GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) – No. 23 Tennessee and 24th-ranked Florida will play as
scheduled Saturday in Gainesville. The Southeastern Conference announced that
the league opener for both teams will remain a 3:30 p.m. kickoff at Florida
Field. The decision keeps the game intact less than a week after Hurricane Irma
devastated parts of the Sunshine State. Florida athletic director Scott
Stricklin says the call was made after meeting with city and campus officials.
The stadium sustained only minor damage to signage.
