Florida hosts in-state opponent USF of the Big East for Week Two action in The Swamp. Florida kicked off the season with a 34-12 win against Miami University, while USF posted a 59-14 victory at home against Stony Brook.
This marks the first meeting between the schools, but it is UF’s 10th game against an in-state opponent during head coach Urban Meyer’s tenure. The Gators hold a 9-0 mark in the previous contests against other Florida schools during that time.
In its 2010 debut, UF extended its SEC-best opening-day winning streak to 21 games, the second-longest such active streak in the nation.
Florida and USF were the only two teams in the country to record four interceptions in the opening week, and Janoris Jenkins’ 67-yard interception return for a touchdown was the longest interception return in the nation during Week One.
