No. 3 Georgia defeated No. 17 Florida 27-8 in Atlanta at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, marking their sixth consecutive win in the rivalry. The Bulldogs capitalized on four Florida turnovers, including a 66-yard fumble return for a touchdown by Chris Cole late in the first half. Georgia, recovering from a last-second 27-24 loss to Auburn on Oct. 17, outrushed the Gators 217-48 and took a 24-0 halftime lead with scoring runs by Bo Walker and Nate Frazier.
Florida quarterback Aaron Philo was benched after throwing two interceptions, and his replacement, Tramell Jones Jr., also turned the ball over, including a fumble returned for a touchdown. Jones later scored on a 2-yard run to prevent a shutout, with Jadan Baugh passing to Dallas Wilson for the 2-point conversion. The game, traditionally held in Jacksonville, was moved to Atlanta due to stadium renovations, with next year's matchup scheduled for Tampa Bay.
