Florida hosts Campbell for first meeting at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium
Summary

Florida prepares to host Campbell at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium this Saturday in the first meeting between the two football programs. This matchup serves as a non-conference tuneup for the Gators before they transition into SEC play. Florida enters the contest following a season-opening win over Florida Atlantic, where the offense produced over 600 total yards and forced three turnovers. Campbell, a member of the Coastal Athletic Association, makes its debut against an SEC opponent. The Gators have maintained a strong record against lower-division teams since a 2013 loss to Georgia Southern. Following this game, Florida begins its conference schedule with a road trip to face Auburn at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
