No. 3 Bulldogs Ravage Spurrier (1966)

Winning Streak Prior to Game: Georgia (one)

Effect on SEC Race: Huge

Effect on National Landscape: Huge

What Happened:

A week after Steve Spurrier was awarded the first Heisman trophy in Florida history, the No. 7 Gators entered their meeting with Georgia with a 7-0 mark. On this day the Dawgs shut the Heisman winner down as Spurrier completed 16 of 29 passes for 133 yards and three interceptions.

The Bulldogs won 27-10 and Florida’s National Championship hopes had flown out the window. They finished right behind Georgia in the SEC standings as the Bulldogs were named Co-Conference Champions with the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Georgia would win the Sugar Bowl and finish with a 10-1 record. Florida would rebound from the loss and win the Orange Bowl on route to a 9-2 record.
