Gators head coach Will Muschamp is set to step down at seasons end and knows the importance of this game.

“[They’re a] really good football team. [I’ve] got tremendous respect for [Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher] and the job he’s done and his staff,” Muschamp said. “They’ve won a bunch in a row. Last time they lost was when the Gators were up there. They’ve done a outstanding job.”

Florida State got all they could handle from Boston College last weekend and Fisher knows that the Gators are pumped up for this game.

“We’re going into battle,” Fisher said. “These games are going to be dogfights. People are going to try and be the one that knocks us out, knocks us off, got nothing to lose.”

Florida is 2-1 on the road this year.  The Seminoles have won six games this year at home.
