{"id":1605,"section":"sports","section_label":"Sports","url":"https://www.brokenews.co/sports/1605","headline":"Georgia and Florida set for another high-stakes Cocktail Party","dek":"The No. 3 Bulldogs face the No. 17 Gators Saturday in Atlanta with both teams coming off a bye and SEC standing on the line.","body":"Georgia and Florida meet again in the World's Largest Cocktail Party, and both sides have something to prove. The Bulldogs sit at 6-1 overall and 4-1 in SEC play after a 27-24 home loss to Auburn on Oct. 17, which snapped a run that included a 20-17 win at Alabama the week before. Only Kentucky has as many SEC losses as Georgia this season, so Saturday is a chance to get back on track.\n\nFlorida enters at 5-2 and 3-2 in conference play, coming off a 27-24 win at Texas. That game saw Tramell Jones Jr. make his first career start at quarterback after Aaron Philo went down with an injury. Philo is expected to be available this week, though it has not been confirmed who will start under center. The Gators have 20 rushing touchdowns on the season and are looking for their third win over a top-10 opponent this year.\n\nThe game kicks off Saturday, Oct. 31, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. ET from Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Georgia's defense has been opportunistic, recovering 15 fumbles, while the Bulldogs average 43 points per game and allow 15.9.","published_at":"2026-10-31T22:18:02.771782+00:00","source_count":4,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"CFB 27 sim predicts winner, score of World's Largest Cocktail Party","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/cfb-27-sim-predicts-winner-174308465.html"},{"outlet":"CBS Sports","publisher":"CBS Sports","title":"Florida vs. Georgia prediction, odds, time: Week 9 college football picks from advanced model","url":"https://www.cbssports.com/betting/news/florida-georgia-prediction-odds-time-spread-week-9-college-football-picks-best-bets/"},{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"Florida vs. Georgia Week 9 prediction: Bulldogs to trounce SEC rivals","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/10/31/betting/florida-vs-georgia-week-9-prediction-college-football-picks-odds-best-bets/"},{"outlet":"Fox Sports","publisher":"Fox Sports","title":"How to Watch Florida vs. Georgia: TV Channel, Live Stream, Time","url":"https://www.foxsports.com/stories/college-football/how-to-watch-florida-vs-georgia-tv-channel-live-stream-time-oct-31-2026"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Florida football vs Georgia, scouting report, prediction for Atlanta matchup","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/florida-football-vs-georgia-scouting-080305091.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"David Pollack predicts the winner, score of Georgia-Florida game","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/david-pollack-predicts-winner-score-091409413.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Game time: No. 17 Florida Gators vs. No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs — TV info, betting odds, keys","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/game-time-no-17-florida-100000830.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Georgia vs Florida Prediction: Odds, expert picks, team and player news, betting trends, and stats","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/georgia-vs-florida-prediction-odds-133000412.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Three Things Florida Must do to Defeat Georgia in Week 9","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/three-things-florida-must-defeat-133356566.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Why Florida RB Jadan Baugh has been motivation for Georgia football","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/why-florida-rb-jadan-baugh-144728436.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Here's why the Florida-Georgia game is a must-watch game in Week 9","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/heres-why-florida-georgia-game-181558230.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"USA TODAY names Florida as one of college football's biggest surprises","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/usa-today-names-florida-one-222106318.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Georgia vs. Florida prediction: Upset brewing in this SEC rivalry?","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/georgia-vs-florida-prediction-upset-224733467.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Ranking Florida's College Football Playoff resume ahead of Week 9","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/ranking-floridas-college-football-playoff-224254468.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"ESPN lays out Florida’s upset path against Georgia","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/espn-lays-florida-upset-path-235035606.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Where to watch Georgia vs. Florida today: Channel, live stream, time, schedule for SEC rivalry game","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/where-watch-georgia-vs-florida-070001940.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"How to watch Florida football vs Georgia today, TV channel, streaming","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/watch-florida-football-vs-georgia-080147345.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Georgia, Florida have played in Jacksonville nearly 100 years.
