The backup quarterbacks will step into the brightest of spotlights when the fifth-ranked Florida Seminoles (11-0) face the reeling Florida Gators (5-6) in the Swamp on Saturday, Nov. 25. The game will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial), DirecTV Stream (free trial) and SlingTV (half off first month).

Tate Rodemaker and Max Brown will headline the latest matchup between in-state rivals.

Rodemaker, a fourth-year junior, will make his second career start in place of the injured Jordan Travis. The Heisman Trophy contender suffered a season-ending injury to his left leg against North Alabama last week, leaving Rodemaker to try to fill some of the biggest cleats in program history.

Rodemaker’s only previous start came against lower-division Jacksonville State in 2020 and he’s never played in a road venue quite like Florida Field after dark.

The Gators say the same about Brown, who stepped in for injured starter Graham Mertz last week at Missouri. Mertz broke his left collarbone in the third quarter, and Brown helped the Gators take the lead in the waning minutes before suffering another defensive collapse.

Brown, a redshirt freshman, now will make his first start against a team that’s won 17 consecutive games and has yet to allow 30 points this season.

Florida State dropped to fifth in the latest College Football Playoff standings following Travis’ injury and likely needs to win out to have a shot at making the four-team playoff.

The Gators, who have lost four in a row, need a victory in the regular-season finale to become bowl eligible. It’s also “senior night” for coach Billy Napier’s team and a chance for Florida to essentially ruin their archrival’s season.

When is Florida State-Florida?

FSU faces Florida at 6 p.m. (7 p.m. ET) on Saturday, Nov. 25.
