Event Analysis
Summary
The Florida Gators (5-6) face #5 ranked Florida State Seminoles (11-0) in a crucial rivalry matchup on November 30, 2023. This game has significant implications, with Florida needing a win for bowl eligibility while Florida State aims to maintain their undefeated season and College Football Playoff hopes. A key factor is that both teams will be starting backup quarterbacks due to injuries - Max Brown for Florida and Tate Rodemaker for Florida State.
