The last trip South Carolina made to Gainesville, Florida, was memorable, to say the least. The Gators won 17-16 on a blocked field goal at the end of regulation, and it was that win that propelled Florida all the way to the 2006 National Championship.

On Saturday the Gamecocks get a shot at revenge. Florida is currently ranked 4th in the BCS and if they win out they will play for the National Championship.

"They are coming in here hot. They are well coached by a guy who spent a few years coaching here. They will be looking to come here and get a win in the Swamp." said Florida quarterback Tim Tebow.

A win on Saturday would be Steve Spurrier's first as a visiting coach at the Swamp.
