The upcoming season presents a daunting challenge for the Florida Gators football program, as they face a lineup of formidable opponents. With the addition of the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners to their schedule, many believe that Florida’s 2024 schedule is one of the most challenging in the fall.
On3’s Andy Staples discussed this topic on his streaming channel, noting how the Gators were dealt a short end of the stick when it comes to equality among schools in the Southeastern Conference. According to Staples, Florida’s schedule includes tough matchups against Miami, UCF, Florida State, Georgia, Texas, LSU, Ole Miss, and Florida State again.
Staples emphasized that while other teams like Texas and Oklahoma may also face tough opponents in their schedules, it is particularly challenging for teams like Florida due to their strong opponents. This lack of parity in SEC scheduling is evident in the difficulties faced by teams like the Gators.
The Florida Gators’ 2024 season opener will take place on August 31st at 3:30 p.m. ET against Miami in Gainesville, Florida. This game will be broadcast on ABC Sports. Fans can stay updated on all things related to the Gators by following @GatorsWire on X and liking their page on Facebook.
