Maybe because I'm younger but I don't really care if it stays in Jax or not.

Are the games in Atlanta and Tampa going to be 50/50 like in Jacksonville, or will Atlanta just be the de facto home game for UGA and Tampa the de facto home game for UF?

Jacksonville works being only 35 miles from Georgia. Historically that was one of the main points of being in Jax, at least from the UGA perspective. To give UGA fans in South Georgia a chance to go to a game that is much closer than going up to Athens. There's also a fair amount of UGA fans in Jax.

I have a hard time believing a mass amount of UF fans are making the trip up to Atlanta or a mass amount of UGA fans are making the trip down to Tampa. Definitely put me down as thinking they should've done a home and home in Gainesville and Athens.

great question and one I haven't really seen discussed anywhere.
I just checked the 2026 donor guide and for the UF game it said "ticket allotment will be reduced by 14%". MBS seats 71K, Jax seats about 84K for this game with the temporary seats they put in for it.

So it would appear that it's definitely 50/50.

That's a good question. UGA students have always had an incentive to go to Jax because of a reduced class schedule the week of the game and Frat Beach (I think St Simon's Island?). UF fans don't exactly travel well but I'm gonna try to go since I live here even though I'm a cheap bastard.

A home and home series was layup for the SEC. Of course, Sankey just let the ball bounce right off his head.

This has nothing to do with Sankey. Where are you retards getting this? It's a UGA/Florida decision
