The Battle for Number One
Florida versus Ohio State: The preseason No. 1 against a team living on the edge much of the season! Underdog Florida is certainly an interesting story, with the basketball team capturing the national championship back in April and now the football team getting a shot at winning the whole thing.
It has been a magic carpet ride, of sorts, for the Gators. This team lost to Auburn, rallied late to win at Tennessee (21-20), held off Georgia (21-14), Florida State (21-14) and South Carolina (17-16) in thrillers, and needed USC to lose to UCLA in December to get a chance to play here.
