When the 2025 college football season began, both Florida Gators and Tennessee Vols fans likely thought this weekend's rivalry game would have major postseason implications. Now, Florida has already fired their head coach and Tennessee is trying to avoid their fourth loss of the year.

Florida (3-7, 2-5 SEC) has won 17 of the last 20 meetings against Tennessee. The Gators will try to extend that string of recent dominance when they host the No. 20 Vols (7-3, 3-3 SEC) at The Swamp on Nov. 22 (7:30 p.m., ABC).

Playing Tennessee offers a shot at revenge for Florida after it suffered a crushing overtime loss to the Volunteers last season. Tennessee's 23-17 win over the Gators in 2024 snapped a five-game losing streak in the series and set the Vols on a path to the College Football Playoff.

Tennessee Volunteers quarterback Joey Aguilar announced a new NIL partnership just days before playing the Florida Gators, adding another deal to his growing portfolio.

Ole Miss (10-1, 6-1) jumped out to a 10-0 lead with four minutes to go in the first quarter, but Florida quarterback DJ Lagway led a quick scoring drive that ended with the sophomore quarterback scoring on a 5-yard run to narrow the score.

The Gators fired head coach Billy Napier following a 3-4 start to the season. Florida has gone 0-3 since then, falling by double-digits in consecutive defeats to Kentucky (38-7) and Ole Miss (34-24), and eliminating the program from postseason contention.

Florida football will finish the season with an afternoon kickoff against rival Florida State at The Swamp on Nov. 29. The game will air on ESPN2 and kick off either at 3:30 p.m. or 4:30 p.m. ET, depending on results from the games that take place on Nov 22.
