gators have ended games twice on walk-off field goals (Arden Czyzewski kicked a 41 yarder at LSU in 1989; Bob Lyle kicked a 41-yarder vs. Mississippi State in 1964).

SERIES HISTORY & LAST MATCHUP Series History Florida 34, FSU The Gators dominated the series from , winning six consecutive contests. Since 2010, UF has only bested FSU once in seven tries (2012) FLORIDA FOOTBALL #GOGATORS 2016 Florida 13, FSU 31 (Tallahassee) -- The offensive woes of the Florida Gators stuck out like a flaming spear against rival Florida State. Junior tailback Dalvin Cook continued his mastery of UF by rushing for 153 yards and a touchdown, while quarterback Deondre Francois passed for a score and ran for another, the totality of which was easily enough for the No. 15 Seminoles to beat the 13th-ranked Gators in their annual rivalry game at Doak Campbell Stadium.
