Florida and Georgia play in Atlanta on October 31, 2026, the first ranked meeting in the series since 2020. Georgia is 9-0 after an in-season loss since 2019, and the line sits at Georgia minus 11.5 against a minus 10 model, with a 55.5 total. The discussion is whether the public has dismissed Georgia's Auburn loss too quickly, and whether Florida's havoc-rate defense and Jaden Ball can make it a game. One read has taken Florida plus 11.5 for a unit, siding with the model over the market.
