Miami trolls Florida’s whiteout ahead of first meeting in 5 years

The Miami Hurricanes and Florida Gators haven’t played since the Canes’ won on neutral ground in Orlando 24-20 in 2019. That all ends this weekend in a matchup with massive implications for both schools.

Billy Napier needs the win to kick off the all-important third year at Florida — especially after going from six wins his first season to five wins last year.

Mario Cristobal brought in a Heisman contender in Cam Ward to lead his offense — and hope it takes the spotlight off his own coaching woes.

The in-state rivals kick off a home-and-home series with Florida’s Ben Hill Griffin Stadium hosting in Gainesville and the Gators are trying to make it a scene, telling their fans to dress for a whiteout.

First Saturday in The Swamp… WEAR WHITE.

Stay cool for our first game against Miami on August 31st and wear white!

Well, you know who heard that message loud and clear? The Miami Hurricanes — who decided they will, indeed, wear all white to the affair.

It’s so good to have this rivalry back.
