Since back when Spurrier was a coach, not a field. Such has not been the case for a long time. The Gators put together their streak at the "Swamp" because they were the better program over the last two decades and played like it in winning 16 of the previous 18 in a series that once was served up as the league's annual marquee matchup. What a run it's been, but now it means nothing, relative to Saturday night's renewal between the Gators (1-1) and 11 th-ranked Volunteers (2-0) in the Southeastern Conference opener for both teams, a highly anticipated sold-out showdown at Spurrier/Florida Field. Some were blowout UF victories (59-20 in 2007 34-3 in '19 38-14 in '21), others were memorable thrillers (Grier-to-Callaway in '15 Franks-to-Cleveland in '17). Those are Tennessee coaches who have been on the losing end. Those are the four coaches responsible for Florida's nine-game home winning streak in its rivalry series against hated Tennessee, a string that dates to the 2005 season.
